Canadian pop-punk outfit Chixdiggit have re-recorded and re-released their self-titled debut album, adding two "new" tracks. Lead singer KJ Jansen had the following to say on the band's site:

Just finished recording, mixing and mastering a new record in a blistering ten days!First I should explain what I mean by "new" record. We've re-recorded our first self titled record and added a couple of tracks that we used to play back in the day but never got around to "laying down" ("laying down" - that's music industry talk for "recording"). Interesting to compare the first record and the new one (we're calling it "II") some things have changed but most really haven't. It [was] released on October 5th at the Rotterdam Rumble festival.

The record, Chixdiggit! was originally released in 1996 on Sub Pop Records. It was their sole release for the label before heading to Honest Don's and then Fat Wreck Chords.
