Dead Can Dance (1981-1998) (2001) is four-disc box set, containing three CDs of music spanning Dead Can Dance's career and a DVD of their 1994 video release Toward the Within.
While most of the tracks are taken from previously released albums, this set contains a large amount of rarities as well. "Frontier (Demo)" and "The Protagonist" were originally released on the 1987 4AD compilation Lonely Is an Eyesore. "Labour of Love," "Ocean," "Orion," and "Threshold" were recorded for the John Peel Show in 1983. In 1984, a follow-up Peel Session produced the version of "Carnival of Light" contained in this set. "Sloth (Radio)" was recorded for radio and a studio version was later released on Brendan Perry's solo album, Eye of the Hunter.
