To celebrate 21 years since the formation of Eskimo Joe, the past 12 months has seen the platinum-selling band from Western Australia reissuing their back catalogue in new formats. The latest Eskimo Joe album to be given the deluxe treatment is 2006’s Black Fingernails Red Wine, which went to number one on the ARIA Album Chart. It spent 62 weeks in the ARIA top 50 albums chart, won four ARIA awards and has sold four times platinum (more than 300,000 copies in Australia alone). “If you’re lucky, you get one moment in your career where all the stars seem to align, and everyone is in the right place at the right time,” frontman Kav Temperley says. “For us, it was the album Black Fingernails Red Wine. This album was a benchmark.” • As well as the popular singles Sarah, New York and the title track, the 2CD edition of Black Fingernails Red Wine features more than 25 bonus songs. Chosen by the band, the package includes remixes, B-sides and live material. It includes a 2019 remix of Black Fingernails Red Wine by Melbourne production duo Le Sauvage, as well as unheard demo recordings from the album’s earliest 2005 sessions. A limited red vinyl edition of the original album will be also released.
