Long-awaited This Mortal Coil Deluxe Boxset Released On November 14th.‏ [News]

November 1, 2011

“Immaculate boxset of canon-defining ’80s art-rock curation.” Uncut 5/5

THIS MORTAL COIL’S THREE ALBUMS REMASTERED AND HOUSED IN DELUXE NEW BOXSET WITH BONUS DISC OF MATERIAL ADDED.

On November 14th, 4AD are issuing a boxset of all three This Mortal Coil albums. Each record has been re-mastered from the original analogue studio tapes by John Dent at Loud Mastering, to achieve the best digital sound available today.

Additionally there is a fourth album, Dust & Guitars, that compiles all the singles, including an unreleased one that was to have been part of the Rough Trade Singles Club and their otherwise unavailable recording of Neil Young’s ‘We Never Danced’.
The HDCD albums are packaged in paper sleeves printed to the highest standard by the Ichikudo company in Japan, along with inner sleeves and booklets. They are being housed in a very limited edition box set, with the box itself a deluxe two-piece.

The official three albums – It’ll End In Tears, Filigree & Shadow, Blood – have re-designed sleeves by Ivo Watts-Russell and Vaughan Oliver, 4AD’s long time visual partner, which cater to the reduced size, feature gatefold sleeves, and remain inspired by the originals. The fourth album, which won’t be available to general retail outside the box set, incorporates unseen images of Pallas Citroën, the ‘face’ of This Mortal Coil.
