Unripened (Demos And Rare Tracks) documents one of the most essential “lost” recordings in rock history — the earliest studio version of The Velvet Underground & Nico, recorded in April 1966. Presented by Andy Warhol to Columbia Records, this version of the album was ultimately rejected, but it remains a powerful glimpse into the band’s raw beginnings.

Several songs appear in embryonic form, with some notably different from the final versions later released in 1967. This pre-release demo omits "Sunday Morning" and "There She Goes Again," which had not yet been recorded. What remains is a gripping, unfiltered version of the band’s experimental art-rock vision, including fierce takes of "Heroin," "Venus in Furs," and "All Tomorrow’s Parties."

This edition is expected to ship around July 4, 2025, and is a must-have for collectors, historians, and fans of proto-punk and avant-garde music alike.
