The third 12″ vinyl record by the Plasmatics. This one released in 1981, the same year as Metal Priestess. This is a good record that supplies you with more of your Plasmatics Metal/Punk melding and mind melting Plasmatics craziness. I graded this one on the conservative side for the cover. It would have been graded as EX condition except for a modest amount of scuffing on the two lower corners and a price sticker damage. Otherwise this cover is in great shape with plenty of gloss. The vinyl has been graded conservatively as well, closer to a NM than the EX condition listed. The inlay/ inner sleeve is in EX to NM conditon.
Visually, the record features stunning, custom center paper labels boasting an artistic, Henri Matisse-inspired cutout pattern designed by legendary Stiff Records graphic designer Barney Bubbles. The album is housed in its absolute earliest-variant, single-pocket outer jacket, which features Bubbles’ abstract waterfront artwork on the front and a stark, intimate black-and-white portrait of Dekker by photographer Graham Hughes on the reverse.
