Description

Death in the Shopping Malls (from Boston) - (Man on a) Tight-Rope 7" single - Modern Methadone - 1981 Second Pressing - VG+
This was the only release by Boston new wave post-punk band Death in the Shopping Malls, self-issued on their Modern Methadone label in 1981 (a satirical play on the Modern Method label).
There was only one original pressing of this record, but with cover variants. This version has a yellow photocopied sheet pasted onto a plain inner sleeve. Black vinyl. Please feel free to verify features of various release versions on Discogs if you have any concerns.
Overall condition is VG+/EX. Vinyl is VG+/EX with slight scuffing. Sleeve is VG with some storage wear and a few small tears, and a chunk ripped from the generic inner sleeve on the back.
