After finishing Pink Floyd’s Animals stadium tour, Roger Waters devised the concept for the album The Wall, which was released in November ‘79. The Wall, which is a partly autobiographical story about a fictional rock star named Pink, topped the album charts in the U.S., France, Germany, Sweden and Australia.

Following the earlier release of The Wall Discovery Edition, we now see The Wall available in Experience, Immersion Box Set and vinyl editions!

Discovery Edition
Digitally remastered by James Guthrie (co-producer of The Wall) and reissued with newly crafted packaging and booklet created by the band’s long-time artwork collaborator Storm Thorgerson.

Experience Edition

THE VINYL WORD: GRIMES' FANTASTIC NEW LP 'VISIONS' AVAILABLE ON WAX!

February 24, 2012 - The Record Exchange Blog - by - No Comments

BUY THE VINYL HERE

Claire Boucher works across many media. In addition to making music, the restless producer and mesmeric voice behind Grimes is an artist (she makes her own album covers), a filmmaker (she directs her own music videos), and a dancer (she choreographs them). Her most ambitious project, though, may be herself. Over a rush of ever-stronger records, she’s molded herself into a bizarro pop star, bridging the chasm between the leftfield home recordings of so many cassette-only releases and the picture-book confections of her idol Mariah Carey. On her 4AD debut, Visions, she continues her march toward accessibility, rendering hazy, quixotic sketches into tangible, hook-heavy electro-pop.

Like all Grimes albums, Visions was tracked alone in Boucher’s bedroom and pieced together on GarageBand, but it’s crafted with such attention to detail that it makes its predecessors feel like test runs. The album’s big dance pieces, “Vowels = Space And Time” and “Be A Body,” are the first Grimes tracks that could play in clubs. The cleaner fidelity and tighter song structures haven’t hampered Boucher’s sense of exploration, though. She still cycles through influences voraciously, using sprightly Korean pop, Cocteau Twins-styled dreamscapes, and Depeche Mode’s nocturnal synths as springboards for ever-weirder explorations. In other hands this lattice of unrelated strains of dance, New Age, bubblegum, and R&B could collapse under the weight of its own busyness—or worse, its own preciousness—but Boucher’s command of mood is so strong, and her ear for melody so selective, that she handily avoids those traps. — The A.V. Club
