Four Days - The 30th Anniversary (Remastered)/Expanded )

by Legendary Pink Dots

supported by

Belette Malade "The Day She Left" is one of the best made album openers ever.

Schuyler Brundage This remastered edition is fantastic.
I hope that one day this can be pressed to vinyl. Favorite track: Divine Resignation Part 1.

thenewspaper That "turn of the decade" sound, ahhhh, and the Dots here are sprinting through the creation of an experimental album--which gives it particular esprit. Good for rainy day indoor mental sprint. And with all the extra tracks, you can't go wrong...this version's mechanical, whimsical ending puts a further edge on the spirit of Four Days.

And "Divine R pt. 1" has NEVER SOUNDED SO CATACLYSMIC!! Favorite track: Divine Resignation Part 1.

Alzarius I was already quite impressed that this was recorded in just four days, and then, 30 years later we find out that there was even MORE!?!? The expanded material is just as glorious as the original, and the remastering is phenominal!

about

The DAT tape was unmarked, the DAT recorder/player had been repaired and treasure was hiding between the ones and zeroes. In fact, more than an hour of unreleased/ unheard sessions for "Four Days" emerged which has been edited for this special expanded edition of the 1994 album. Consider this one as the final word on this release.
Again, here is the story of "Four Days".
1990. Summer. Both EK and The Silverman were hopelessly addicted to vinyl but didn't have the money to feed their habit. A little bird whispered to Phil that another collector in the North of Holland had the 3 (Lard free) albums he desired the most AND the aforesaid had just discovered the Pink Dots. It was true , but Henk - the owner of those 3 elusive discs already had already amassed a huge collection of Dots' titles.
Consequently we agreed to make a cassette release just for Henk (who is still a dear friend). Yup an edition of just 1, with Edward's partner at the time, Elke, making the cover.It took four days.
However Henk insisted the world should hear it, so another 99 cassettes were made. later it was 3,000 cds on The Dots' own TEKA label, and then a Polish re-release.Home-made in every way , but with loving care.
