The Exploding Universe of Ed Kuepper returns with the vinyl reissue of two bona fide classic albums on Friday, 29th March, and an April tour to celebrate. Black Ticket Day and Law Of Nature are available for pre-order now through Remote Control Records.
The two albums follow the recent reissues of Frontierland, Honey Steels Gold and Electrical Storm and the previously unreleased Mr. MiraKle. Black Ticket Day won the ARIA Award for Best Independent Release when it came out in 1992 and features much loved songs, such as the title track and ‘Real Wild Love’. Long out of print, this is the first vinyl reissue since its release over 30 years ago. Available on black or opaque purple vinyl, this is also the first time it will appear on streaming services.
Law Of Nature, the 1984 post-punk classic from Kuepper’s influential post-Saints outfit Laughing Clowns, will be reissued for the first time in over 40 years on black or royal blue vinyl. Long out of print, this will also be the first time it is available on streaming services. Featuring the timeless song ‘Eternally Yours’ the album has long held legendary status.
For the April tour Kuepper’s band will again feature drummer Mark Dawson, bassist Peter Oxley, pianist Alister Spence and brass arranger Eamon Dilworth.
