Rare original edition on Rather Records / Rough Trade of the wacky classic avant-garde punk debut album.

condition (record/cover): VG+ / VG+ (tags on front and back and edges wear)

With original innersleeve. No 7" included.

Infinitely more aware than the average albums of the genre, "A Trip To Marineville" embodies the hidden lucidity behind the teenage English desire to smash the world at the end of the seventies, it is proof that those losers knew very well what it was they were trying to destroy. Far from being naive, the Swell Maps create the most avant-garde punk work, crooked and insane, sunken in the most cacophonous noise, crossed by continuous sound diversions that do not allow its center of gravity to settle.
