Description

Here is one of the rarest and most sought-after indiepop releases that I've seen - the EP "The Novelty Wears Off" by Fragile Friends. These guys were from Liverpool and released a 7" which is hard to find and this 12" which may be nearly impossible to come by. This is some of the most insanely catchy music ever made. Each song is a pure nugget of indiepop goodness, full of crisp, clean hooks, great choruses, and perfect instrumentation. It's kind of a cross between Beatles-esque Merseybeat and classic 80s twee-style UK indiepop. And it was recorded at the legendary Leamington Spa, which adds bonus points, right? The cover is VG with some ring wear and edge wear. The vinyl is NM and plays perfectly!
The songs are: The Novelty Wears Off, A Walk in the Sunshine, No Good in Our Goodbye, Caught On the Hop.

I've got loads of records that I'll be selling in the next few weeks or so: post punk, indie, synth, powerpop, new wave, industrial, and everything in between!

Shipping prices:
