Magazine "Rays and Hail" 2xLP

Colored vinyl! Enduringly credible, Magazine have always been the music connoisseur's choice.  Created by frontman, Howard Devoto - who co-formed Buzzcocks with Pete Shelley - Magazine's sound focused on the double barrels of Dave Formula's swirling keyboards and John McGeoch's ahead-of-it's-time innovative guitar work, underpinned by Barry Adamson's pulsing yet deviously irregular basslines. Atop of this sat Howard Devoto's lyrics. Leading the vanguard of post-punk, their released four groundbreaking albums before disbanding. 1987's compilation, Rays & Hails, is repressed for the first time on colored vinyl, has a new configuration and sequence from previous iterations, and features unseen images and new notes from band members compiled and curated by Rory Sullivan-Burke.
