Lush ‘Spooky, Split & Lovelife’

Friday 11 August 2023, 5PM

After long years of waiting, the three Lush studio albums will be available on vinyl again from August 11, 2023.

Articulated around the songwriting talents of Emma Anderson and Miki Berenyi, Lush defined the sound of an era, at the crossroads of shoegaze, dream pop and Britpop, before disbanding in 1998. A group that became cult over time, uniting new generations. And aside from a lavish retrospective box set from Record Store Day in 2016, all three studio albums – Spooky (1992), Split (1994) and Lovelife (1996) – have been unavailable on vinyl since the 90s.

With demand high, the band worked with renowned engineer/producer Kevin Vanbergen to help remaster their back catalog, starting with their studio albums. Using the original production tapes, Kevin painstakingly reworked them to create new 24-bit masters that perfectly capture the essence of the originals. They have never sounded so good.

Famous for collaborating with 4AD's in-house designers, v23, on every release, album art has always been central to Lush's appeal. For these reissues, the first two albums will be presented in their original designs, while Lovelife will use their box art from 2016 to retain the collectible tracing paper sleeve from 1996, exclusive to this first pressing.
