Kill Rock Stars

03/11/2025

Fifteen years ago, Thao & The Get Down Stay Down released a heartbreak record that clapped, stomped, and danced through the wreckage — all jagged guitars, jubilant horns, and impossible love on the road.

Produced by Tucker Martine with guest appearances from Andrew Bird, Blitzen Trapper, Horse Feathers, Laura Veirs, and Tune-Yards, it chronicled the collapse of love with brutal honesty and wild rhythm.

Now, Thao revisits the record’s truth:
“The one vital thing about Know Better Learn Faster that I couldn’t say then but I must say now is that it was a heartbreak record about a woman.” — Thao

Remastered by Sarah Register (The Shins, Meshell Ndegeocello) and pressed on limited-edition ruby vinyl, housed in a die-cut jacket with printed inner sleeve and personal letter from Thao.
