The record
Unoff. release.
Year/Genre: 2004, Post-Punk
Matrix #: FIRE067
Condition: Mint
Description:
Released in 2004, Three Imaginary Boys Demos compiles early recordings from The Cure’s 1979 debut period, capturing the band before their ascent as post-punk icons. These demos reflect the stripped-down aesthetic of late-’70s British youth culture, when minimal resources and urgency shaped a new sound emerging from Crawley, far from London’s main scene. Robert Smith’s early vocal takes and skeletal guitar lines illustrate the transitional moment when punk’s energy was mutating into something darker and more introspective, laying the groundwork for the group’s influence on goth and alternative movements.
Condition: New, repackaged at Power Plant

This place is a little tucked away but easy to find. Though it’s not a big shop, it has a great selection of records at great prices! The guy who helped me out at the counter was friendly and really helpful! If I were in the area again, I would definitely go back.

Power plant records is the best! Great selection of vinyl, the owner and staff are super cool and one of the best things about them are the local shows they put on at Stuft Pizza to support local punk bands like Repeater and Simulator (aka Current Location).
