PLEASE NOTE: I WILL ONLY GRADE AN OPENED LP NEAR MINT (NM) IF I CAN GUARANTEE IT HAS NEVER BEEN PLAYED (i.e. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER).  OTHERWISE, NEAR MINT MINUS (NM-) IS THE ABSOLUTE HIGHEST GRADE I WILL ASSIGN AN OPENED LP.


WILDLY RARE original first pressing of this instant stoner classic on Southern Lord from 2008 with circular hype sticker in the top right hand corner on the front cover and glossy rigid printed inner sleeves!!!  I must have picked this up at one of their shows.  I kept and still keep very good track of where most of my LPs were purchased and this one has no receipts, price tags, info labels or anything and Boris played Chicago often in the 2000s so I saw them on several occasions at The Empty Bottle.  LPs have never been played and are a stunning near mint.  Cover is still in the original shrink wrap.  I filed this away in my private collection 15 years ago(!) until today when I took these pics.  Sealed is the only way you will find a nicer copy.  You will not be disappointed.  If you've never heard this LP go directly to Youtube and find lead track Statement.  You'll be glad you did.
