MFO 43904CD
|
2008 release. The band's eighth studio album. "David Gedge here reunites with Steve Albini, who engineed the Weddoes' 1991 album Seamonster, and the resulting record echoes that album's terse, quick sound" --Pitchfork. "Gedge's songcraft, which started out excellent . . . has only improved with age. . . . Between this and Take Fountain (MFO 43901CD/SCOPITONE 020LP), it's great to have Gedge back. " --PopMatters

2007 release. Recordings of two live concerts from 1987 (in Leicester, England, and München, Germany) with sleeve notes by the band's original drummer, Shaun Charman. These recordings formed the first two releases in the band's own Live Tape series (cassettes that the band sold at concerts and through their fanzine in the '80s and '90s); the series was unavailable elsewhere, so the cassettes have since become rare collectors' items. This is the first in the Scopitones label's series of beautifully mastered double-CD re-releases, all of which have been graciously received by the band's loyal fans.

MFO 43901CD
|
2005 release. Featuring 11 songs written by David Gedge and Simon Cleave, Take Fountain marked the end of The Wedding Present's nine-year gap between studio albums following 1996's Saturnalia. Recorded in Seattle by Steve Fisk, who also produced The Wedding Present's 1994 Watusi album. Take Fountain is a body of songs so heartfelt that it's impossible not to be moved by them, matching, if not surpassing, the quality of anything Gedge had previously recorded and released.
