The Avalanches return with their first new album in 16 years. And there are no shortcuts. Throw in the usual long-delayed-album mix of bad equipment, poor health, perfectionism, and clearance issues, and who knows, maybe we’re lucky to get Wildflower, the first new Avalanches record in 16 years. It’s a music business truism that every sample-heavy instrumental act will eventually work with guest vocalists.

The Avalanches are an Australian electronic music group formed in Melbourne in 1997. They are known for their two studio albums Since I Left You (2000) and Wildflower (2016), as well as their live and recorded DJ sets. Since I Left You was a critical and commercial success, receiving multiple awards, and has been considered both one of the best albums of the 2000s and best Australian albums of all time. It was followed in 2016 by Wildflower, which also received critical acclaim.

Wildflower is the second studio album by Australian electronic music group the Avalanches. It was first released on 1 July 2016 on Apple Music and widely on 8 July 2016 by Modular Recordings in Australia, by XL Recordings in the United Kingdom, and by Astralwerks in the United States. The album features multiple guest collaborators providing vocals and live instrumentation across its twenty-one tracks

Since I Left You, the 2000 LP that turned The Avalanches into minor musical legends, is an outlier in almost every respect. It’s a lengthy album, one that stretches out over an hour, but its seamless track-to-track glide makes it easy for the listener to get lost within the larger whole. The hundreds - or is it thousands? - of samples that make it up span the majority of the 20th century, but the finished product isn’t attached to any specific musical time period or scene. Wildflower takes you out into the world. I want to focus on Wildflower’s impressive opening sequence, the chunk of the album that actually improves on Since I Left You instead of replicating its successes with a slightly rosier tone. The older album is stuffed to bursting with hooks, but it’s unconcerned with structure, relying instead on repetition and density.

Talk about The Avalanches - Wildflower


Mazuzahn
I just noticed that my copy has two B-side labels on the first vinyl. Side C and D has correct labels, and the pressing is correct otherwise. Has anyone else got the same error?
santa
Sounds good from my initial listen, but super disappointed in the quality of sleeve. Thin and cheap standard sleve, and the inserts are already breaking at the seams. Would've sought a deluxe gatefold from Europe if I knew the US version was gonna be so poor.
Alien
Have any actual sold for the current list prices? There are 2,000 out there so I can't imagine this actually fetching more than $30?
Keel
God i'm tired of "rare" "limited" colored pressings flooding the record market these days. Super great album though!
Opimath
I hear that. Once things started getting marketed as such they become meaningless, see: Beanie baby's, modern baseball cards. Rare is usually rare because everyone except a select few threw the item in the garbage.
Scream_I LOVE YOU
100% not worth over $100 dollars. Disappointed in everyone selling.
Whitehammer
There are 2000 of these but only 1000 of the Newsbury Comics.
Zargelynd
Yeah, but the Newbury Comics version is just a different cover, which really isn't any different. Just the same cover in a box.
Dog_Uoll
I did hear that 3000 got pressed of the 4 gatefold edition. (I think)
Eigeni
Any idea how many of the x4 gatefold deluxe version have been pressed?
