Description
Limited box set comes in a bespoke 7" box and includes CD plus various ephemera consisting of the original album in a special gatefold sleeve - long deleted 7" vinyl single pertaining to the relevant year of release - reproduction gig flyers - double sided wall poster - and four button lapel badges for wearing with pride Digitally remastered edition of the 1985 album from British cult outfit Felt. Produced by Robin Guthrie of Cocteau Twins and featuring the skyscraping vocal of Elizabeth Fraser on the mighty 'Primitive Painters'. Felt found themselves at the top of the independent charts. Unhappy with the overall sound though - it was as if some of Lawrence's best songs were lost in an "ethereal swirl. " John A. Rivers has been given access to the original master tapes and six songs have been remixed. Also - side Two has been focused, edited and "made symmetrical. " Finally, these songs can be heard as intended by Felt. It has become at long last a cohesive whole.

Out of all the Cherry Red box re-issues in this series, this is essential. Not only because its one of Felt's finest, but because you've never heard it like this before. Its literally the difference between bad B & W antenna reception and Technicolor HD.Originally produced by Robin Guthrie of The Cocteau Twins, Felt's front man, Lawrence was far from pleased by the results. He stated bluntly that Guthrie had "ruined" his best songs. And he was right. Guthrie just made it sound like Cocteau Twins record. Which was a great disservice to Felt's signature sound. The album was simply a tinny, murky mess. What's more, Lawrence's intimate, vocals were completely buried in the mix.Finally My Darkest Light Will Shine lives up to title. An intoxicating swirl of jangling guitars and Lawrence's intimate vocal delivery sounding full and upfront. Whispering not so sweet nothings in your ear. The Day The Rain Came Down is less like smirr on the moor and more like crystal clear spring drops on a window pane. The major album highlight is of course their one "hit", Primitive Painters. The original reduced Lawrence's vocals to an inaudible mumble leaving Elizabeth Fraser to drown him out, yowling out of nowhere like a cat in heat. Here the vocals are finely balanced. Complimenting as opposed to battling each other. Cannot emphasize enough how glorious this sounds.Instrumentals like Textile Ranch, have depth and clarity. As opposed to being a hazy wash before. Its also a real pleasure to not have to strain to hear the lyrics on the oh so haunting, Black Ship In The Harbor. Where the Robin Guthrie mix of Caspian See sounded full fathoms drowned, this remastered version sparkles and shimmers like sun on the water's surface.Felt's records are increasingly difficult hard to come by. And you won't find this remaster on iTunes or Spotify. So this is the only place to hear it. I also can't recommend the rest in this re-issue series enough. Both Strange Idols and Forever Breathes The Lonely Word sound amazing. True, some take issue with packaging (lack of original cover art) and extraneous ephemera like buttons and coasters. But the real sights are in the sounds. And these reissues sound stunning. Felt is a criminally neglected band and production-wise, Ignite has been a criminally neglected album. Now you can finally hear this masterpiece for the first time.
