CHAMBERLAIN – Fate’s Got A Driver (25th Anniversary Edition) LP 

LP on yellow/orange/red marbled vinyl, limited to 500 copies

There are certain records that change your life as a music fan forever. For Arctic Rodeo, one of these records is and always will Fate’s Got A Driver. When Split Lip released it in 1995, it was clear to the guys running Arctic Rodeo that this album was going to turn the punk-/hardcore scene upside down right away. The re-release of the album in 1996 underlined the new direction of the band, from now on called Chamberlain.

"Fate’s Got A Driver was inarguably the record that set Chamberlain on its ever-winding path, and where we found our collective voice while still incredibly young," guitarist Adam Rubenstein says. "I still remember so much youthful naivety — driving through the night to arrive and seeking inspiration from the gravesite of James Dean, David straining his voice so hard that his arms went numb, all of us cackling kids being kicked out of the control room more than once. We were balancing school, different lives, and always on the cusp of calling it quits. It’s miraculous we mustered these 8 songs that have somehow stood the test of time. "

25 years later, Arctic Rodeo is honored to announce the release of limited anniversary edition of this milestone album on vinyl. It will be out as a limited edition LP on colored wax, including 4 bonus tracks and coming with a 16 page booklet, all housed in an embossed gatefold jacket with a die-cut front.

"We’re thrilled to see it finally back in print," Rubenstein continues. "Listening back still summons these fond recollections, and we’re honored that after 25 years it also invokes joyful memories for so many others."
