The Avalanches’ landmark debut LP, Since I Left You, is finally available on vinyl again – this time on never seen before, limited edition blue coloured 2LP. Fans can pre-order HERE, with the vinyl hitting shelves from January 27.
Last month, The Avalanches gave fans the opportunity to choose the colour of the standard vinyl edition of Since I Left You via their website. Blue topped the poll – it’s the first time in years that the standard version with original track listing has been made available. In April 2017, the vinyl will be released in a Deluxe version including bonus tracks.
The record’s singles Frontier Psychiatrist and Since I Left You were accompanied by dazzling, unforgettable videos that captured punters imaginations as much as the music itself.
The overwhelming reception of the record led The Avalanches on an infamous world tour that resulted in raucous, joyous festival shows, kitchen sink club DJ sets, media offices set alight, two broken legs and an indecent amount of nudity.
The release and touring of Since I Left You was followed by a 16 year radio silence which was broken this year with the long-awaited release of Wildflower.
At the end of the month The Avalanches will embark on a select group of Festival and standalone dates, including Falls Festival and shows in Adelaide, Melbourne and Sydney.
