Fire Records re-issues the rare and regarded Black Out recording from 1993. Forged from the embers of the recording session which was Purge & Slouch, and wholly acoustic, this collection of takes was originally released only in Germany. Black Out sits proudly amidst the Giant Sand re-issue project. "When we gathered for the grand experiment of 'purge & slouch" Howe Gelb recalls, "the idea of which was to record without having written anything prior for it." Some actual songs did pop out, perhaps for the sake of warm-up or while mic's were being wired.. maybe just for the sake of vigorous deployment.. re-living some old songs there and then, we bundled em up after the fact for what would become "stromausfall" instead. " "This was a limited batch release on a small German label who took my original title "black out" and translated it.. The idea being that this is the sound that would happen during one.. songs without electricity attached".

Reissue of [r2068829] + 1 bonus song [r2068829] was a Limited Edition of 2000 copies. Recorded in Tucson - summer 1993 - one night during the "Purge + Slouch" sessions. Digipak Track 10 is a bonus track
