Description

A highly sought after BOC item; released in 1998 and limited to only 500 copies and never repressed. Aquarius was released on the seminal Music Has the Right to Children album which put BOC on the map. The B-side, Chinook was featured as a different, shorter version on an unreleased tape years earlier, but this longer version has only ever surfaced on this single. At over seven minutes long it is perhaps one of BOC's most brutal, beat driven tracks. Fiercely dark synths and a slew of industrial hip hop samples seemingly orchestrated with, and cleverly manipulated by, tape machines and delays. 
I'm starting the bid at significantly less than I paid for this, not expecting to get anywhere near that amount now. The condition of the vinyl and the insert is excellent. The sleeve is in less great condition, as you can see from the pictures. However, I don't think it's in all that bad condition either. 
I have other BOC vinyl for sale, so please check my listings.
