So, here's how things were left five years ago, with the album Take Care, Take Care, Take Care being released as two different coloured discs, housed in a sleeve that opens out and folds up to make a house in a forest. There were three different coloured vinyl editions, with the house interior matching the colour of one disc from the respective edition. I have the green/brown version.
Now they're back with a new album, The Wilderness, which, although not matching the ambition of their previous artwork, is still pretty impressive. A sort of double fold-over sleeve, containing a poster and double vinyl (in two colours with side D being etched), all housed in a 12" card slip case. All done for no reason other than (a) it looks pretty impressive and (b) because they can.
The music? A more refined, plush update on previous efforts.
