Kino I – Birthdead

Wreszcie dostępna retrospekcyjna seria wczesnych nagrań Skullflowera z lat 1986-1990.

Całość wydana w postaci czterech oddzielnych płyt cd i jako całość w boxie. Wszystkie utwory zostały zremasterowane przez Richarda Whittakera.

KINO 1 zawiera materiał z ich pierwszej 12-calowej epki oraz sześciu niepublikowanych wcześniej utworów.

Finally available, a much needed retrospective of Skullflower's early works from 1986 – 1990 spread across four separate releases, featuring all the material previously released on Broken Flag, Shock, Majora and Forced Exposure, plus around two hours of previously unheard music – 14 of them spread across the series. And this is not 'out-take' dross used to fill up time, this is essential early Skullflower providing further insight into their uniquely twisted musical world. All material has been digitally mastered by Richard Whittaker at FX. Vol I comprises the remastered first 12" EP, available in its entirety for the first time since 1987, plus six previously unreleased, unheard and undreamed of tracks."
