Until now, The Manhattan Love Suicides debut album has only been available on vinyl record in the UK/Europe , and import CD from Magic Marker Records. So , it seems like the right time to finally issue this modern fuzz pop classic on a deluxe CD package , fully remastered (extra loud) and with 10 bonus cuts comprising single tracks previously only available on limited edition 7"s , aswell as a handful of brand new and exclusive recordings to bring you right up to date with this band's recorded output. But that's not all. In addition to the 22 tracks on the CD you also get a bonus DVD featuring all The Manhattan Love Suicides promo videos so far. The rough and raw visuals on display here perfectly compliment the no frills , no spit n' polish production of the tracks - recorded with the needles in the red and the fuzz pedals set to maximum. Despite the lo fi quality of the tracks , the pop melodies shine through and the Jesus And Mary Chain / Velvet Underground / 1960s girl group influences will be apparent to anyone who has a keen grasp of pop music history. If you missed out on this debut album the first time around , then this is your opportunity to pick up the deluxe edition and hear The Manhattan Love Suicides earliest recordings.
