Remastered by Jack Shirley at The Atomic Garden (Deafheaven, Joyce Manor).Īvailable for the first time in over a decade, the 30th Anniversary Edition of Slip was completely remastered for vinyl using the original 1993 master tapes and includes bonus track "How Soon is Now?"

Lead track "Fazer" throws listeners straight into a brick wall of heavy guitars. It's an album that stands toe-to-toe with other great records released that year, but the band's NYHC roots give the record an edge you won't hear on an In Utero or Siamese Dream. Slip is a musical bridge between the 1980s New York Hardcore scene from which Quicksand's members cut their teeth on, and the burgeoning sound of the '90s heavy rock. Originally recorded in 1992 and released in early February 1993, Slip is as relevant and important an album today as it was nearly 30 years ago.
