This Mortal Coil's backcatalog will be reissued by 4AD on October 26th. This Mortal Coil was a timeless and elegant studio project organized by Ivo Watts-Russell and featured contributions from 4AD heavyweights and musical luminaries including Cocteau Twins, Dead Can Dance, Kim Deal, Tanya Donelley, Alison Limerick, Howard Devoto, John Fryer, and more. Over the span of eight years (1983 - 1991) This Mortal Coil released three brilliant atmospheric albums: It'll End In Tears, Filigree & Shadow, and Blood.
The three albums have been newly remastered from the original analogue tapes and feature new artwork by Vaughan Oliver. Each album will be released individually on vinyl and CD. Note: these albums were previously issued on CD in 2011, however these new 2018 editions employ Ultimate High Quality Compact Disc technology rather than High Definition Compatible Digital.
