Vinyl Records London are on cloud nine, we are now spinning in a brand new copy in LP Vinyl from Mansun One of the most audaciously brilliant albums of the 90s remastered for its 21st anniversary. Includes the hit singles “Six”, “Being A Girl”, “Legacy” and Negative.”A twisting maze of prog, glam and early’80s guitar pop… Noone has done northern angst on LSD quite like this” NMEMansun have announced details of a superdeluxe reissue of their hugely ambitious second album, SIX. The album will be issued as a Deluxe Edition 4Disc Book, Green Double Heavyweight Vinyl LP Limited Edition, CD Media Book and Double Black Vinyl.Released little over a year after their No. 1 debut album, Mansuns SIX was nothing less than a revelation. Arriving at the tail end of the Britpop era, SIX was a hugely ambitious spiralling, sprawling record that charted in the Top 10 on release and spawned four Top 40 singles.Concept driven and spanning myriad genres, SIX was a record out of time made by a band at the peak of their creative powers a collection of songs that fizzed with ideas and inspirations and fused elements of pop, electronica and progressive rock to Tchaikovsky s&le, electronic drums and spooky synth lines. Lyrically, the songs referenced religious scepticism, Winnie the Pooh, L. Ron Hubbard, Stanley Kubrick, Orwell, Marxism and that most iconic TV show, the Prisoner. On top of all of that, the record featured a spoken word section from the legendary fourth Doctor Who Tom Baker. The end result is a 70 minute, twelvetrack brain warp, a record that would set Mansun apart from their peers forever.One of the most iconic and innovative British bands of the late 90s, Mansun signed to the legendary record label Parlophone home to The Beatles, Radiohead and Sigur Ros in 1996. They released three albums Attack of the Grey Lantern 1997 Lantern 1997, SIX 1998 and Little Kix 2000 and one posthumous compilation, Kleptomania.

Autofiction LP by Suede
Vinyl Records London are on cloud nine, we are now spinning in a brand new copy in LP Vinyl from Suede Black Heavyweight Vinyl LP in Gatefold Sleeve.Suede return with their ninth studio album Autofiction, set for release on 16th September 2022 via BMG. As Suede began work on the songs that would become Autofiction, they decided to go back to basics. In a move that recalled their most formative days, Brett Anderson, Mat Osman, Simon Gilbert, Richard Oakes and Neil Codling schlepped to a rehearsal studio in deserted Kings Cross to collect a key, hump their own gear, set up and start playing.Speaking about Autofiction, Brett Anderson said Autofiction is our punk record. No whistles and bells. Just the five of us in a room with all the glitches and fuckups revealed the band themselves exposed in all their primal mess.First single ‘She Still Leads Me On’ is the track that reconfigured what the album could be. A beautiful song written from Brett to his late mother. As its title suggests, Autofiction is one of Anderson’s most personal records yet. Reflecting on the process of writing acclaimed works of memoir Coal Black Mornings and Afternoons With The Blinds Drawn helped Brett get a newfound perspective on himself as a performer and singer in the public eye, much of which has bled into the lyricism of Autofiction.Includes instant grat downloads of She Still Leads Me On and 15 Again upon purchase completion.
