Eluvium to release volume two of comprehensive vinyl series Life Through Bombardment

20 October 2015, 11:33 | Written by Laurence Day

Eluvium have announced the second part of their vinyl anthology Life Through Bombardment, which collects all their material released since 2009.

Presented in a similar fashion - "a library-style clothbound hardcover book with seven distinct sleeves featuring new original artwork by longtime collaborator Jeannie Lynn Paske" - the majestic 7xLP boxset features Similes, Static Nocturne, Nightmare Ending, and all associated B-sides, remixes, and bonus tracks. It also features rare LP Wisdom For Debris, which originally came with Paske's art book of the same name, and a bonus album of previously unreleased rarities from 2009-2015 called Curious Things.

Like the first collection, volume two is strictly limited to 1000 copies. Each one is "hand-assembled and hand-numbered, and includes a removable library card signed by the artists."

Life Through Bombardment Vol. 2 is due out 18 December via Temporary Residence Ltd.
