ET CETERA

The catalogue number scratched into the B-side is incorrect. It states "TEENBEAT 323-B".

A compact disc edition of the album was released by Elektra Records on July 29, 1997.

REVIEW

Luna's previous LP Penthouse, was a quiet masterpiece - cold afternoon dream-pop for gas-fired bedrooms. Pup Tent is even better. For the first time since Galaxie 500, Dean Wareham has expanded on his infatuation with the third Velvet's album. So alongside the glacial twangs and lonesome voice, we can marvel at how much better they sound with a few stellar touches. Guitars sound like shooting stars, xylophones and horns embellish with grace, Wareham is mangled through fractured megaphones. And all the time we keep finding the magic contained within. Come mid-Autumn and Pup Tent is the only album you're gonna need.

- Neil Davenport, City Life
