Twin Peaks Original Score LP Vinyl Record by Mondo x Sam Smith x Jay Shaw

Twin Peaks Original Score LP Vinyl Record by Mondo x Sam Smith x Jay Shaw

It’s finally here!!! Mondo announced yesterday that they would be releasing the original score to one of The Blot’s all time favorite television series, Twin Peaks!!! Thanks to Mondo one of the greatest scores ever recorded is finally back in print for the first time in 25 years. For this very special release, Mondo went back to the Warner archives where engineer Tal Miller cut them brand new vinyl masters. As Mondo explained, the packaging for this release “is really handsome: it's minimal, understated and (best of all) approved by both David Lynch and Angelo Badalamenti, which is absolutely thrilling for us.”

The Twin Peaks Original Score LP comes housed inside a 425gsm gatefold sleeve featuring lyrics and liner notes by composer Angelo Badalamenti. The cover image is by Sam Smith, and the gatefold sleeve is then housed within a bespoke die cut outer jacket designed by Jay Shaw featuring super subtle white spot varnish text. The whole affair is finished with a top loading obi strip and pressed on 180 gram “Damn Fine Coffee” colored vinyl. Sounds amazing don’t you think!?! This is without a doubt a must get for The Blot!

The Twin Peaks Original Score LP goes on sale at 12pm CST tomorrow, Wednesday, August 10th, at the Mondo online store for $23. Also, Mondo listened to fans’ concerns about availability, so they pressed only one version of this record. This means no limited variants, but it also means nobody should miss out on getting this reissue!
