  1. Peter Murphy release is cheaper from the Beggars site:

  2. HumanCobras

    Why doesn’t The Cure re-issue “Wish” on vinyl. Mixed up was already released and those best of and acoustic vinyl are so boring.

    • Georgio Cider

      Wish will probably be released once the remaster is released. Robert already finished the remaster so now it’s just a matter of waiting

  3. It’s not a physical release but the ohGr album was just released today as well!

  4. Also David Sylvian & Holger Czukay – Plight & Premonition and Flux & Mutability 2CD
