Arrivals - Deluxe US Edition (Double LP)

€45.00

Originally released by Warner Music in Ireland and the UK, April 2021, upon its release, Arrivals received widespread critical acclaim in the UK and Irish music press. Mojo magazine described O’Rourke as “a masterful lyricist and a staggering guitarist” and BBC2 Radio Ulster called Arrivals “an album of rare poetic beauty.

With the opportunity of a US release, it was decided to add some extra special bonus material. Consequently, 'Arrivals (Deluxe U.S. Edition)' includes a bonus disc with five extra tracks: two previously unreleased songs from the original Black Barn Studio sessions (with Paul Weller in the production chair), and three songs newly re-mixed from the online-only launch of Arrivals, as broadcast from Dublin's Abbey Theatre during covid restrictions.

Behind a newly selected cover image from Lawrence Watson's original photo shoot, this gorgeous double LP features a beautiful gatefold sleeve + 2 printed inner sleeves, all complete with lyrics, artwork, and beautiful in-studio photography, while at the heart of the package are 2 x coloured vinyl discs; one blue, and one orange, each awaiting transportation to your turntable, speakers, and ears.
