The period leading up to and culminating in the making of Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds' fifth studio album, Tender Prey, was a profusely fertile time for all the individual band members, overloaded with so much peripheral creative activity and personal turmoil that the entire long process of recording and mixing the album was encompassed by tumult. Inaugural recording for Tender Prey took place on 7th September 1987; the last remaining mixes were completed on 14th March 1988. During the span that those two dates cover, myriad other side projectsinvolving band members were already afoot. This new edition, gloriously re-mastered in 5.1, only enhances the radiance of the original. The deluxe double-disc collectors edition contains the remastered stereo album, the new surround mix, a specially commissioned short film made by acclaimed UK artists Iain Forsyth and Jane Pollard plus the b-sides from the singles and exclusive sleeve notes.
