This 2013 album found the veteran alternative band exploring a dense, often noisy sound, bringing together a decade's worth of material recorded in disparate locations.
- The album was recorded between 2003 and 2012, with sessions taking place in various locations including a church in France and a garage in Rhode Island.
- "Purgatory/Paradise" was released 25 years after the band's debut album.
- The album was released on Fire Records, a label that has also reissued much of the band's earlier catalog.
Throwing Muses were formed in Newport, Rhode Island in 1981, by step-sisters Kristin Hersh and Tanya Donelly. The band is known for its unconventional song structures and Hersh's distinctive vocal style. "Purgatory/Paradise" was released late in the band's career, long after their initial period of mainstream attention.
