Originally released in 1995 by RCA Records, You’d Prefer An Astronaut is a record out of time. The third album and major label debut from Chicago, Illinois’ Hum, performed commendably upon it’s initial release, reaching #1 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart off the strength of lead single “Stars”, but as the years passed and the album went out of print, the record took on a mythical status among fans and collectors alike and is now available again via a series of limited edition vinyl releases on SRC vinyl. Often cited as a genre-defining classic, and championed by the likes of Chino Moreno, lead singer of The Deftones, You’d Prefer An Astronaut is a must have for fans of Deftones, Glassjaw, and Quicksan. - Sony Red
