FAQ

What is "Fpmip"?
The title is "Pimpf" spelled backwards. It is a version of the instrumental "Pimpf" from "Music For The Masses", here with a sung intro.

Is this the original pressing?
Yes. This is the 1987 German edition on orange transparent vinyl. The same catalogue number was also issued in 1987 on black and blue marbled vinyl, followed by later black represses.

What does Media VG+ / Cover VG mean?
Media VG+: the record shows light signs of use that barely affect playback. Cover VG: the sleeve shows clear shelf wear and has a hype sticker but is complete and intact. All grades are explained on our Vinyl Grading page.

Do you have more Depeche Mode records?
Yes, for example Depeche Mode – Strangelove 12" (Orange Transparent), Depeche Mode – Never Let Me Down Again (Split Mix) 12" and Depeche Mode – Music For The Masses (Blue Transparent LP). More titles are in our Synth-Pop collection.
