Long hailed as one of the ignition sparks of the early-2000s garage-rock revival, People Get Ready didn't just introduce The Mooney Suzuki, it helped define the sound and swagger of a scene that would soon reshape rock music. It's explosive energy, razor-wire riffs, and unfiltered urgency were a blueprint for a generation of bands emerging from New York's downtown clubs. Members of The Strokes, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, and other contemporaries have spoken about the electric atmosphere of the band, and People Get Ready stands as one of the records that proved a new wave of rock was not only possible, but inevitable. The Mooney Suzuki's raw, soul-infused attack set a tone that their peers absorbed, expanded, and carried into the global spotlight.

This is a 2026 Record Store Day Release.
