{"product_id":"2526263","title":"Donnas The - Deleted - Gold Medal [VINYL]","description":"Famously formed in 8th grade for a school talent show, The Donnas began as a self-styled co-ed answer to The Ramones, playing gleefully unapologetic, pop-punk paeans to adolescent alienation and hedonism from a decidedly female perspective.\r\nBut by the time of 2004's Gold Medal, their sixth album and second for the\r\nmajor label Atlantic, the group has clearly—dare we say it?--matured. With\r\nthe notable exception of the single (and career highlight) \"Fall Behind Me,\"\r\nGold Medal marks a move away from the Donnas' harder\/faster ethos towards a more polished (acoustic guitars…whaaat?) pop sound veering towards '70s\r\npsychedelia under the helm of Avril Lavigne producer Butch Walker. And you can tell it from the album's graphics, which flash vintage, Peter Max-esque\r\nsquiggles on the front cover and feature a faux black light poster inside (which we have reproduced for this reissue along with the original printed inner\r\nsleeve). The result was an album that lead vocalist Brett Anderson a.k.a Donna A. deems her favorite, and one that stands as probably the most underrated album in the band's fabulous catalog (most of which we have\r\nrecently released here at Real Gone Music). Our reissue comes in gold smoke vinyl…an overlooked early-oughties gem!","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54454261514625,"sku":"2526263","price":35.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/0848064018759.jpg?v=1751629279","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/2526263","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
