Holly Humberstone returns with her highly anticipated 2nd album, Cruel World, pressed to blue liquid-filled LP via Bad World. One of the defining voices of her generation, Holly delivers a record that lives in the tension between pain and pleasure, where chaos and acceptance sit side by side. Renowned for her forensic songwriting — earning an Ivor Novello nomination for her debut EP and winning the BRIT Rising Star in 2022 — Holly has evolved into a global force whose lucid, emotionally piercing storytelling resonates far beyond her own walls. On Cruel World, she escapes into a dark fairytale of her own making, where childhood relics, monsters and memory collide, resulting in her most immersive, introspective and compelling body of work to date.

I have 3 for sale which is why they are numbered in the pictures. They are all brand new and have never been played but 2 of them are open and 1 is still sealed. I took pictures of the front, back, and all of the corners of the albums so you can see the condition of them for yourself and so you can choose the one you want. I only showed the pics of the poster full unfolded in #1 because they are all the same and I didn’t have enough room for all the pictures to add them to each but you will get all of that same stuff no matter which one you pick. They are all in pretty similar condition so it shouldn’t matter too much but if you have a preference and you purchase first, let me know which one you want #1, #2 or #3 in a message or in your offer. #3 is the one that is sealed and that is the biggest difference between the 3 of them. It also has a hole in the plastic on one corner and that is also pictured. Then the last picture of each album is it in another plastic sleeve. I did that because the first 2 are open and so I wanted to keep the edges that are open extra safe and with #3 I wanted to protect the corner that is slightly open. So let me know which one you want! If you don’t have a preference or you want me to pick the best one for you I would be happy to do that too just let me know what you want! If you don’t tell me in time though I will have to pick one for you. So let me know if you do. Watch your eBay messages.

Let me know if you have any questions. I’m a collector myself so I package all of the albums very carefully for shipping and treat them as if they are my own! Also, I’m not someone who is going to keep lowering and lowering the price, so if you’re interested just make me an offer! I am very open to reasonable offers so message me! Thanks!

Also, as someone who ships a lot of albums, I know that the safest way to ship them is to remove the vinyl from the outer sleeve and ship it separately as to not create any wear. I wrap everything in bubble wrap so everything is very protected even though it’s open. So with the 2 that are already open, that is how I will ship them and for the 1 that is sealed, if you would like me to carefully slit open the side, slip out the vinyl, and ship it with the vinyl outside of the sleeve in order to prevent any wear, let me know and I will be happy to do that. If it’s more important to you to keep the vinyl sealed, then that is great too. Just let me know your preference and I’m happy to do whatever is best for you!
