Cirith Ungol!!! Michael Whelan Artwork!!! Elric of Melniboné (Michael Moorcock)!!!

This vinyl record collection includes all of Cirith Ungol’s albums, except for Servants of Chaos (2001 compilation album) and The Orange Album (1978 demo tape that was never released on vinyl). These albums are from my personal collection (I’m a fan, not a store).

These records are new and unopened. They were stored upright in an air conditioned and smoke/dust free environment (my office). The shrink wrapping is slightly split open on the opening sides of the jackets of King of the Dead, One Foot in Hell, Paradise Lost, and Half Past Human (see last picture), but otherwise all of the record jackets are in excellent condition (e.g., no apparent corner wear, etc.). If you’d like any additional details, just let me know.

Note: Some Discogs users have noted that Metal Blade Records might not have included the posters, correct lyrics sheets, or download cards in some of these releases, apparently by accident. Please see Discogs for more information. These albums are sold as is.

The album details, including Barcodes/UPCs, are provided below. Enjoy!
