This 1980 Cryonic/Coma release is a re-recorded version of Art Zoyd’s first album, which had been self-released in a small issue of 500. This version expands on the original with a larger lineup. A stronger take on this material, the album is a dark and twisted take on modern music. Like fellow Rock In Opposition group Univers Zéro, they are also influenced by French Zeuhl bands such as Magma.

RECORD GRADING:

All records are conservatively graded; everything I currently have for sale comes from my personal collection has been handled carefully. I don't grade anything mint.

VG++  This is the highest grade I give.  Disc: a glossy record with no visible wear, no scratches or skips; an almost perfect record (some call NM). Record has been played only a few times on a quality turntable.  Sleeve: excellent condition, no cut-out marks or ring-wear.

VG+  Disc: Except for a few small things this record has been well cared for. Some light scuffs or very light scratches that do not affect your enjoyment of the music. Some surface noise may be audible at the start of each side. No skips or visible scratches.  Sleeve: May have one or more of the following: faint ring wear, a light crease, light wear at the corners. Small imperfections, but still in nice shape.

VG  Disc: A record that shows some wear, some audible noise, light scratches, but no gouges.  Sleeve: has some considerable wear and may have one or more of the following, sometimes with visible record ring-wear, some wear at the corners, label marks from stickers that were pulled off, seam splits and creases.

VG-  Disc: surface noise is audible; may have some small pops and clicks from shallow scratches still no major gouges.  A suitable choice for a rarity that you can’t find elsewhere. Jacket: poor condition, seam splits and creases.
