Japanese vinyl pressings are highly sought after by audiophiles and collectors, due to their premium sound quality and beautifully presented packaging. The sonic quality of Japanese records is regarded as the best in the world. No wonder all the original Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab records were pressed in Japan! The covers are printed on better quality heavy stock paper too. Near Mint condition Japanese pressings are becoming scarcer — and therefore more collectable and valuable every year.

Geoff –
Easily one of the greatest "Punk" albums! This LP and Sex Pistols ‘Never Mind the Bollocks’ are easily my two favourite “Punk” albums. The Stranglers had a brilliant songwriter (Hugh Cornwell), a keyboard player with stacks, including Hammond & Minimoog (Dave Greenfield), cool drummer (Jet Black) and mean bassist (J.J. Burnel). 'IV: Rattus Norvegicus' is packed full with infectious rock numbers, and the last track, "Down in the Sewer" stretches out to 7 ½ minutes into four separate sections! (don't know how they managed to get away with that one at the time). Best tracks are “(Get a) Grip (on Yourself)”, “Sometimes” and the awesome “Peaches”. I could play this record until the cows come home (and Johnny Rotten advertises butter).
