First ever U.S. pressing!
2024 remastered edition of the band's 1981 album debut!
"The dB's carved out a nice little niche in the genre of power pop while straddling the line between punk and new wave." — Pop Matters
"(T)he dB's combined a reverence for British pop and arty post-punk leanings that alternate between minimalism and a love of quirky embellishment, odd sounds, and unexpected twists; Stands for deciBels is clearly a collegiate pop experiment, but rarely is experimentation so enjoyable and irresistibly catchy." — AllMusic
Pitchfork cited Stands for deciBels among its list of Top 100 Albums of the 1980s, calling it "The missing link between the proto-power pop of Big Star and the college rock of R.E.M. ... an unheralded gem." To support this remastered and first-ever U.S. vinyl release, the band will be on tour in the Fall of 2024 in the U.S.
