Pre-Order Kilkenny Cats "Hammer + Echo" LP + CD Bundle Expanded reissue of the 1988 EP Hammer EP now includes a newly compiled “Echo” side of lost recordings with liner notes by Tom Cheek, and rare archival material. In 1988, Athens, Georgia’s Kilkenny Cats released Hammer, a fierce and atmospheric EP that captured the moody heart of the late-’80s Southern underground.

Remastered and featuring unreleased recordings, unseen photos, and liner notes that reframe the story of a band that never quite fit the mold. Hammer + Echo includes the original six-track Hammer EP one side, remastered from the original tapes, and a newly assembled "Echo Side" of unreleased recordings. This collection- raw, powerful, and deeply evocative- charts the band’s evolution through outtakes, demos, and deep cuts spanning from 1983 to the early ’90s. A bonus track, “Heaven,” appears exclusively on the CD and digital edi
