Everything But The Girl – Walking Wounded Vinyl

Half-Speed Remastered 2019

Walking Wounded is the acclaimed tenth studio album from Everything But The Girl, originally released in 1996 and representing a defining shift in the duo’s sound. Moving beyond their earlier sophisti-pop and jazz influences, Tracey Thorn and Ben Watt embraced electronic production, blending drum and bass, trip hop, and ambient textures with intimate songwriting and understated emotion.

This 2019 vinyl edition was half-speed mastered by Miles Showell at Abbey Road Studios, delivering enhanced clarity, detail, and dynamic range across the album’s intricate electronic production. The half-speed mastering process allows the textures, low-end, and atmospheric layering to breathe with added precision, making this edition especially rewarding on vinyl.

Pressed on wax, Walking Wounded balances club-inspired rhythms with emotionally vulnerable lyricism, creating a sound that remains sophisticated, melancholic, and forward-thinking decades after its original release.

Featuring standout tracks such as “Walking Wounded”, “Wrong”, and “Single”, the album stands as one of the key electronic-pop releases of the late 1990s and a cornerstone title for fans of trip hop, downtempo, and intelligent dance music.
