Following additional touring in 2009, My Bloody Valentine dedicated their time to completing their third album. Rumours of a box set, which had circulated in April 2008 following a listing on HMV Japan's web site, began recirculating. In March 2012, after a number of reported delays, Sony Music Ireland announced the release of the compilation album "EP's 1988–1991"—a collection of the band's Creation Records extended plays, singles and unreleased tracks. The compilation album was released on 4 May 2012 along with remastered versions of "Isn't Anything" and "Loveless".
