The highly anticipated vinyl reissue of this '90s classic comes in a gold foil embossed artwork. Michael Head (Pale Fountains, Shack) launched The Strands in 1993, collaborating with his brother John, drummer Iain Templeton, and others. Despite halted sessions due to a Shack recording deal, the unfinished project was salvaged by producer Mark Coyle and French promoter St�phane Bismuth. Released in 1997 via Megaphone Records, 'The Magical World Of The Strands' became a cult favorite. "It's like Nick Drake is strumming along with the Stone Roses."Released on black vinyl.
