Hey folks - we only have one new release for you this week. It’s the score to a little known TV series set in the fictional town of Twin Peaks...funnily enough called Twin Peaks! We are overjoyed to finally be releasing this for you. The package is really handsome: it's minimal, understated and (best of all) approved by both David Lynch & Angelo Badalamenti, which is absolutely thrilling for us.

Also, we listened to your concerns about availability. We pressed one version of this record - that means no limited variants, but it also means nobody should miss out on getting this reissue!

As always, all new releases go on sale on Wednesdays at 12PM (CST).

One of the greatest scores ever recorded is finally back in print for the first time in 25 years! We went back to the Warner archives, where engineer Tal Miller cut us brand new vinyl masters. We then worked with Dave Cheppa at Plush Vinyl to cut us new lacquers. Finally we asked Rainbo to press the record on 180g vinyl for the best possible sound quality.

The record comes housed inside a 425gsm gatefold sleeve featuring lyrics and liner notes by composer Angelo Badalamenti; the cover image by Sam Smith comes approved by David Lynch himself! The gatefold sleeve is then housed within a bespoke die cut outer jacket designed by Jay Shaw featuring super subtle white spot varnish text. The whole affair is finished with a top loading obi strip & pressed on ‘Damn Fine Coffee' colored vinyl.

“I'm glad that after 25 years, Death Waltz Recording Company has re-released the original soundtrack for Twin Peaks for a new audience to enjoy. This is my defining work as a composer and I’m happy it will get a fresh listen” - Angelo Badalamenti, 2016

Thanks @C.C. 95! I haven't ordered it yet. I'm a bit dubious about Zavvi's packaging but that is the best value so I will probably take a chance. Thanks for the heads up mate!:)

The packaging I got my last vinyl in was the same as what I've had from Hmv, Amazon and eBay & discogs sellers but maybe that was a fluke.

Also just noticed zav have some of their older releases back that sold out months ago.

I'm hoping they get the taxi tri colour of taxi driver. Don't fancy the yellow one and gutted i missed it
All vinyl I've ordered from Zavvi in the past have also arrived in the standard cardboard mailers that other retailers use. Granted it's been a while since I've bought vinyl from Zavvi though, so I'm not sure if they've changed their packaging since then... I can't see why they would though.
 
I see people receiving it for a few days now.. Mine isn't even dispatched yet.. :bored: Was hoping to get it next week, now I'll probably have to wait another week

Got my copy today (arrived yesterday) and it's a beautiful release. The White outer jacket feels so nice quite like the third man hateful eight gatefold (trifold)

The vinyl itself is a lovely colour and I have some crazy rainbow colours in mine. Looks awesome

Just listening now and it's been a while since I heard this music, sooo good. Making me sleepy too

Congrats @Flloydo, looks really good! I love the colour of the Vinyl!:)
 
@Flloydo looks great been reading a lot of reviews re warped and poor pressings with lots of surface noise & pops i think mainly on side A
how is yours sounding?

Mine sounded fine, I heard the tiniest crackle/ pop on track 2 side A and that was it. Really smooth sound

I'm not James but my record sounds perfect. No problems here.
;)
 
Back up to buy at zavvi but the price is currently £29.99

Also My packaging it arrived in was perfect and no damage what so ever. I'll upload a photo in a bit

Can't stress how nice this release is for a twin peaker
