Product Details

Ivo Watts-Russell's 4AD collective reached its most expansive and atmospheric peak with this 1986 double album, drawing on a rotating cast of collaborators to create something closer to a mood or a place than a conventional record. Where its predecessor *It'll End in Tears* leaned on stark covers, *Filigree & Shadow* spreads wider, incorporating original compositions alongside reimagined songs and building the kind of immersive sonic architecture that influenced a generation of dream pop and post-rock artists.

Following the sell-out release of the This Mortal Coil box set in 2011, 4AD are replacing all existing CD versions of the albums with the re-mastered editions of the albums. Manufactured in Japan, each album is packaged in a vinyl replica, heavy board gatefold sleeve with a printed inner sleeve and booklet.
