ALBUM REVIEW:

The Dark Debut album from 4AD label pioneers, Modern English was unlike any other of their fellow 4AD label mates coming out of this time, they had a truly unique sound brinking on the point of experimental. Mesh & Lace is filled with pure, raw and unbridled anger, dissonant rhythms, and weird noises, nothing short of miraculous and mesmerizing. It is definitely unlike their other later release that have a lighter airy feel. Truly to me Mesh & Lace has to be one of the top post punk albums of all time and a highly coveted Lp to own for any post punk music enthusiast. I know this took me some time to locate as a collector !

 

I'am moving to Germany and am FORCED to downsize my collection, everything on auction is from my private collection and have been extremely well cared for. All records have been stored in plastic sleeves and lightly played and are all in VG to NM condition. Over the next month I will be posting various hard to find /Post Punk / Punk / Goth /Deathrock / ColdWave / records.

This week I will also put on auction:

ABECEDARIANS- Resin LP,

THE SNAKE CORPS- Flesh on Flesh LP

COMSAT ANGELS-Eye of the Lens 12" (with 2 extra tracks)

keep checking back I may have something you are looking for!

Record Grading Guide

MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.

EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.

VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc.

FAIR: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and / or defaced.

POOR: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

BAD: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection filler.

As well as the above grades, Near Mint is often used as well; this is really for a record that appears new but is known to have been played because the label has light spindle marks or because it has come from a previous owner and is assumed to have been played by them. For records which appear to fall between the accepted grades, + and - are also often added to the grading.
