Recorded at the band’s show on May 6, 1983 in Austurbæjarbíó, Reykjavik, Iceland, the gig showcases some new material that would surface on Perverted By Language later the same year. It is an exemplary document of the band at that time, featuring the fabled line-up of Mark E. Smith / Steve Hanley / Paul Hanley / Karl Burns and Craig Scanlon.
This vinyl version is the first time this album has been released in this format and has been re-mastered by long term Fall engineer Andy Pearce. Austurbæjarbíó, Reykjavik Live 1983 is available exclusively on Record Store Day 2020 and pressed in limited quantity on orange and yellow splatter vinyl.
