Sparkle and Fade is the second album by Everclear, released on May 23, 1995. It was their first album to be released exclusively on Capitol Records; their previous effort, World of Noise, was re-released on Capitol after its introduction through the Portland, Oregon based label, Tim/Kerr Records. The album produced the singles `Heroin Girl,` `Santa Monica,` `Heartspark Dollarsign` and `You Make Me Feel Like a Whore`. Ostensibly, the album`s music follows themes like addiction and romance through a loosely defined narrative similar to Art Alexakis` own troubled life when he was in his twenties.[5]

The album`s cover features childhood pictures of the three members of the band. It is Everclear`s third-best-selling album to date.[6] It climbed to the top of the Heatseekers Chart in January 1996[7] and was certified Platinum by the RIAA in May 1996.[8]

In 2016 independent vinyl reissue label Intervention Records reissued Sparkle & Fade on 180-gram vinyl.[9]
