First Aid Kit (album)

First Aid Kit is the second full-length studio album by Disco Ensemble, originally released in 2005 in Finland by Fullsteam Records. In 2006 it was reissued as a worldwide release by Universal Music Group. Four songs were rerecorded for this reissue and it also included one additional track, "Eyes of a Ghost" from the Black Euro CD single. A Japanese version was also released which included five bonus tracks. A further version was released with a fold out cardboard case and a bonus DVD including the music videos 'Black Euro' 1 & 2, 'We Might Fall Apart' and the original video for 'Drop Dead, Casanova'. Also, it had 4 live videos from their Tavastia gig on 24 March 2006.

First Aid Kit features a more refined sound than its predecessor, Viper Ethics, more care having been taken during the recording phase of the album's development. The album's sound contains less grunge, but remains edgy, setting the band's signature sound that has stayed with them in later albums such as their 2008 effort Magic Recoveries.
