2CD – Import

Pale Saints and 4AD present the 30th anniversary expanded edition of the band’s third and final album, “Slow Buildings”. Primed by the brilliant single “Fine Friend”, the record 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 Barham’s vocals could hit new, pop heights.

Working with mastering engineer Kevin Vanbergen, this special package sees the long out of print record being remastered and expanded to include the “Fine Friend” EP, and a selection of previously unheard tracks and demos handpicked by the band. The 30th anniversary remastered expanded double CD edition of “Slow Buildings” is housed in a sleeve designed by Timothy O’Donnell and Roy Burns III using the original art photography by Dominic Davies. A record that stands the test of time 30 years on, “Slow Buildings” is well worthy of reappraisal.
