With over 15,000 units sold per album, the first two albums from Love Spirals Downward – classic shoegazer dream-pop discs – get lovely re-releases with bonus tracks, remastered and compiled by Ryan Lum himself!

Love Spirals Downwards are the unconscious mind of ethereal music, evoking forgotten memories with subjective, alien tongues. The sounds drift dreamily through one’s thoughts like incense permeates the air — perhaps the spicy fragrance will seduce you like a lover to its heat, or else it will elude the threshold of perception and weave itself into the mind’s strata of buried experiences . . . The result of this Easternish atmosphere, with delicate guitar and ebbing, oceanic female vocals is a taste of the watery, warm, and sweet elements of the earth.

Love Spirals Downwards’ masterful 1994 sophomore release remains a fan favorite to this day. Dreamy and romantic, Ardor is rich in atmosphere with lush layers of ethereal guitar textures and jangly acoustic guitars, graced by some of the best vocal work of the era’s “Heavenly Voices” genre. Like standing under a waterfall: guitar trickles and swirls like a mist around you; as warm cascading female harmonies envelop you, washing you in beauty and melancholy.

Industrial Nation “The second wave of aural resplendence from the duo of vocalist Suzanne Perry and guitar neoromancer Ryan Lum.”

Bizarre UK “To truly appreciate this album, just close your eyes and get enveloped in all its beauty.”

Vogue Singapore “An album that is compelling, evocative and very, very beautiful.”

CD in 4-panel digipak with 2 bonus tracks.
