Kill Rock Stars are to release a double-disc collection of rare Elliott Smith material later this year.
New Moon features a variety of songs taken from 1995 to 1997; during that period Kill Rock Stars released both Smith's self-titled LP and Either/Or, the album that ultimately brought his talents to a wider audience. Both are available on Domino in the UK, who will also handle the domestic release of New Moon.
The tracklisting for New Moon, released on May 7 in the States, looks a lot like this:
Disc 1
'Angel in the Snow'
'Talking to Mary'
'High Times'
'New Monkey'
'Looking Over My Shoulder'
'Going Nowhere'
'Riot Coming'
'All Cleaned Out'
