Movietone is an English post-rock band that formed in Bristol, England in 1994. With their unique blend of experimental sounds and atmospheric melodies, they have established themselves as pioneers in the genre. Drawing inspiration from a diverse range of influences, Movietone's music takes listeners on a captivating sonic journey.

Similar to other notable artists such as Hood, Crescent, and Flying Saucer Attack, Movietone has carved out their own distinct sound within the post-rock scene. Their music evokes a sense of introspection and emotion, creating a powerful connection with their audience.

With albums like "The Blossom Filled Streets" and "Day and Night," Movietone has received critical acclaim for their innovative approach to songwriting and composition. Their ability to seamlessly blend different musical elements sets them apart from their contemporaries.

World Of Echo are proud to announce the long-awaited reissue, of the self-titled debut album by Bristol’s Movietone. Originally released in 1995 by Planet Records and reissued on CD in 2003 by The Pastels’ Geographic Music imprint, this is the first time Movietone has been reissued on vinyl. An expanded double-LP edition, it includes the extra tracks from the 2003 CD (their first two singles, and an unreleased demo of “Chance Is Her Opera”), and adds three more unearthed gems: demos of “Alkaline Eye” and “She Smiled Mandarine Like”, and an early take of “Late July”, recorded in a garden by Dave Pearce (Flying Saucer Attack) in 1993. Taken together, this is the definitive collection of music from the first phase of one of Bristol’s most remarkable groups.
