A.C. Acoustics – Victory Parts

Available on CD

“Victory Parts is a near masterpiece.” (MOJO, 1997)

“Forever undervalued” (NME, 1999)

One Little Indian re-issue A. C. Acoustics’ much revered second album, Victory Parts, in remastered form including three extra tracks – Shoka, Violent Peep and 1994’s long out of print Hand Passes Plenty – in a re-ordered track list. CD2 includes a live set, The Silver Echo & the Golden Echo, recorded live at Reading Festival in 1996.

Says lead singer Paul Campion of the re-issue, “I’m particularly pleased that additional rarer tracks have been included with this release and that a live concert recording is available at last. In this case from the Reading Festival and one of the many live recordings we were fortunate enough to make for the BBC. Turn the lights down, turn the volume up and hopefully you will get some small sense of what I’m told was often a formidable live experience. Whether these recordings come to you as a first encounter or as a point on a return journey, I sincerely hope they bring you much pleasure.”
