Levellers - Levelling The Land (35th Anniversary) - 3CD | Pre-Order 16.10.26

Brighton folk-rockers Levellers have been one of Britain’s most enduring and best-loved bands for nearly 40 years. And part of that incredible success has been built on the timeless anthems that comprised their platinum-selling, second album Levelling The Land, which celebrates its 35th anniversary in 2026.

Recorded at Ridge Farm studios in Surrey over the summer of 1991, it was produced by Al Scott, who was charged with translating the band’s incendiary live performances into something more refined within the recording environment. Featuring the huge hit singles ‘One Way’, ‘15 Years’ and ‘Far From Home’, Levelling The Land redefined the UK’s musical landscape providing the soundtrack for a society fed up with the twin evils of Thatcherite politics, and the post-80’s pre-grunge musical wasteland.

Released just a couple of months later, the album also included fan favourites that have grown in stature over the years such as ‘The Game’, ‘Liberty Song’, ‘The Riverflow’, ‘Boatman’ and the incendiary ‘Battle Of The Beanfield’. Its enormous commercial success is testament to both the strength of the band’s songwriting and performance, and Al Scott’s superb production skills. However, both parties knew that the album didn’t truly capture the power of Levellers live.

Recorded at Ridge Farm studios in Surrey over the summer of 1991, the album was produced by Al Scott, and featured the huge UK hit singles "One Way", "15 Years" and "Far From Home", as well as fan favourites "The Game", "Liberty Song", "The Riverflow", "Boatman" and the incendiary "Battle Of The Beanfield".

Revisiting the album three and a half decades later, producer Al Scott has delivered a brand new mix of the original LP, opening up the the stereo image, which will feature on the new 1LP and on the expanded 3CD.

The 3CD Expanded Edition also features a second disc including 5x B-Sides and 9x previously unreleased Outtakes, as well as a third disc with 12x previously unreleased Demos. The 3CD set will also be released digitally.
