Sold (Died Pretty album)
Sold is the sixth album by Australian rock band Died Pretty. It was released in 1996 and peaked at No. 29 in the ARIA album charts.[3] The album was the last to include drummer, Nick Kennedy, who left during recording; he was replaced in the sessions by Shane Melder, on loan from Sidewinder.[4] It was co-produced by former Radio Birdman vocalist Rob Younger, who had produced the band's 1986 debut Free Dirt, and Wayne Connolly, who went on to co-produce their next two albums. Singer and song co-writer Ron Peno said the album's lyrics, inspired by the departure of his long-time girlfriend, were very personal. He told the Herald Sun: "Every song can actually move me to tears. It was something I had to get out of my system. It was something that was happening in my life and it stopped happening and I'm trying to get over it."[5] The Age called the album a classic,[6] the Sydney Morning Herald described it as "magnificent"[1] and the Herald Sun's review said: "While it retains some of the rough edges associated with previous records, Sold is mostly pristine and polished, and pitched squarely at commercial radio."[7] It was Died Pretty's second and final album for Sony Records. The company dropped the band from its roster in April 1996.[4] Track listing(All songs by Brett Myers and Ron Peno except where noted)
