about

Warren Defever’s beloved, long-standing ethereal darkwave project His Name Is Alive has a long history with 4AD, and in celebration of the band’s early works, 4AD are proud to be releasing the strictly limited, Deluxe 6xLP, 63-track Boxset entitled How Ghosts Affect Relationships: 1990-1993, available September 27 exclusively on the 4AD webstore and Bandcamp.

This essential collectible compiles the first three His Name Is Alive albums (Livonia, Home Is In Your Head, and Mouth By Mouth), sourced from the original analogue tapes and painstakingly remastered by Defever himself (at Third Man Mastering), with three additional LPs of rich, bonus material and unreleased tracks (including The Dirt Eaters EP). The collection is also accompanied by an extensive 36-page book authored by 4AD biographer Martin Aston, detailing the fascinating story of His Name Is Alive’s early period with previously unseen imagery and ephemera, as well as written contributions from Ivo Watts-Russell, Johnny Jewel, and more.

The collection of only 1,000 Limited Edition Foil-Stamped Numbered copies, delivered in a hard slipcase box, also features overall design by Chris Bigg (including unique-to-this-release reimagined gatefold sleeves), respectfully reimagined from original Art Direction and Design by Vaughan Oliver/v23. Also in the box includes a replica of each album’s original promotional poster, and a signed print.
