XTC Apple Venus Volume One Vinyl LP

Apple Venus Volume 1 marks XTC’s grand, orchestral rebirth after a seven‑year hiatus — a sweeping chamber‑pop statement built around strings, acoustic textures and some of the most emotionally resonant songwriting of Andy Partridge and Colin Moulding’s career.

This 2018 reissue, pressed on 200‑gram heavyweight vinyl and remastered by Jason Mitchell at Loud Mastering with approval from Partridge, offers a rich, detailed presentation of one of the band’s most celebrated late‑period works. A lush, meticulously crafted album that stands as a high point in XTC’s discography.
