What a terrible poker face

Merge Records @mergerecords.bsky.social · 15d

Long out-of-print in the UK and never before available on the format in North America, this reissue is accompanied the debut of a new Merge Records UK webstore, a brand new Clientele tee, and the official video for "House on Fire," resurrected from the enhanced CD issue of the album!

It’s remixed by Jeff Lynne and Dave Stewart plays some extra fretless bass on it.m :) The abbey road mastering is the same though.

the last of our albums not to get a reissue on vinyl... is getting a reissue. The weirdest and most hypnotic record we made, and a unanimous band fave the last time I checked.
