isuckatthesethings Posted January 27, 2013 Posted January 27, 2013 http://www.epitaph.com/artists/album/93/Green_Day_1039_Smoothed_Out_Slappy_Hours http://www.epitaph.com/artists/album/92/Kerplunk Why are Kerplunk and Smoothed Out Slappy Hours on the site of Epitaph Records? Because every other website says that those albums were both from Lookout! .
Platypus2000 Posted January 27, 2013 Posted January 27, 2013 I was wondering this too! I just thought that maybe cause' I got the mastered version of Slappy that they changed the label name. I have no idea about Kerplunk! though :/
Harry Potter. Posted January 27, 2013 Posted January 27, 2013 Weren't the re-issues from Epitaph or something? I have no idea actually.
Misterglasshalfempty Posted January 27, 2013 Posted January 27, 2013 Huh, interesting. I actually thought that these records were on Reprise after the band pulled out from Lookout. However, this forum is filled with people who claim to have superior knowledge on matters such as these, so I'm just gonna leave it to one of those guys to enlighten us
Liam Posted January 27, 2013 Posted January 27, 2013 The reason for this is because its the label they used to release these albums in Europe. If you look on the side at release date it says "EU Rel. Date: 08/24/1997" way after the albums were originally released. Even wikipedia says these albums were released on the label. For questions like these though they can go in the Q&A thread pinned at the top
