For more check out all the official Julian Cope merchandise & vinyl available for home delivery with Vinyl Records London, only £24 +P&P Originally issued in 1984, World Shut Your Mouth saw the mercurial leader of The Teardrop Explodes establish himself as a fullyfledged solo artist Never repressed in its original format, this reissue faithfully replicates the original 1984 Mercury Records UK release and is pressed onto high quality 180g vinyl When The Teardrop Explodes finally ground to a halt in late 1982, all eyes were on what leader Julian Cope would do next. After retreating to the village of Drayton Bassett in Staffordshire for an extended period, Cope began writing World Shut Your Mouth, his first solo album. Released in March 1984, it is the closest to his old band of all his solo work Metranil Vavin and Pussyface were both originally intended for the Teardrops, World Shut Your Mouth featured Gary Dwyer on drums, and giving the album its most distinctive sound, Kate St. John on oboe. Beautifully pastoral, it is full of highlights such as Strasbourg, Kolly Kibber’s Birthday and the wistful, reflective Head Hang Low. The strange, stringled, schizophrenic, Sunshine Playroom was the album’s first single, followed up by 039radio hit039 Greatness And Perfection. World Shut Your Mouth is a deeply satisfying album, worthy of reappraisal.
Heavyweight Vinyl
Heavyweight vinyl is pressed on thicker, denser material—typically weighing 180 grams or more. This added weight offers improved durability, reduced warping, and is often believed to provide better sound quality due to more stable playback. Many audiophile releases, reissues, and deluxe editions are pressed on heavyweight vinyl, making it a popular choice among collectors and music enthusiasts who value both performance and longevity. While it doesn’t automatically guarantee superior audio, its solid, premium feel and association with high-quality production standards have made it a trusted format for serious vinyl fans.
