THIS MORTAL COIL – FILGREE & SHADOW

$0.00

Using remasters made from the original analogue studio tapes by the late, great John Dent at Loud Mastering, these reissues will come housed in beautiful, hand finished and high-gloss gatefold sleeves with reimagined artwork by Ivo Watts-Russell and Vaughan Oliver, 4AD’s long-time visual partner. Released two years after their debut album, This Mortal Coil’s Filigree & Shadow (1986) was no less ornate than its predecessor. A double album with no defined breaks between tracks so each of its four sides became a self-contained unit. The core expanded to add Simon Raymonde (Cocteau Twins) and arranger Martin McCarrick, backing (with the help of members of Dif Juz and The Wolfgang Press) a variety of new singers Ivo handpicked including Alison Limerick, Dominic Appleton (Breathless), sisters Deirdre and Louise Rutkowski, Caroline Seaman (Heavenly Bodies) and Richenel.
