Over the course of their more than twenty years as a band, Blonde Redhead has evolved from raucous noise rockers to purveyors of shoegaze, dream pop, and alternative rock. Now the fine folks over at Numero Group have compiled the NYC trio's earliest works into a box set called Masculin Féminin, available soon as both a four-LP vinyl and two-CD release.

This new release features the band's first two albums, Blonde Redhead and La Mia Vita Violenta, originally released on CD via Sonic Youth drummer Steve Shelley's Smells Like label. But it also includes some of Blonde Redhead's early radio performances, demos, and singles, plus a book of essays and previously unpublished photos.

The box set hits our stores September 30th, but you can pre-order them now online at Amoeba.com (and they'll ship FREE to U.S. addresses).
