Used copies were hitting $125 and more online, so we figured it was about time to reissue the ultimate Galaxie 500 book, Temperature's Rising: An Oral and Visual History. This new edition will be available everywhere for $35 via D.A.P./Artbook starting Oct 4, and if you order now directly from 20/20/20 it's on sale for $30.

The book is a very funny, very truthful, and very nostalgic history of Galaxie 500, told directly by the three of us alongside a lot of the people we worked with at the time. Mike McGonigal, a journalist who knew many of the participants, interviewed everyone for the oral history. And Naomi contributed a visual archive of the band, together with her own commentary on those images.

It's printed in full color, with 214 illustrations. And because the story is told by many voices, it's more than even we knew about that band!
