Description
This is an incredible edition of the third album by The Mars Volta, Frances the Mute. It includes 3 LPS, with one side of one of the discs an etching. Play tested and sounds incredible. Some very slight minor crackles on a few moments, but nothing that detracts from the enjoyability of the music.
VINYL: VG+ There are some surface marks/scuffs, but they do not affect play. Some of these may have been in the pressing, as this does happen with pressings since the millenium. Conservatively graded, sounds amazing.
COVER: Some ring wear, corner wear, but no splits and still looks great. All inner sleeves are there and in beautiful condition.
