Mines matches this release and has a hype sticker on top right of sleeve that says.... Contains Their Hit Single "PLAYGROUND TWIST". -
Over the years I've only heard this on cassette and streaming. No surprise that the vinyl blows that out of the water, but holy shit, it's like hearing it for the first time all over again. If you love this album and have the means, pick yourself up a Polydor original. You won't be disappointed.

One of the most striking post-punk albums, it is pretty extreme, the sound is rich and there are plenty of overdubs on drums, like sounds of cannons on Icon. Joy Division must have studied the production here for Closer
