Description

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.


MEGA RARE original Sire first pressing from 1988 with SRC (Specialty Records Corporation) logo stamped in the dead wax!!!  LP is a beautiful VG++ with a few barely visible paper scuffs.  Cover is VG with a bit of ring.  Without a doubt my favorite Ministry LP of all time.  This was the point where industrial collided with thrash metal and no one has done it better since.  From the disturbing Stigmata to the snarling aggression of Diety, this LP was unquestioningly the high water mark in the band's career in my not-so-humble opinion.


I USE GOLDMINE GRADING: MINT (SEALED)
NEAR MINT: LOOKS UNPLAYED VG++:  VERY VERY MINIMAL SIGNS OF USE
VG+:  AVERAGE SIGNS OF USE, NOTHING DEEP, SUPERFICIAL VG:  STILL AN OK RECORD, NOISE BETWEEN SONGS
GOOD: WORN BUT PLAYS FINE WITH DISTRACTING NOISE POOR:  FILLER COPY ONLY.  LOTS OF SCRATCHES
