Details have been announced for LSXX, the 20th anniversary reissue of the Breeders' Platinum album, Last Splash, which will be released April 23, 2013 on 4AD.



LSXX will be available as a limited-edition, seven-disc vinyl box set, and a three-CD package. Many of the recordings included in the set have never been released before, and for other tracks, it will be the first time they receive a worldwide release. Cover and individual sleeve artwork has been created by renowned British graphic designer Vaughan Oliver, who described it as "an irreverent conceptual and visual re-imagining" of his original Last Splash artwork.



The vinyl box set includes:



- a 12-inch vinyl pressing of Last Splash

- four 10-inch EPs - Safari, Cannonball, Divine Hammer, and Head to Toe

- a 12-inch vinyl live concert album, Stockholm Syndrome, recorded in Sweden in 1994, during the band's last European tour. Seven tracks from this recording originally appeared on a fan-club-only CD; nine additional unreleased tracks from the concert are included here.

- a 12-inch vinyl record comprised of a BBC radio session recorded July 24, 1993 and available here for the first time, and the original Last Splash demo recordings, made in November, 1992

- a 24-page booklet featuring previously unpublished photographs taken during the recording of Last Splash, personal photos taken during two years of touring, and reminiscences written by band members and others, including Kim Gordon and J Mascis.



The CD release is comprised of the same material in a three-disc set.



LSXX will be available at shops as well as from Amazon.com and other online retailers. The release coincides with the Breeders' LSXX World Tour, which marks the first time Kim Deal, Kelley Deal, Josephine Wiggs and Jim Macpherson have performed together since 1994.
