      A big positive surprise, I had expected this to be some "Flower of Romance" post-punk racket. But the band have really worked on the songs, and are good players, the crooning vocals adds atmosphere. Like a breath of fresh air even all these years later.

        I've got a 2011-ish grey-area? re-issue LPs that's pale pink, doesn't seem to be listed here.
        great album, though, underrated/overlooked

          I see news that Record Store Day 2020 (April 18) will include Boys Next Door: Door, Door (red vinyl), hopefully there will be enough pressed for the fans to get one without paying an upcharge.
