Vinyl only, buy on CD here.
Digital download: Bandcamp (the rest coming soon)
We’ve wanted to have this on vinyl for a very long time, but it is only now we’ve been able to afford it. There was no way around remastering the album, as it had never been mastered for vinyl before, so there are some subtle changes from the versions of the songs you’ll hear on the CD, but just so no-one feels ripped off by the re-release, if you email me a picture of you holding your CD then I’ll send you a free download of the mp3s of the new versions.
When we were writing all the press blurb, Neil decided to describe the album as ‘epic lo-fi’ and even though that is an almost totally meaningless term, it still seems to describe All Creatures pretty well. With two new band members joining, there was a danger that the cello or the electric guitar would end up swamping this record, but it’s all been handled very carefully.
I think the first time I heard this album through I pretty much summed up what I felt about it in a single sentence: there’s not so much as a weak twenty seconds on here, anywhere.
