In a blink of the cosmic eye, Lucy Liyou has moved mountains in the ever-emerging ecosystem of contemporary experimental pop.

Today, Liyou has announced they'll be reissuing these already seminal records as a double album on vinyl and CD, shipping out May 20 via American Dreams Records.
To celebrate the news, they've shared visuals for Welfare's only miniature track, "Unnie," premiering here.
