Jay Reatard invites you to purchase things.

Would you like to purchase anything and everything Jay Reatard has put out in his illustrious career? If the answer is yes, you are in luck for today Jay has decided to resurrect his first (and tiny) label: Shattered Records.

“Right now, the Shattered website has 20 albums for sale, both from Reatard and from his various bands and side projects: the Reatards, Lost Sounds, Bad Times, Final Solutions, etc. The first new release on the relaunched Shattered is Greatest Messes, a digital compilation of stuff Reatard released before he started calling himself Jay Reatard. It should be a lot of help for anyone trying to decide between, say, the Nervous Patterns album or the Terror Visions album.

And anyone willing to drop $75 a year on an annual subscription to the Shattered Records Club will get a whole ton of stuff: an expanded edition of Greatest Messes, Reatard’s forthcoming Matador album (due in August) on mp3 and CD or LP, all the Shattered Single Series singles plus two exclusive bonus singles, a T-shirt, a download of the Reatards‘ debut album Teenage Hate, and various other goodies throughout the year.” – From Pitchfork
