How to use the reserve function
If you'd like to purchase items from our site but want to save money on shipping costs, you can use our reserve function to combine your orders over an unlimited period of time, and ship them together for one combined shipping price when you are ready.
Just hit the 'reserve' button at the checkout page as your shipping option when you've finished making your order, and your order will automatically be held in reserve here until you are ready for us to ship everything to you.You can keep as many orders in reserve with us via our site as you like, until you are ready to ship. Just send us an email when you are ready to ship your reserve orders, and we will get in touch with the combined shipping price, or ship for free if you have exceeded the minimum order amount for free shipping to your address.
Can the reserve function be used to get free shipping? Yes - If your combined order total is more than £50 within the UK, over £150 within the EU, or over £225 worldwide, we'll ship your order to you via courier service, for free.
Here's a step by step guide to using it:
1. Click on the account icon to log into your account.
If you don't have an account, please click 'create account' to make one. If you had an account on the old RWDFWD site, please create a new one with the same email address used on the old site - this will ensure your previous orders are brought through to your new account.
2. Add records to your cart as normal.
3. When you're ready to check out, select 'ship'.
4. Then select 'Reserve items' on the shipping method list, then continue to payment.
5. Once payment is complete, your order will show in your account as 'unfulfilled'. We will have put all the products aside in reserve for you to combine with other orders and ship later in bulk.
6. When you're ready to ship all the items you have in reserve, email us on info@rwdfwd.com and we will calculate the shipping due and arrange for payment to be taken.
7. Sit tight and wait for your records to arrive in the post!

EU Order info
Unfortunately, the UK is no longer part of the EU - This means that certain shipments sent to addresses there from us may be subject to tax and / or import duty - All orders sent from RWDWD are sent ‘DDU’ - That is, duty unpaid - any import tax and/or duty is the sole responsibility of the buyer.
If you would like to use our reserve function to group several orders into one large shipment, we can arrange for it to be sent tax and duty pre-paid so you don’t have to worry about it at a later date - Contact us for more information.
But it's an LP.......and it's real....human real and boyo boyo boy you are going to fucking love this....brought back into the cold light of Y2K as a curveball boomerang 6th release on Purely Physical Teeny Tapes (who minted that amazingly dubby Rwdfwd favourite 7" from M. Quake as well as a few Laila Sakini releases). Exorcised from it's 1986 small-batch ferric obscurity for a 200 run of LPs we are oh-so-lucky to be in possession of.
In summary: impossible to summarise, painfully diversive blur of a long player veering dangerously from Cybotron synthclub to Flying Nun Records / This Kind of Punishment lusherly dream pop to claustrophobic, Reducer/SPK-stylee newsreader / tele-preacher indiustrial plundery completely squalled over by sax to the demented No Trend yelling at the ghost of Richard H Kirk from a Brisbane bus stop. Phew. RIP all the batteries chewed through by the sampler (these were pre-computer days of course, and everything was up for grabs).
We could spend ages trying to pin references on each track and come up with a list as long as our face (we do it for you, the buyers).
But what's stunning is, it's all the same band, the same album and all you need to know is....there was something in the air
And now it's been sucked out the air and onto this here slab of black wax. Long live He Dark Age, wherever they are.
WHO WERE THESE GUYS AND WHY WERE WE SO IGNORANT

It's the most glorious post-punk post-industrial mess you need under your Christmas tree.
