Bread & Circus
Bread & Circus is an album by Toad the Wet Sprocket originally self released on cassette only in 1988, and re-released in 1989 by Columbia Records on CD, Cassette and Vinyl with altered artwork. The album was recorded while the four members were still in high school for a total cost of $650.
In May 2009, the band announced plans to re-release Bread & Circus, out of print since 2001, in a remastered edition with expanded artwork and bonus tracks culled from the album sessions that didn't make it onto the album. Their sophomore record, "Pale" would also get the same kind of re-issue. In 2010 the band signed a deal with Primary Wave to handle their back catalog and licensing. These reissues have been confirmed by lead singer Glen Phillips via Toad's "Fan Questions" portion of their official website, for release in 2011.
