On their eponymous debut release (from 1984), Dead Can Dance successfully harnessed a 'bewitching barrage of sounds, layering grinding guitars and even a dulcimer-like yang chin over a taut wash of percussion.'

 

A dark and brooding introduction to the astonishing talents of Lisa Gerrard and Brendan Perry.

 

This 2016 LP version is a replica repress of the original release.
