DEAD CAN DANCE Spleen And Ideal (2009 issue UK limited edition 8-track digitally remastered LP pressed on 180gram Vinyl - 'Spleen and Ideal' defined a new richness of unification between voice and music, lyrics and structurem that suggested a concrete sense of the aural ideal the band were striving for. The title of this album was taken from a piece of poetry from the 18th century romantic poet, Baudelaire, and was chosen for the fact that it evoked the 'conflict between singing flesh [spleen] and the struggle to realize the ideal'. Presented in a heavyboard picture sleeve with a newly designed inner sleeve!)**Strictly Limited to 5000 Copies ONLY**
