1000 Hurts

1000 Hurts is the third studio album by American rock band Shellac, released on August 8, 2000.

In its official promotional materials Shellac jokingly described this album as follows: "There are no 12-minute songs on this one.

The cover is a clear homage to old Ampex audio recording tape boxes.

The title refers to one-thousand Hertz (rendered 1000 Hz), a measure used in audio recording describing a sine wave cycling 1,000 times per second.

[11] Jehnny Beth of Savages-fame named the album one of her biggest influences, saying that it had made her "want to be a bassist" & inspired her ideas of recording music.
