The Serpent's Egg (Vinyl LP)

Dead Can Dance's fourth album, The Serpent's Egg (1988), came during a prolific period for the band, being released just four years after their debut. It was also the first they made at their own studio which, according to Brendan Perry, allowed them to continue to grow in "their own self-proclaimed direction". A minimal yet rather grandiose record which includes fan favourites The Host Of Seraphim and Ullyses, The Serpent's Egg is a triumph and perhaps the finest example of where Brendan and Lisa's diametrically different influences are overcome to form a new, almost synaesthetic whole.

Our Grading Standards
We grade all vinyl using the Goldmine standard:
Mint (M): Perfect, unplayed condition.
Near Mint (NM): Nearly perfect with minimal signs of handling.
Very Good Plus (VG+): Shows light signs of play but plays with minimal surface noise. The most common grade for collectable vinyl.
Very Good (VG): Noticeable marks and some surface noise, but still an enjoyable listen.
Good (G): Heavy wear — for collectors only.

All records are graded visually and by play. Media and sleeve are graded separately.
