We're very excited to announce that a whole slew of Scruffy music - unavailable for years - will be released in August 2014. Sony Music has remastered all four of the band's official releases (2 LPs and 2 EPs - 38 tracks!) and will be issuing them as Time Never Forgets: The Anthology (86-88). Meanwhile, the good folks at Omnivore Recordings are assembling a collection of previously-unreleased and rare recordings. These two projects should be amazing companion pieces and together will represent "the complete studio works" of the band. We're very happy that the music will again be available for our fans, old and new.
