Sound As Ever

Sound as Ever is the debut album by Australian band You Am I, released in October 1993 via rooArt Records. It was recorded at Pachyderm Studio in rural Cannon Falls, Minnesota, over eight days from July to August 1993 and was produced by Lee Ranaldo, with Wayne Connolly as mixer and audio engineer. It provided three singles, "Adam's Ribs", "Berlin Chair" and "Jaimme's Got a Gal". Sound as Ever was a departure for Tim Rogers on lead vocals, lead guitar and organ; Andy Kent on bass guitar and backing vocals; and Mark Tunaley on drums, percussion and vocals. They are a back to basics, punk-influenced Australian rock band. Rogers described recording the album, "Lee was the sweetest man in the world and continues to be so. Nirvana had just packed up after In Utero and we were the next ones in, this bunch of little yokels from Australia." Before the album appeared Tunaley was "ousted from the band"; he was eventually replaced by Rusty Hopkinson on drums.
