released the band’s second album

In November 1995, Sub Pop released the band’s second album, bearing only the label Sunny Day Real Estate . The album was released without cover art or liner notes, and was distributed by Sub Pop as LP2 . It has also occasionally been referred to as “The Pink Album”, a reference to its solid pink cover. When Sub Pop contacted the band for artwork for the release, the band had nothing to offer, so Goldsmith suggested that they “make it pink”. The album included the songs recorded during the brief sessions, as well as tracks such as “Rodeo Jones” that were recorded during the sessions for Diary .
