Aug 14, 2009 The Raincoats By Kyle Lemmon

London postpunk queens The Raincoats didn’t just get Kurt Cobain through bouts of depression but served as a beacon of inspiration for many of the bands on Kill Rock Stars’ ‘90s roster. It makes a whole lot of sense then for the indie label to handle the reissue of the band’s 1979 self-titled debut, which includes their perfect single, “Fairytale in the Supermarket.” That vinyl-only reissue is coming out October 13th and to celebrate its release, Gina Birch and Ana Da Silva are playing a few U.S. shows the same month, including their first West Coast dates ever. The Raincoats tracklisting and tour dates are below:
