The Church Starfish (Expanded Edition) Hybrid Stereo SACD

Artist-Approved Expanded Edition On SACD!
Mastered Direct-to-DSD From The Original Master Tapes by Ryan K. Smith at Sterling Sound!
Includes 8 Amazing Bonus Tracks Not On The Original Release!
Intervention Records is proud to announce that The Church's 1988 smash Starfish arrives on remastered Hybrid CD/SACD in May 2021.
Starfish is a dreamy, atmospheric masterpiece, guitar-driven alt-rock before alt-rock was a term. It includes the timeless smash hit "Under The Milky Way", and "Reptile", both First Wave staples.
The fifth album "Starfish" brought the Australian rock band The Church their commercial breakthrough. Released in 1998 on the Mushroom Records label, it has sold over 600,000 copies in the U.S. alone. With its dreamy, atmospheric post-rock, the single "Under the Milky Way" became a hit.
Intervention's Artist-Approved Expanded Edition CD/SACD is 18-tracks total, including 8 amazing bonus tracks not on the original release. These bonus tracks kick off with wonderful acoustic versions of "Under The Milky Way" and "Antenna". The other tracks are so strong it's very apparent that Starfish could have been a potent double LP.
Starfish is Mastered Direct-to-DSD from THE Original Master Tapes by Ryan K. Smith at Sterling Sound. Intervention's cut opens up the already massive soundstage and presents this amazing recording with FULL bass extension and dynamic power. All of the 8 bonus tracks are Mastered Direct-to-DSD from analog tapes assembled by Ryan K. Smith.
Starfish's album art was lovingly restored by Intervention's Art Director Tom Vadakan.
'Under the Milky Way,' still one of the most haunting and elegant songs ever to make the Top 40. - AllMusic
