Dead Can Dance - Garden Of The Arcane Delights / The John Peel Sessions 2xLP

Label: 4AD

Garden Of The Arcane Delights was the only EP released by Dead Can Dance, coming out in 1984 and acting as a bridge between their first two albums. Its sleeve a sketch by Brendan Perry, depicting primal man deprived of perception, standing within the confines of a garden containing a fountain and trees laden with fruit... a Blakean universe in which mankind can only redeem itself, can only rid itself of blindness, through the correct interpretation of signs and events that permeate the fabric of nature’s laws. This new expanded version sees the EP also including both of the band’s sessions for John Peel, recorded in the same time period.
