The Return Of Vibronics. Banksy artwork. MINT unplayed - Ltd Ed white dbl vinyl.

Please check photos.

Unfortunately in transit from supplier there is some small damage where the sleeve has torn. This could easily be repaired by glue or tape. I will leave this for the buyer.

Here we have a rare album, with accredited Banksy artwork on the outer sleeve.

Originally released in 2015 as a single vinyl, this was repressed in 2022 onto a double white vinyl, limited edition.

The album itself is a wonderful slice of UK roots, dub reggae, but it's all about the artwork for this.

Steve Vibronics, the artist, has described that the logo design for the band was done by 'Robin' in Leicester in the mid-090s; when Banksy (Robin) was known to be working almost exclusively within the music world. If you go to the 'recordart dot net' site, you'll be able to hear the podcast in full (also on MixCloud Positive Thursdays 633)

”… The logo, well the logo is an interesting story, because it’s made by a guy called Bansky, who’s an incredibly famous artist now. And he’s probably like the most famous kind of like street urban artist in Europe now. And he was a friend of my friend—and he was a great artist—this was years ago before he was famous, and he was a great artist then. And I said to my friend “Oh, do you think,” I knew him as Robin, that was his name then, “Do you think Robin would make me a logo ‘cos I’ve just started doing Vibronics”. And my friend said “Yeah, I’ll ask him, no problem.” 

So he made me this logo, painted this beautiful picture and I was completely amazed by it, really incredible, and I’ve used it ever since as a logo and then he became, years after that, this incredibly famous artist, so and now people are amazed that I’ve got this kind of Banksy logo which at the time, he was just a guy I knew in a kind of, you know, in a kind of hippy dub scene in Leicester
