Here we go!!! Unless You Try Records is proud to bring you the new release from the mighty Samiam! For those of you who haven't let this band's music enrich your life, they simply write some of the catchiest, melodic, guitar-driven tunes you will ever hear. Influenced by bands such as The Doughboys, Descendents & Husker Du, the band's sound has attracted a truly worldwide army of fans since the band's inception back in Berkeley, California circa 1988. Along with contemporaries Jawbreaker, they pretty much built the Bay Area pop-punk sound that many subsequent musicians owe so much to!

Countless world tours with bands such as Blink-182, Leatherface, Green Day & Sense Field (to name a few) have led to a rollercoaster of highs & lows for the band. They have literally experienced every facet of the music industry since the band's birth, whilst never being content to fit into any of the genres that the music media deemed fashionable at the time! This DOUBLE LP showcases previously unreleased & rare tracks from this 20-year-plus career at the forefront of independent music, and contains a full-colour insert with stories & memories from the individual band members, past and present. We hope it will serve as a great introduction to new listeners as well as a solid reminder to existing fans of just how influential Samiam have been (& continue to be!)
