“We laughed that we were trying so hard to be authentic,” continues Lachowski, “We were like the Pylon Historical Reenactment Society instead of just being people in our late 40s in a band again"

I'm hoping this means the albums will be reissued on New West soon and this isn't just a one-off partnership.

Ah, I answered my own question. Apparently a box is due in 2020.

Gyrate is reasonably priced on the used market (I've bid on and lost copies that go for under $25 on ebay), but Chomp is the one that's absolutely ridiculous.
I really hope this deal with New West results in reissues of the individual albums and not just some astronomically priced box set/collection.

If I remember right, Pylon was really late getting those first two records onto CD. I don't think either of them were ever in print on disc in the 90s...I know I found the first one on vinyl and did not get them on CD until the later post 2000 reissues.

the one Chomp LP that i saw for like ten bucks at wuxtry records in athens circa 2005 perpetually haunts me

Just a head's up if anyone missed out on the recent-ish reissues, New West is having a huge 50% off sale (today only, I think) including the box set
