Description
Rise Above Relics Deluxe edition of this legendary 1971 acid folk masterpiece. Cut from original masters.
Regular version is now only available in transparent purple with matte gatefold sleeve with original insert reproduction.
Diehard version includes deluxe outer slipcase plus bonus 10″ reproduction of the Diana EP, pressed in quality heavy black vinyl, which was originally released as a 7″ back in 1971. Also comes in picture sleeve.
A2 Colour poster featuring an early picture of the First Utterance line up.
Matte gatefold sleeve with original artwork and reproduction of the original insert.
This is a fully legitimate official licensed vinyl reissue of First Utterance, as opposed to the several bootlegs that have been on the market over the years.
Simply one of the all time great albums in the history of British underground music. At the time when First Utterance was originally released, Comus sounded like nobody else. Today, almost forty years on, they still don’t.
Listening to First Utterance is like entering a whole new strange and scary world. Once you immerse yourself in their dark folky surroundings it’s hard to even imagine wanting to escape. Quite possibly the heaviest record ever recorded with acoustic guitars.
