So, what’s it gonna be—the barely concealed fixation with ‘90s nostalgia; or the need to remove from our musical palettes, the mostly sour taste left by Liz Phair’s post-Exile in Guyville releases? Like every similar situation charged with this kind of duality it’s a little of both. Which is why on the eve of the album’s 15th anniversary reissue next week, we bring you the trailer for Guyville’s accompanying DVD—“Produced and Directed by Liz Phair”, state the credits—a collection of interviews with such Chicago-area notables as Urge Overkill's Nash Kato, John Cusack, the always sweet and endearing pitbull known as Steve Albini; and Liz’s new boss, Dave Matthews, to whose ATO label she is now signed to.
Exile in Guyville (Redux) will be out June 24th on ATO.
