Official Sub Pop reissue of Cigarettes After Sex’s debut EP I, originally self-released in 2012 and issued on cassette by Sub Pop in 2018. Features four ambient dream-pop tracks recorded in a stairwell at the University of Texas. Professionally duplicated, limited edition cassette sealed in shrink wrap.

The dreamlike haze of EP I by Cigarettes After Sex gets an official analog release from Sub Pop. This cassette captures the band's intimate, slowcore-influenced early sound, with whispered vocals and reverb-drenched guitars floating in a cloud of ambient melancholy. From the iconic “Nothing’s Gonna Hurt You Baby” to the shimmering “Starry Eyes,” this four-track EP became a cult classic long before the band’s breakout full-length. Pressed on high-quality tape and sealed, this official Sub Pop edition is a must for collectors, lo-fi romantics, and fans of ethereal bedroom pop.
