About This Item
Double vinyl LP pressing. Digitally remastered reissue of Shiver, the acclaimed debut album by seminal Swedish artist Virna Lindt, originally released by The Compact Organization in 1983. Written and produced by Virna Lindt and Tot Taylor, the original of Shiver offered 10 slices of chic orchestrated pop informed by 'foreign film' soundtracks, movie composers John Barry and Ennio Morricone, Modernist musique concrete and Cold War spy thrillers. The album spawned three singles 'Attention Stockholm', 'Intelligence' and 'I Experienced Love'. For the most part Lindt provides the voiceover for her own narratives, occasionally striking reflective poses amid orchestral swells and multi-layered atmospherics. Album Tracks 1. A1. Shiver 2. A2.
