Carcass reek of putrefaction 1st press LP

First press on the earache label

 

 

Addition info: This is one of the very early first press copies which can be identified by matrix numbers above. Also has mush 006 on the labels and a front cover lacking any text / title which are again indicates this being a super early original. Not to be confused with any of the numerous and more common reissues

 

 

Please ask if you require any further info such as catalogue number, year, extra pressing details etc.

Grading:

 I will be grading critically to avoid disappointment. (see grading scale below) In my experience there is no such thing as a used record that has no marking at all, if you choose to look closely enough!  Hence nothing will be described as mint.

Grading Scale:

 

Vinyl

5 = Absolute minimal amount of ultra light, totally superficial surface hairlines / marks that are only visible when tilted under strong light. Expect no impact on audio. 4 =   Light surface marks / scratches. Some more visible but all still superficial. May include 1 small slightly heavier mark affecting a single track only. Still expect no or minimal impact on audio. 3 = Some heavier marks / scratches. Expect them to be audible and slightly detract from the overall listening experience. 2 = Heavy scratches / marks. Expect to hear pronounced and distracting clicks or cracks on at least couple of tracks. 1 = Several heavy scratched / marks / other damage. Expect several tracks to be affected and a couple to the extent that they may be considered unlistenable. However should still play through.

5 = Hardly any wear of any description. Maybe slightest of wear to very tip of a corner or a couple of ultra  light tiny edge creases which you would have to look very closely to see. 4 = Some general light wear and maybe a small area of moderate wear.
