Roxette Flac

In the five years between Roxette's last album, Crash, Boom, Bang, and this, their "comeback" album, pop music had changed considerably. Crash, Boom, Bang failed, in part, because it was completely out of step with the times; in 1994 grunge, alternative, and rap ruled the charts, but Roxette always produced a relatively crisp and clean brand of pop/rock. In the five years since then, however, Brit-pop brought alternative rock back towards pop, electronica made dance music "cool" again, and bubblegum pop bands like the Spice Girls made unabashed pop fun again. Also, Per Gessle was fresh off from his very rock-oriented 1997 solo album.

One of Sweden’s most iconic musical exports, Rosette released their very first Greatest Hits collection Don't Bore Us, Get to the Chorus! 30 years ago. The album went on to become a massive global success, selling more than seven million copies worldwide. Originally pressed in a small vinyl edition, it quickly became a rare and highly sought-after collector’s item. Now, for the first time in decades, fans can rediscover this landmark release on vinyl and CD.

Bag of Trix – Music From The Roxette Vaults – is a four-record collection of 46 previously unreleased or long since deleted Roxette recordings, including demos, alternative mixes, Spanish versions, bonus tracks, and other fun stuff from the Swedish band's long, illustrious, and extraordinarily successful career (1986 - 2016).
