Today, Cloud Nothings releases the ten year anniversary reissue of their debut album Turning On via Carpark Records. Recorded by Dylan Baldi on a computer in his parents’ basement, Turning On is an essential album to fully understand the world of Cloud Nothings. Reissued on vinyl with its original tracklist, the digital 10th anniversary deluxe edition includes all 13 tracks found in Carpark’s first edition of the album plus four new bonus live tracks. In conjunction with the release, the band is sharing a music video by bassist TJ Duke for the live rendition of “Can’t Stay Awake” that is featured on the deluxe edition.
 
The Turning On reissue also arrives ahead of their forthcoming album The Shadow I Remember out February 26th. The new album finds the band reunited with producer Steve Albini, who helmed the production for their breakout 2012 album Attack On Memory, and finds Baldi exploring his place in the world as both a human and band a decade into its career.
