Released in line with its 40th anniversary; Hallowed Ground is the 1984 follow up to the Violent Femmes legendary self-titled debut album. Similar to the first album, all of the songs were written by lead singer Gordon Gano while still in high school. The bands sophomore title, however, pushed the band in new directions and made sure they did not rest on their laurels featuring fan favorites (and live staples) Country Death Song, Jesus Walking on the Water, I Hear The Rain, Black Girls and Never Tell. Mastered from the original stereo tapes (AAA).
