On the eve of their highly-anticipated North American tour, The Get Up Kids digitally release Something to Write Home About (25th Anniversary Deluxe Edition). Listen  to the genre-defining record below, newly remastered by Joe LaPorta at Sterling Sound alongside a dozen rare and previously unreleased demos, including the four-track acoustic recordings by singer/songwriter Matt Pryor. 

Additionally, The Get Up Kids re-share the iconic music video for their breakthrough single, “Action & Action,” remastered to 4K resolution. Directed by Adam Rothlein alongside director of photography Brian Dee, the original video (filmed on a shoestring budget) saw them reach broader audiences via appearances on MTV2’s 120 Minutes. Jim Suptic reflects:

"'Action & Action' was the first music video any of us had ever made. Some of us were better actors than others, but I think we all had a pretty good time making it. I don’t remember exactly who came up with the concept for the video, but I do remember we wanted cute girls in it. That seems pretty funny now, but it seemed like a good tactic at the time.” - Jim Suptic (The Get Up Kids)
