The Cure - Faith

Australian First Pressing #MLF443

"Faith," the captivating third studio album by the legendary English rock band, The Cure! Originally released on April 17, 1981, by Fiction Records, "Faith" showcases the band's signature gloomy yet mesmerising sound, following in the footsteps of their acclaimed album "Seventeen Seconds" (1980).

This album marks a pivotal moment in The Cure's musical journey, setting the stage for their next groundbreaking release, "Pornography" (1982). Featuring the hit single "Primary," "Faith" garnered rave reviews from critics and enjoyed commercial success in the UK, reaching number fourteen on the UK Albums Chart and remaining on the chart for an impressive eight weeks.

Media: VG Record plays right through with no repeats, marks are evident as shown in the photos however these pose no issue with only slight crackle in between tracks and in quiet passages. There is a slight warp in the record but this doesn’t pose any issue to the sound.

Cover: VG Obvious signs of storage wear with distinct ring and scuff marks on the back cover small creases as shown, due to the monochrome colour of the cover the marks are more obvious.

Info: First pressing for Australia.
