Speedy Ortiz Compilation 'The Death of Speedy Ortiz & Cop Kicker…Forever' To Be Released In November

A Speedy Ortiz compilation album is set to arrive this autumn.
The double LP collection is called 'The Death of Speedy Ortiz & Cop Kicker…Forever' and will arrive digitally on November 12 via Carpark, in celebration of the band's 10th anniversary. Physical formats will follow on January 28.
It'll comprise some of the band's earliest work remixed and remastered, including debut LP 'The Death of Speedy Ortiz', the 'Cop Kicker' EP, and other previously unreleased tracks, along with liner notes penned by Sadie Dupuis, and photographs from the early days. She said:
"I can’t claim Speedy as a solo project anymore — I love working with the friends and bandmates who have played and recorded with me over the years — and I’m glad I now have Sad13 as an outlet for my home-produced concoctions. But I’m so proud of these 22 solo songs which I put a lot of heart and time and sweat into in both 2011 and 2021, and it feels right to honor them by finally re-releasing them with Carpark (who I’ve worked with for pretty darn close to a decade, too) in a more widely listenable way. Happy 10th birthday, Speedy Ortiz, and thanks to everyone who’s been following along. Me at 23 and me at 32 love you very much."
As a preview, Dupuis has unveiled an updated version of Cutco, which comes with horror-inspired video directed and edited by Dupuis.
