The March entry in the 25th anniversary reissue series of MERGE Records is "Bloomed", the 1994 debut album from RICHARD BUCKNER.

The album will be remastered and released on CD and 180-gram vinyl. Both formats will include a CD containing 11 bonus tracks of radio sessions, live performances, and original recordings of songs that appeared on future releases.

Spin magazine described Buckner as "equal parts Bay Area bohemian and dust bowl traditionalist" and named "Bloomed" one of its best albums of 1994, while Pitchfork wrote, "It's a traditional outsider-country record in the lineage of Townes Van Zandt.

Buckner's voice is all honey and oak, his guitar style elaborately twanging, his constant subject matter heartache."
