Laying On New Waves: The 2000s Collection
Peter Murphy
This deluxe nine-LP box set brings together key Peter Murphy solo recordings from 2001 to 2017, newly remastered & presented in definitive form. Released in conjunction with Peter Murphy, spanning atmospheric studio masterpieces, intimate live performances & late-career creative peaks, the collection captures Murphy's singular artistic vision across more than fifteen years of inspired work. Each album has been remastered, delivering enhanced clarity while remaining faithful to the original recordings. Housed in premium sleeves & presented in a deluxe rigid bookcase-style box, the collection has been designed as the definitive archival edition for collectors & long-time fans alike. At the heart of the set is an extensive hardback book featuring newly commissioned writing & rare archival material. Acclaimed author & broadcaster John Robb contributes an in-depth essay exploring Murphy's remarkable creative evolution, while ANOHNI provides a personal foreword reflecting on Murphy's enduring artistic influence. Long-time collaborator & producer Youth offers his own perspective on Murphy's fearless musical journey & creative partnership. The book also includes a brand-new interview with Peter Murphy, offering fresh insight into the making of the albums, alongside previously unpublished family photographs, rare studio & live images, & archival material drawn from throughout the period. Stylishly art-directed throughout, the package reflects the elegant visual aesthetic that has always accompanied Murphy's music. From the orchestral beauty of 'Dust' & the introspective textures of 'Unshattered' to the adventurous songwriting of 'Ninth', the powerful modern rock of 'Lion', the acclaimed live document 'Alive Just For Love', & the stripped-back intimacy of 'Bare-Boned & Sacred', this collection charts an artist who has continually reinvented himself while remaining unmistakably unique. Beautifully produced & comprehensively curated, this deluxe vinyl edition is both a celebration of Peter Murphy's extraordinary solo catalogue & an essential addition for collectors of post-punk, alternative & art rock.
