Description

You're bidding on the an original Rough Trade pressing of the YOUNG MARBEL GIANTS album, COLOSSAL YOUTH (ROUGH US 6). Recorded in the UK, this is their first and only album. 

BBC Review: The Cardiff three-piece Young Marble Giants encapsulated the possibilities and boundary-stretching of what was to become known as post-punk on this, their one and only album. With arrangements so sparse they were positively skeletal, melodies so brittle it seemed if they would snap, it’s all minimal drum noise, pure voice, jumble sale organ and a budget Bernard Edwards in bassist Philip Moxham. 

Young Marble Giants arrived and departed in something of a vacuum; at a time when females were strident (think Siouxsie, think Pauline Black) or whimsical (Sally Oldfield, Judie Tzuke); Alison Statton came along with her untutored, folky approach and sang Stuart Moxham’s words to underdone perfection. 

Condition: the sleeve grades NM; it's still in the shrink wrap, which is partially torn- see photo. The record also grades NM. Original inner sleeve included, the record ships in an anti-static, dust free sleeve. Check out my feedback score; you won't be disappointed.
