Pink Turns Blue - Meta LP
NEW. SEALED.
DAIS Records
Recorded on the heels of their debut album If Two World Kiss (Also reissued byDais on August 9th) and informed by the band’s oscillating live synergy andbolstered by a boon of new equipment and texture, Pink Turns Blue’ssophomore album Meta (1988) was a conceptual leap predicated by the studyof sound and exploration of its edges. With the same fervor that Joy Divisionmined deeper, darker, and less linear on Closer, Meta is a cohesive meditationon atmosphere and how every note and passage can traverse space individuallyand as part of a larger narrative.Recorded by Jané Krizaj known for producing most of Laibach’smaterial, Meta’s sessions took place in a basement studio located below astadium. Then a part of Yugoslavia, the studio located in Slovenia wasaffordable but lacked many modern recording amenities so the band’s missionwas to smuggle valuable equipment through in exchange for recording time.Riding the excitement, cultural experience, and friendship of Laibach born onthe road and further fostered throughout the vibrant Ljubljana music scene andCroatian coast, Meta’s feel is an musical manifestation of the beautifulconfusion of exploring new and unfamiliar.Remastered and returned to its original vinyl format for the first time since1988 through Dais, Meta flexes the songwriting muscle and spirit of the band’ssecond iteration, informed by an entirely different set of circumstance andvocabulary. Most importantly, the album’s nine tracks evolved the band’ssound and undeniable imprint on darkwave, shaping its very vocabulary andsonic identity past Europe and into fans looking below the surface for melodyand meaning.Dais is proud to present the first ever official reissue of this classic deathrock /darkwave masterpiece. Limited vinyl edition is repackaged from the original artassets, in 24 pt reverse board jackets with inner euro sleeves with lyrics.
