The Only Ones – Even Serpents Vinyl LP

A year after their acclaimed self‑titled debut, The Only Ones returned with Even Serpents Shine, an album often praised for its consistency, melodic depth, and cohesive atmosphere. Originally released in 1979, the record showcases the band’s blend of wiry guitars, poetic lyricism, and post‑punk edge. This 2026 Music On Vinyl reissue presents the album on a high‑quality 12" pressing, offering a clean, modern master that highlights the group’s distinctive sound. While it may not contain a breakout hit on the scale of “Another Girl, Another Planet,” many fans regard it as the band’s most unified and artistically complete work.
