SHIPPING POLICY

We offer FREE shipping on orders of $100 or more. All media orders (vinyl/CD/cassette) will ship via USPS media mail. Please be aware that we cannot provide free multiple shipments for a single order, so if your order includes pre-order items, the entire order will be held until all items are in stock and ready to be shipped.

Your tracking information usually updates within 24-72 hours. Once your order departs from our facility, we no longer have control over it. For assistance with missing packages, kindly reach out to your local post office branch. Please note that we are not responsible for stolen packages and are not able to refund you for your purchase if your package was stolen after delivery. Shipping times may vary.


FREE IN-STORE PICKUP

If you are local, we offer FREE in-store pickup on online orders.  Please note, however, that using Apple Pay at checkout will auto-fill a shipping charge and will not allow you the option to choose free in-store pickup. In other words, if you wish to choose free in-store pickup at checkout, you must checkout without using an accelerated payment method like Apple Pay.

Back in 2002, Reigning Sound unleashed Time Bomb High School, an earth-scorching platter of rock and roll that conquered the hearts and ears of everyone from Little Steven Van Zandt to The Hives' Howlin' Pelle Almqvist. Time Bomb High School has since become a cratedigger's grail, out of print on vinyl since it's initial release. Now those seekers have reason to rejoice: Time Bomb High School is returning to vinyl; remastered and featuring new cover art by Greg Cartwright.

Hailed as "a truly unimpeachable rock'n'roll-soul classic" by The Guardian, Time Bomb High School was a breakthrough for the Memphis-based quartet of Cartwright (vocals, guitar), Jeremy Scott (bass, backing vocals), Greg Roberson (drums), and Alex Greene (organ, guitar, backing vocals). The songs - Cartwright's originals and covers like "Stormy Weather" and "I'd Much Rather Be With the Boys" alike - are as alive as ever, but the heart of this edition of Time Bomb High School lies in it's sequencing, which was kept true to the 2002 first pressing. The Side 1 features mid-tempo ballads, and love songs. Side 2 is all rockers. The album opens with four of Reigning Sound's most vulnerable yearners before breaking out into a rendition of Memphis hometown heroes The Guilloteens "I Don't Believe." From this, an almost entirely new album emerges. The band's swagger and bravado remains intact, but the album feels more earnest and open-hearted, like they've put down their guard to really let the listener in, it's ravers feeling like shelter from the storm. There's no wrong way to listen to Time Bomb High School, but this is it's definitive form: a classic that's ready for rediscovery, as vital to the rock canon as the dusty 45s that inspired Reigning Sound.
