Released originally by Wall of Sound sublabel We Love You in 2002, ‘Sunshine Hit Me’ was recorded and produced by founding members Paul Butler and Aaron Fletcher in a home garden studio - aka The Shed - on the Isle of Wight and went on to receive a nomination for the 2003 Mercury Music Prize. Singles from the album include ‘No Trophy’, ‘Punchbag’, and a cover of Os Mutantes’ ‘A Minha Menina’. The newly curated expanded CD features six bonus tracks, including a previously unreleased song, ‘Seeds’. Remastered at Electric Mastering in 2023, this new vinyl reissue marks the album’s first ever repress and is available on ‘Mask Blue’ coloured vinyl, matching the album’s iconic cover. The vinyl also features a digital download code for two bonus dub tracks, ‘Angry Dub’ and ‘Sky Holds The Dub’.
