Description
* Petrol Blue 2LP with gatefold sleeve * Remastered and Expanded * Designed by Timothy O'Donnell & Roy Burns III, photography by Dominic Davies In celebration of Record Store Day 2025, 4AD presents a trifecta of special 30th Anniversary Editions of classic releases from stand-out artists across our catalogue, available in limited quantities exclusively on vinyl at selected independent record shops on 12 April. Pale Saints complete their series of 30th anniversary reissues with the release of an expanded edition of their third and final album, Slow Buildings. By 1994, they were the quartet of Meriel Barham (vocals / guitar), Chris Cooper (drums), Graeme Naysmith (guitar) and Colleen Browne (bass guitar/vocals), who having just left The Heart Throbs replaced founding member Ian Masters who had departed the band to form Spoonfed Hybrid with AC Temple's Chris Trout. Primed by the brilliant single 'Fine Friend' (a song adapted from 1981's 'Poison in the Airwaves' by Scottish band Persian Rugs), third album Slow Buildings shows the band still venturing forward - this time, keeping the experimentation and guitar fuzz of their early records whilst opening-up their songs so Meriel's vocals could hit new, pop heights. As with the 30th anniversary reissues of their previous two albums, this special pressing sees this long out of print record being remastered and expanded to include a wealth of bonus material that's sure to delight fans. Working with mastering engineer Kevin Vanbergen, this new edition runs over two discs with the album being packaged with the Fine Friend EP and a great selection of previously unheard tracks and demos as handpicked by the band. -
