Aztec Camera's debut record High Land, Hard Rain is being reissued as an expanded two-disc set on February 18th. The reissue celebrates the album's 30th anniversary even if a bit late -- HLHR was originally released in 1983 -- though last December Aztec Camera marked the anniversary with a handful of gigs in the U.K. Regardless, the 2014 version of the album boasts remastered original material plus a bonus disc with alternate mixes and live session tracks. Stream the anniversary edition in full ahead of its release now on Pitchfork. Pre-order through Amazon.
