This is a fine copy from an early U.K. repress (A2/B2 matrix #s) of the second LP by British group New Order, released like the first pressing in 1983.  The record mixes songs that recall in muted form the dark vibe of Joy Division and the group's early releases ("Your Silent Face," "Leave Me Alone," "We All Stand") with more upbeat tracks like "Age of Consent" and "The Village" that are more in line with the contemporaneous singles "Blue Monday" and "Confusion."  The die-cut jacket has creasing along the spine and seams, and light wear on the bottom seam -- EX(+).  The disc has a few fingerprints and hairline scrapes, and a modest amount of scuffing, but plays well with some light surface noise -- EX(+).  The record comes with a custom inner sleeve (EX+).

I’m in the process of selling off a large personal collection amassed over two decades. All discs have been stored in plastic lined inner sleeves separate from their sleeves. The sleeves have been stored in plastic sleeves. I have play graded (spot checked) discs except where otherwise noted.

If you'd like to order multiple items, I'll happily combine them so that you won't have to pay multiple shipping charges.
