TRICKY - MAXINQUAYE
The vinyl reissue of the album "MAXINQUAYE " by Tricky Single 180 Gram COLORED VINYL Foil Numbered Gatefold Sleeve Including Insert
Around the time Tricky emerged as a solo artist, independent of the Massive Attack collective, he was asked to describe his music. "If you want to dance to it, go ahead. If you want to sit in a darkened room and let it fill your head with strange thoughts, that's fine too".
'Trip Hop', a term Tricky soon grew to despise, has become so omnipresent over the years, that it's easy to forget how outside the mainstream it once was. Tricky's 1995 debut Maxinquaye is one of those albums that brought the music to the forefront, entering the UK charts at #2 on its release despite a shocking lack of airplay, and ending up topping many, many year-end lists.
But despite its being a harbinger of one of the most prevalent music styles of the nineties, it exists outside of trends and time and still stands as a powerhouse of musical innovation almost twenty years on.
Vocalists Martina Topley-Bird and Goldfrapp work as modern day female Pied Pipers, luring you into Tricky's dark, menacing, haunting and overall disturbing world: a ghostly Hades painted in vivid imagery by Tricky's lisping and lilting flow on top of tantalizing beats.
An essential album for any collection if ever there was one...

There are many options when it comes to shopping for vinyl records, and we want everyone to know why you should shop with us.
PACKAGING
We try our best to secure each record that leaves our hands, to arrive in the same condition to its new owner. Each record is wrapped tightly in A-fluted corrugated cardboard paper, which not only is more environmentally sound than bubble wrap, but offers more padding and protection for your records. It helps the vinyl fit more snug in the mailer, allowing NO ROOM for any shifting. Which in turn, helps prevent seam splits, bends and pushes. We reuse every box that comes through our doors and put them to good use. We personally cut 1” corner pieces from the recycled boxes to reinforce the corners on the outside of the record mailers. This is to assist in the protection of your vinyl in transit, as we know USPS isn’t widely known for handling so delicately at all times. We ship records that are in open and resealable poly sleeves outside of the jacket to prevent seam splits. If you purchase a sealed copy and would like us to open, and ship outside of the jacket, we will place it in an open poly sleeve upon request. Please read some of our positive feedbacks on packaging to confirm our methods accuracy. We find our customers happy with the care that is considered when wrapping their records, and they keep coming back for more!
SHIPPING
Our shipping is a flat rate $4.00/ media mail per 1 or 2xLP. Most 3LP and boxsets are calculated by weight and destination. Each additional purchased is $1. We ship in standard record mailers which are all marked “FRAGILE” and “DO NOT BEND”. If more than 2 LPs are purchased, we upgrade your package to a bigger box to accommodate the size and weight. If you wish to receive your vinyl in a more timely manner, please contact us to setup for priority. For Priority shipping, it is calculated by weight and destination, so prices vary. For international shipping, cost is calculated to destination and packages are wrapped the same way, and then double boxed. Depending on weight, under 4 pounds is sent USPS First Class/Priority International, over 4 pounds is USPS Priority International. If you ever have questions, please do not hesitate to ask. We will get back to you within the 24 hours. We pride on doing things right, and work hard for a 100% positive feedback. We will always try to remedy any issues that may rise.
