Ladytron have announced a 20th anniversary reissue of second album ‘Light & Magic’ and shared a previously unreleased video for the record’s title track.The anniversary edition of ‘Light & Magic’ – the original of which arrived in 2002 – is due out September 17, with the band promising to release a series of unseen material to go alongside it.The first of those releases is the music video for the title track, which can be seen below:Speaking about the clip, the band said that “when we released ‘Light & Magic’ it was expected that the title track would be a later single, and would therefore need a video clip of its own.
