History For Sale is the third album by Blue October. It was recorded at Sound Arts Studios in Houston, Texas and released in the United States in 2003 by Brando Records. It is the only Blue October album to feature former member Dwayne Casey on bass guitar, and the band's first album featuring lead guitarist C.B. Hudson. The track "Come in Closer" features guest vocals by Zayra Alvarez, who later, on the CBS reality show Rockstar: Supernova, sang the song "Razorblade" on her final episode before being voted off.
Ironically, the album — re-released on Universal Records — is largely a response to the control the label placed on the group during the Consent to Treatment production process.[1] The re-released version of the album includes a solo acoustic version of "Calling You" as a hidden track, while the original version of the album includes videos of the band during the recording process.
