Blemish is David Sylvian's first solo album since 1999’s Dead Bees on a Cake. It is experimental in its use of electronics and sound. It features Derek Bailey, an avant-garde guitarist and Fennesz, a guitarist and electronic music musician. It was released in 2003 and is a bold departure in its starkness and vulnerability.
