Founded in 1993, Hopeless Records has announced a 30th anniversary compilation which sees the label's current roster covering classics from the label's deep catalog.
The label shares a portion of the tracklisting now, with The Wonder Years covering Thrice, Bayside covering The Weakerthans, Sincere Engineer covering 88 Fingers Louie, and more.
The Wonder Years, in a press release, share some insight:
I think we are the longest tenured Hopeless Records artist of all time. It was the label that took a shot on us when everyone else passed. The label that changed our lives. We are deeply ingrained in the company’s history, and so when I say Happy 30th Birthday, it’s not just because I’m proud of them, it’s because I’m proud of us. All of us. We built some amazing, lasting things together, as a team. Because of that, I don’t think you could have a 30th Anniversary comp without The Wonder Years and we’re very excited we got to do the legendary Thrice track, “Deadbolt.” Recording it pushed us to places we don’t always go as a band, and it was both a blast and an honour.
