Pains of Being Pure At Heart - Silver Nugget Color Vinyl Record
Since its debut in 2009, The Pains of Being Pure At Heart's self-titled album has become a beloved modern indie pop classic. It continues to inspire well beyond the indie pop scene, resonating with fans everywhere. As one of the standout bands during Brooklyn’s late 00s guitar music revival, alongside bands like Crystal Stilts, Grizzly Bear, Vivian Girls, and Frankie Rose, The Pains drew inspiration from a diverse mix—from C86 and early Slumberland to Sarah and Creation label pop—adding a unique American twist influenced by bands like Smashing Pumpkins and The Pixies. Their debut is a lively explosion of fuzz, catchy melodies, and youthful energy, quickly recognized as something truly special. Bolstered by three vibrant singles, the album made an immediate impact—landing TV spots on Carson Daly and David Letterman's shows—and launching years of touring plus two more acclaimed albums. Celebrating its 15th anniversary, we're excited to reintroduce this essential album to a new generation of pop fans, now available on stunning silver nugget vinyl—a perfect tribute to a modern indie pop masterpiece.

Unopened returns accepted within 30 days — you cover shipping.
If your record arrives damaged or folded (thanks, postal service), reach out ASAP so we can fix it.
After 30 days, it’s yours to keep forever.
Avoid extreme heat or sunlight. Definitely don’t let it mingle with any Justin Bieber records. Treat it like your grandma — gentle, respectful, and quiet during Murder, She Wrote.
