Re-issue of ‘And also the trees’ live album recorded in Lausanne, Switzerland on 24th October 1986 during one of the bands early European tours.

Unavailable on any format since the early 90’s the new, remixed, CD only, edition with the original LP cover artwork includes 4 extra tracks, previously unseen photos and a forward written by the bands singer Simon Huw Jones.

This multi track mobile studio recording captures an especially intense performance from the cult, English post-punk band as they were performing songs from recently released classic album ‘Virus Meadow’ as well as their early singles and debut album. Having toured in the UK, alone as well as with The Cure it was in 1986 that they discovered to their surprise that they were better know in mainland Europe. They were, as the sleeve notes say, ”slightly out of control but on the rise”.
