As with all the Massive Attack releases on The Vinyl Factory, this one is absolutely stunning - the most recent Massive Attack album, Heligoland, was given the Vinyl Factory treatment a few months after it was released, and on offer here is a brand new and sealed edition of this album. From the black glitter sleeve to the deluxe 28-page 12 inch booklet, this is probably the most beautiful Massive Attack artwork I've seen. As well as the album on vinyl, the album houses the album on glitter CD, too, and there's a bonus 12 inch 4-track remix vinyl featuring the stunning Gui Boratto remix of one of the album's highlights, Paradise Circus. Long since deleted and increasingly hard to find, this is a perfect sealed edition of this ultra-limited edition. Some of the sealed version of this album have gone for silly money on here, as with all the MA/VF collaborations, this has become very sought after. The image shown is of an opened copy of this album - the one you're bidding on is sealed in unbroken cellophane with 2 record company stickers on the front and back. If you require more photos or info, please message me.
