Block - The Last Single Guy (Deluxe Edition) (2025) [Hi-Res]

There are artists who ride the wave of a genre, and there are artists who help create one. Block belongs to the latter category. As a pioneering force behind the anti-folk movement, his influence can be felt in every corner of modern indie, folk-punk, and lo-fi songwriting. Now, this seminal artist has signed with Meridian (ECR Music Group) for a full re-release of his groundbreaking and critically-acclaimed catalog. These deluxe-edition re-releases feature never-before-heard tracks and alternate versions of some of Block’s most beloved songs. The second of these four re-releases arrives April 25th, with the remastered, bonus-track version of Block’s influential 2006 record, The Last Single Guy [Deluxe Edition].

Three stunning, previously-unreleased tracks, “Hands Up,” “Cream Crackered,” and “Run Run Run,” have been added to the now fully-remastered album, each painstakingly mixed by artist, producer, and ECR Music Group President Blake Morgan (Lenny Kravitz, Janita, Lesley Gore). “This record is a time capsule to a chaotic time in my life,” explains Block. “It’s sort of a musical diary of my rock bottom. Once these three bonus tracks were unearthed in a digital archeological dig—just as we’d left them—and then so amazingly restored and mixed, the album was complete.”
