About the Louisville Babylon Series:
The original Louisville Babylon compilation was released by Analog Distillery in 1994 and included Misfits covers from twenty Louisville bands including Rodan, Crain, Falling Forward, Sunspring, and Endpoint. In 2007 Louisville Is For Lovers acquired permission from Analog Distillery to release the 1994 compilation (as a 13th anniversary reissue) as well as to release a contemporary follow up, Louisville Babylon II, with the next generation of Louisville groups including My Morning Jacket, Dave Pajo, Wax Fang, The Slow Break, and Ultra Pulverize.
Currently the 1994 compilation is available to stream on the Louisville Mix site and on Oct. 28th the 2007 compilation will also be available on Louisville Mix.
