Concluding the exhaustive archiving of their discography, this box set focuses on the band's profoundly ambitious final era, featuring the swan-song masterpiece 'Leaves Turn Inside You'. The collection documents their complete departure from aggressive noise-punk into sprawling, gothic post-rock orchestration utilizing synthesizers, mellotrons, and expanded instrumentation. It functions as the breathtaking, melancholic final chapter of one of independent music's most flawless catalogs.
