Vinyl LP pressing. 1993's Stain is the third Epic release by storming New York-based band Living Colour and last for a decade. Like it's predecessors (platinum 1988 debut Vivid and gold 1990 sophomore effort Time's Up), Stain exhibits Living Colour's high-temperature mix of hard rock energy and funk-inflected rhythm, social conscience and unfettered emotion. Guided by producer Ron Saint Germain (Bad Brains, Soundgarden, Sonic Youth), Stain features 13Living Colour originals: gritty rockers that prove "the personal is political" with a brand of furious grace that only this band can muster.
