Description

Used copy Built to Spill’s Perfect from Now On Double LP from Warner Brother Records.  This is the 2007 reissue of the album and is out of print.  It contains 1 previously unreleased bonus track, “Easy Way.”  The layout of the artwork on this re-issue has been re-arranged and therefore differs slightly from that of the original pressing.  There is normal wear around the edges and corners.

Note:  Payment must be received via paypal within two days of winning the auction.  I will ship within two days of payment using Media Mail through the USPS.  I live in a smoking household, so opened copies of records/CD’s I’m selling may or may not have brownish discoloration on the covers, most likely on the opened edge not covered by shrink wrap or plastic sleeve.  This is especially true of albums with light colored covers.  Please email me with any questions or if you would like more pictures of the item.  Please check out my other auctions at:  http://www.ebay.com/sch/tonirickman/m.html?_nkw&_armrs=1&_from&_ipg=25&_trksid=p3686

Review from allmusic.com:

Not many groups would take a major-label contract as a cue to put out an album where the shortest song is still a radio-unfriendly five minutes in length. For that listeners can thank their stars that Built to Spill isn't like many groups and Doug Martsch not like many artists. Perfect from Now On manages the amazing trick of being the band's best album to this point, Martsch and company using the opportunities for larger budgets and distribution to create an album at once inspiring and quietly emotional, not the easiest combination to pull off. With drummer Scott Plouf and bassist Brett Nelson as the other core performers, plus second guitarist Brett Netson and cellist John McMahon as key guests, the result is astounding all around. The length of the songs allows the band to create uniquely post-everything mantras, blending psych trances and drones, post-punk airiness and flow, and Martsch's affecting, tender singing and lyrics into a whole. Martsch's high tones and the guitar passion here helped fuel further comparisons to Neil Young -- to pick out one moment, consider the closing minutes of "I Would Hurt a Fly," feedback peeling out over the rhythm and strings -- but the Boise musician is his own man through and through. Selecting standout moments from such a solid disc almost defeats the purpose, but many examples still deserve further notice. "Stop the Show" builds to a dramatic, but not in the least bit hammy, shift from a roaring wash to a quick, clipped pace; Martsch's vocals and further sudden tempo switches are the icing on the cake. "Velvet Waltz" indeed plays at that musical pace, McMahon's playing and Martsch's heartbreaking, lovely lyrics and singing the core of a incredible song. "Untrustable/Part 2 (About Someone Else)" concludes a simply fantastic record.
