People seemed to like our 1998 "Serotonin Ronin" compilation, so we thought we'd give it another go, this time with a double dose of psych action. The first disc covers some of our favourite things from releases 11 to 24, and includes two previously unreleased tracks, an extended version of the Green Pajamas' much-loved "Sweet Sorrow", and a new Witch Hazel Sound gem called "Sketches of the Insane". Which could have been used as the compilation title, really. The second disc makes available material previously only available as free MP3s on our web site. These ephemeral items are exclusive to Camera Obscura, and most never been available in any other form before. Grab them while you have the chance.

Cover art for the compilation is again from the magick pen of Timothy Renner, noted illustrator, and the genius behind Stone Breath and Mourning Cloak.
