Coastal (The Field Mice album)

This is a best-of collection featuring a selection of Field Mice singles, EP and album tracks from 1988 to 1991. The minimalist cover, as with other Field Mice releases such as "Snowball" and "So Said Kay EP", is an intentional nod to Factory Records' designs for the likes of New Order (to which this album's design owes a significant debt to the latter's singles compilation "Substance"). Bobby Wratten of the band has always expressed his admiration of New Order and Factory Records' often minimalistic sleeve design concepts.

gollark: I mean, they infect more people, which is... not good.
gollark: The UK seems to plan to reopen them, because of people somehow insisting that it would be horribly immoral for people to not do school for a while?
gollark: My school still hasn't really explained what they plan to do to reopen safely, and the term starts in about 2.5 weeks.
gollark: I mean, in lots of cases big companies actually *don't* have enough money to, say, cover several months of zero revenue.
gollark: Expensive yes, but "damaging for space"? Who cares? Besides, there are ridiculous amounts of asteroids.
