LP – Black Vinyl.Lovelife uses the art from their 2016 boxset so to keep 1996s collectible tracing paper sleeve exclusive to that initial pressing. The wait is over. All three studio albums byLushwill finally be back in print on vinyl starting August 11, 2023. Built around the songwriting talents ofEmma AndersonandMiki Berenyi, Lush successfully defined a myriad of 90s scenes such as shoegaze, dream pop and Britpop before they disbanded in 1998. A much-loved band who briefly reformed in 2016, recent years has seen a new, young audience fall in love with their music after discovering it via TikTok, Spotify et al. And outside of a lavish Record Store Day career retrospective boxset in 2016, all three studio albums Spooky(1992),Split(1994) andLovelife(1996) have been unavailable on vinyl since the 90s. With demand high, the band have been working with renowned engineer / producerKevin Vanbergento help them remaster their catalogue, starting with their studio albums. Using the original production tapes for source material, Kevin has painstakingly worked on them to create brand new, stunning 24-bit masters that perfectly capture the thrill of the originals. Theyve never sounded so good. Famously working with4ADs inhouse designersv23on every release, album art has always been central to Lushs appeal too. For these represses, the first two albums will come housed in their original designs while Lovelife uses the art from their 2016 boxset so to keep 1996s collectible tracing paper sleeve exclusive to that initial pressing. For these new presses, all three titles are coming out on both classic black vinyl and ultra-clear vinyl – the latter a one-time press.
