if you are a customer outside the uk or europe it is very expensive
to send as it's so bloody heavy. sorry about that. usa customers
would do better buying from mail order in the usa.

note: the extra limited version with a bonus live acetate12" (25
copies in total) was pre-ordered ages ago and we don't have any for
sale (unless someone changes their mind). however, if you're
desperate we could burn a cdr of the music contained.
