Figure 8 is the fifth studio album by American singer-songwriter Elliott Smith, originally released in April 2000 via DreamWorks Records.
Smith was born in Omaha, Nebraska, raised primarily in Texas, and lived much of his life in Portland, Oregon, where he first gained popularity. Smith's primary instrument was the guitar, though he also played piano, clarinet, bass guitar, drums, and harmonica.
Smith had a distinctive vocal style, characterized by his "whispery, spider web-thin delivery", and often used multi-tracking to create vocal layers, textures, and harmonies.
Figure 8 was the final album he completed before his death, it was recorded from 1998 to 2000 at numerous studios. The wall Smith stands in front of in Autumn de Wilde's photograph on the cover of the album exists in Los Angeles, and since his death it has become a memorial to him.
This limited ‘Back To Black’ series double 2LP record is on 180 gram heavyweight black vinyl with printed inner sleeves and digital download code. Reissued in May 2017 via Geffen Records.
