The game changed with this one, didn't it?
Built On Glass debuted at #1 on the ARIA Charts, won the J Award Australian Album of the Year and was nominated for AIR Awards and the Australian Music Prize. The album had three songs in the Top 10 of 2014’s Triple J Hottest 100, with 'Talk Is Cheap' taking the #1 spot.
With the 10th Anniversary Expanded Edition, Chet Faker is offering fans a chance to revisit the iconic tracks that defined a generation. This release will feature the original 12-song album, plus remixes, rarities and a collection of live performances from an early Built On Glass-era show at the Enmore Theatre in Sydney.
The announcement follows on from news of his return to Australia, this November, to celebrate the milestone with a hometown show at Melbourne’s Royal Botanic Gardens. The performance caps off a string of anniversary shows set to take place in the US, France and Japan over the course of the next months.
Chet Faker on his seminal record, “Built on Glass was an important record for me so I'm excited to finally repress it with this expanded edition and share several unreleased recordings from that era. I can’t think of a better way to celebrate 10 years than to play the record in full in my hometown Melbourne in the Botanic Gardens - something I haven’t done before.”
