Deluxe Reissue of 1986 album ‘New Wind’ reimagined by Ian MacKaye, retitled as ‘Change In My Head’ out May 23 alongside the original version via Trust Records, in partnership with BYO Records.

As part of the reissue of 7Seconds’ deluxe reissue of their 1986 album ‘New Wind’, original producer Ian Mackaye, alongside Inner Ear Studios’ Don Zientara, remixed and remastered its 13 original songs into an entirely new album, retitled to ‘Change In My Head’. MacKaye’s renewed version also includes two unheard / unreleased singles from the original 1985 D.C. session – titletrack ‘Change In My Head’ and ‘Compro’. It is a fresh snapshot of band in transition, but still very much of a hardcore punk band. They give another glimpse into this LP with the reimagined version of ‘Tied Up In Rhythm’. ‘New Wind’ and ‘Change In My Head’ will be sold as one release, available across all digital retailers and in stores on May 23 via Trust Records, in partnership with BYO Records. ‘New Wind’’s original tapes were restored by Dan Johnson of Audio Archiving Services and was remastered by Grammy Award winning engineer Michael Graves. The vinyl version comes with a 24-page oral history with unseen photographs, flyers and memorabilia all laid out by Bryan Ray Turcotte. ‘Change In My Head’ was mixed by Ian MacKaye and Don Zientara at Inner Ear Studios, in January of 2023. The album was mastered by Pete Lyman of Infrasonic Studios.
