Edited 3 months agoNicotine stain is my favorite. Everyone raving about the sound on this. Sounds bad to me. Loaded with surface noise
-
If you have the sleeve for this (but not the record) and you'd like to sell it, send me a message. Thanks. -
My copy has a three fold poster featuring a pic of the band by Adrian Boot and UK press singles reviews for Hong Kong Garden. Also have the 45 for the aforementioned with it. Anyone know if the poster came with 45 or album or it all came together? That’s how I acquired it in US.
-
I have a beat up old copy but it still sounds amazing - what a debut - I trading for it with some singles and it was already pretty damaged by the time I got it. After a clean though it still plays pretty well!
-
It’s crazy that a 40+ year old record sounds better than any of the remastered efforts of the last 20 years. I don’t think I’ve ever heard the first batch of CDs but I’ve heard the deluxe double CD one, and the card digipak option, and can’t say I was bowled over by either.
So, get this version if you’re swaying between vinyl and CD.
Mind you, there’s some great bonus tracks on the deluxe. -
Album muito bom e com essência punk (óbvio). As letras também são boas, tendo em vista as críticas sociais e narrativas pessoais da cantora.
-
Just picked up a US reissue GHS 24046 and am happy with the pressing... I had the original UK pressing back in the day, but cannot really tell if this is better / worse. -
Edited 3 years agoFantastic debut album, no filler here just 10 tracks of punk/proto post-punk goodness. UK original pressing is the way to go here, I have a NM clean and glossy copy and it sounds phenomenal. Deep, punchy drums and bass, Siouxsies vocals are wonderfully detailed and crisp, and the guitar work sounds fantastic as well. All-around great-sounding pressing, I absolutely suggest an OG over one of the new represses especially as these are LOUD and the represses (at least my copy of Juju), gets distorted at higher volumes. 10/10, excellent album and an equally awesome pressing. This will be on my heavy rotation. -
I have a copy with a matte jacket ( some nicks and water damage in one corner)and glossy inner sleeve ( slight water damage in same corner. )Brilliant album musically, plays with minimal surface noise. I’ve owned it since maybe 1984. -
