2008 compilation album by People Under the Stairs
The Om Years is the second compilation album by People Under the Stairs . It is a combination of popular tracks from the group's first four albums (The Next Step , Question in the Form of an Answer , O.S.T. and ...Or Stay Tuned ), and also includes extra b-sides and rarities.
The album was released in two formats:
A double-CD album, with the album tracks on the first CD, titled Disc 1: The Om Years , and a second bonus CD, titled Disc 2: B-Sides and Rarities .
A double-LP album, with a selection of the first CD's tracks, and two songs ("The Bomb Combo" and "Out Da Club") from the b-sides & rarities CD.
Om Records released this compilation album in an attempt to capitalize on the buzz about the group's upcoming album, Fun DMC , and the group's past success with the label.[ 2] The group would return to the Om label on 2009's Carried Away .
All songs written by Christopher "Thes One" Portugal and Michael "Double K" Turner , except where noted.
