Given their acclaim during the post-punk years, it was unthinkable that the Norwegian duo known as ( and ) had allowed their catalog of six studio albums to vanish from circulation for 22 years. That changed in 2003 when, of Rune Grammofon, reissued the band's first two albums, (1981) and (1983), as a beautifully remastered and wonderfully packaged double CD entitled on his new imprint called Rune Arkiv. In 2005 their third album, (1985), appeared as a very limited-edition CD, but soon sold out of its pressing. This four-disc eponymously titled box compiles as well the group's three remaining studio efforts, (1987), The Colour Album (1989), and Dreams (1992).

What's striking about the box of these final four albums is the development of the band's sound. While was certainly influenced by, the sound of shifted somewhat, adding an acoustic piano to its mix. When released, they made the piano a prominent ingredient in their sound. When it came to releasing the self-financed and recorded album, its original version (included here) contained no guitars in its mix -- they were added later by Virgin International when they licensed the recording and signed the band.

This box includes those final four albums, all packaged artfully thanks to a stellar design by Magnus Voll Mathiassen, and with painstakingly remastered sound.

Further, each album contains a liner essay and annotations by in his liner notes. Between this and, the entire catalog of the original band's oeuvre is finally available for fans -- and who else would consider this but fans?
