The Breeders have already announced plans for a North American tour and a 20th anniversary reissue of 1993's Last Splash, and now the Kim Deal-led alt-rock icons have confirmed the details of the deluxe Last Splash box set. Entitled LSXX, this expanded reissue will be out on April 23 through 4AD.
This limited-edition box is available either as a seven-record vinyl package or a three-CD set. The vinyl version will come with the original Last Splash LP, plus a live album called The Stockholm Syndrome (recorded in Sweden in 1994) and compilation containing a BBC radio session from 1993 with Last Splash demos from 1992. Many of these extra materials are unreleased.
These three 12-inch records will be accompanied by four 10-inch EPs: Safari, Cannonball, Divine Hammer and Head to Toe. The box will also include a 24-page booklet with photographs and written remembrances from band members and others, such as Kim Gordon (Sonic Youth) and J Mascis (Dinosaur Jr.).
The artwork for the box and the original sleeves was created by Vaughan Oliver, who designed the original Last Splash package.
The CD set will include the same songs as the vinyl package.
