Remy Zero is the debut studio album by Remy Zero. It was released on January 30, 1996.[1][2] The band recorded it after moving to Los Angeles, where many of them suffered from homelessness and drug abuse. The album received very little attention despite Radiohead having added Remy Zero to their tour after hearing Remy Zero's original demos that appeared on KCRW, a radio station in Santa Monica.

| AllMusic |   [2] |
The Calgary Herald concluded that Remy Zero "fails to come fully together, drifting too often too aimlessly, not mapping clearly enough the Neil Young-Beatles-Wilco-bohemian backroads it travels."[3]
