“…she’s got a certain magic that’s all her own” – Metro   “Just fantastic” – The Guardian   “A fantastically dark and unsettling debut” – NME   Polly Scattergood today announces details of a reissue of her self-titled debut album. Available on vinyl for the first time, the album is released September 16 as a limited double pink vinyl edition with exclusive etching and two additional tracks – “Crystal Breaks” and “Number 24.”   Pre-order the vinyl here.   Polly Scattergood began to garner attention and acclaim in 2007 with the dreamlike single "Nitrogen Pink" – described by the Guardian as “...just fantastic” and by NME as “massive” – and in 2008 with "I Hate The Way" (both feature on the album) before her debut album arrived on Mute in the spring of 2009. The interim time between her debut single and the self-titled album had been spent gathering a live following through intimate and intriguing performances. These performances included a series of shows from the memorable Pollyworld cabin, hand built within the environs of a London festival, where she also hosted early performances by Florence and the Machine and Wild Beasts.   On her debut album, which also features the singles “Other Too Endless,” “Please Don’t Touch,” and “Bunny Club,” Polly conjured up a looking glass world where nothing is quite how it first appears to be. Produced by labelmate Simon Fisher Turner; the influential producer, engineer, and artist Gareth Jones (Sunroof, Liars, Depeche Mode and Apparat); and Mute’s founder Daniel Miller, the album introduced the world to her brilliantly unsettling pop sensibilities.   Since the release of her debut in 2009, Polly has released three acclaimed albums as well as an EP titled “In The Absence Of Light” with multi-instrumentalist Jim Sclavunos. Most recently she collaborated with William Orbit who reworked her track “Colours Colliding” (from 2013’s Arrows) for his latest album, The Painter. Watch William Orbit & Polly Scattergood’s beautiful live performance of “Colours Colliding” on Later… with Jools Holland here.   The William Orbit track followed an incredible collaboration with Chris Liebing on his last two albums for Mute (Burn Slow in 2018 and Another Day in 2021). Their single was given the remix treatment from Radio Slave earlier this month. Listen to Radio Slave’s take on “Another Day” featuring Polly Scattergood here.   .   Polly Scattergood Tracklisting A1 I Hate The Way A2 Other Too Endless A3 Untitled 27 A4 Please Don’t Touch B1 I Am Strong B2 Unforgiving Arms B3 Poem Song B4Bunny Club C1 Nitrogen Pink C2 Breathe In Breathe Out C3 Crystal Breaks C4 Number 24   Pre-order the Polly Scattergood vinyl edition POLLY SCATTERGOOD: LINKTREE | PATREON | FACEBOOK | TWITTER | INSTAGRAM | APPLE MUSIC | SPOTIFY | BANDCAMP   MUTE: WEBSITE | FACEBOOK | TWITTER | INSTAGRAM
