Wherever There Is Light EP & no-man DVD update
Acting as a bridge between No-Man’s elegiac 2008 return Schoolyard Ghosts and the forthcoming live concert DVD Mixtaped, Wherever There Is Light is a strictly limited edition CD release.
From Schoolyard Ghosts, the poignant title track features an incredible guest performance from US pedal steel legend Bruce Kaphan (American Music Club/Red House Painters). The alt-country tinged Death Was California and the atmospheric Counting are two new songs especially written for the EP, while Carolina Skeletons and All The Blue Changes are the first recordings released from No-Man’s Autumn 2008 mini-tour.
Also containing Grant Wakefied’s poetic video for the title track, a powerful preview from the Mixtaped DVD, and a striking Carl Glover designed digi-pack, the enhanced Wherever There Is Light EP is a rare and beautiful thing from the band Uncut memorably described as ‘Britain’s most underrated sorrowful sonic architects’.
Preorder now from Burning Shed (shipping from 11th May).

Yes, I was thinking the same thing. I received it yesterday; the super jewel case is nice, but in my opinion a digipak would have been better. After all “Wherever there is Light” is a masterpiece closer to the natural than the artificial…
