Xymox's very first release, limited to 500 copies when first available, and now with six rare demo versions of tracks that later appeared on their 1985 4AD debut album. Xymox was founded in Nijmegen, the Netherlands in 1983, by Ronny Moorings and Anke Wolbert. In 1984, after moving to Amsterdam they released 'SUBSEQUENT PLEASURES' domestically on their own label. Only 500 copies were made available ever. It's a roughly recorded mini-album, recorded and mixed at home on a portable four-track recorder. One of the songs, 'Moscovite Musquito', was later in 1987 re-recorded for the compilation album 'Lonely Is An Eyesore' on the London based 4-AD label. SUBSEQUENT PLEASURES' has deliberately not been available for the last ten years because XYMOX always viewed this album as a 'Youth Sin', an 'Experiment', a 'Learning Process' as XYMOX did not really master any specific instruments at that time. Later in 1984 XYMOX were joined by Pieter Nooten, a new demo was recorded, this time on aa eight-track recorder in a small studio called 'Octopus'. Live dates followed, bravely facing the remnants of the 'Hippy Culture' in 'the'Dutch backwaters. After a meeting with and subsequent support to 'Dead Can Dance' XYMOX approached 4-AD and became the labels first new signing since 'Dead Can Dance'.
