First-time vinyl reissue of 12-inch/EP tracks from the '80s and '90s. Remastered from the original tapes by Kevin Metcalf and then reissued for the first time in 2009 as part of th e World In Your Eyes 3CD set on Reactor. Now remastered for vinyl and re-cut to lacquers by Shawn Joseph / Optimum Mastering and issued as Twelves (similar to their 7-inch comp called Sevens. Each side of this 3LP set has one of the 12"s in full, as well as the promo only live 12-inch Prisma Uber Europa. The 12-inch cover of each LP has the relevant sleeve on each side to recreate the original sleeve image, and each 12-inch side has labels as close to the original designs as possible. Hear Loop expand their sound from the Stooges / Velvets / garage pyschout of 16 Dreams, into the Spinning era and then develop their motorik fuzzed-out nihilistic pummel through the Collision and Black Sun EPs to finish this set with the Arc-Lite side, possibly Loop at their most visceral. Unable to be pigeonholed like most bands of this time, their live shows also wiped the floor with everyone as evidenced on the Prisma Uber Europa 12". Show more
