"The High Llamas' classic '90s output comes back to life on vinyl for the first time in over twenty years. The vibrant and colorful sweep of their remarkable six-album arc shines in new pressings of the original masters, which include the first-ever vinyl pressing for their debut album, Santa Barbara. The High Llamas were founded by Sean O'Hagan, Jon Fell, Marcus Holdaway, and Rob Allum. Following their earlier releases, The High Llamas' popularity was ascendant. They toured America in 1996-97, experiencing great heights on the indie charts, but without producing 'hits' of the proportion that V2 required. O'Hagan's arrangement skills were called upon by groups like Saint Etienne, Super Furry Animals, Doves, and Sondre Lerche. A remix album was mooted -- to reach another growing audience demographic, perhaps? With Lollo Rosso (1998), the assembled remixers -- Mouse On Mars, Jim O'Rourke, Kid Loco, Schneider TM, Stock, Hausen & Walkman, Cornelius, and The High Llamas themselves -- provided a scintillating trip through the cutting edge of avant electronics -- yet another unique set of variations for the Llamas' sound to filter though."
