Up for auction is my copy of Destroyer's wonderful "Kaputt" LP on Merge Records. This is an original pressing from 2011. I am the only owner and I only played it a few times. 
Both the vinyl and the sleeve are in EXCELLENT (EX) condition; there is no damage to report. If you would like more photos or have questions, reach out!
"Kaputt received widespread acclaim from music critics upon its release. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album received an average score of 84, based on 38 reviews, which indicates "universal acclaim". In a five-star review of the album for The Guardian, Alexis Petridis was complimentary of the album's stylistic similarities and lyrical allusions to 1980s popular culture, writing that Kaputt "swerves accusations of archness or kitsch" because of the strength of its songs. Petridis further stated that the album "feels like an open love letter to a vanished pop era: it's unique and warm and beautiful, as love letters are supposed to be." Laura Snapes of NME called it Daniel Bejar's "finest work to date, and excessive, but irresistibly so." - Wikipedia

**I will ship the item wrapped in bubble wrap in a cardboard LP mailer. Unless you specifically contact me to request otherwise, I will ship with the disc outside of the main jacket to protect the seams from damage in transit. I do not currently have access to a turntable, so I must visually grade my records. If you have any questions or would like to see more photos, reach out.
