Description
A beautiful little run of three White Lies coloured 7" singles, all in near-mint, barely played condition. Perfect for anyone building a complete White Lies collection or wanting some eye-catching modern indie singles for the turntable.
You’re getting:
• “Strangers” – translucent deep plum 7"
• “Holy Ghost” – opaque teal 7"
• “Bigger Than Us” – baby-blue 7"
All three come in their original glossy picture sleeves with matching colour themes, so they look fantastic laid out together – very “display-able” set, not just random singles thrown in a job lot.

Individual Disc Details
1) White Lies – Strangers (7" single – deep plum vinyl)
• A-side: Strangers (Album Version)
• B-side: Strangers (Holy Other Remix)
• Vinyl: Gorgeous translucent plum/burgundy pressing – looks almost black off the shelf but glows purple when held to light. Surfaces are clean and glossy with only the faintest paper scuffs from the inner – visually EX+ / Near Mint.
• Sleeve: Rich purple artwork with the matchbook / pill strip design. Front and back are clean with just tiny corner rubs from storage – no writing, splits or big creases. EX condition.
Collector angle: The Holy Other remix wasn’t massively pressed and is basically locked to this format. Anyone who’s into White Lies’ more atmospheric material or early-2010s indie remixes will want this specific 7" for the B-side alone.
⸻
2) White Lies – Holy Ghost (7" single – teal vinyl)
• A-side: Holy Ghost (Single Mix)
• B-side: Holy Ghost (The Bookhouse Boys Remix)
• Vinyl: Solid teal/sea-green disc. Again, surfaces are bright and glossy – no feelable marks, just light hairlines under strong light. Easily EX+ / Near Mint.
• Sleeve: Turquoise cover with the Virgin Mary statue and folded dollar bill artwork. Very light edge wear and a small old price sticker on the front (you can peel it carefully if you want, but it’s honest record-shop history). No seam splits. Strong EX.
Collector angle: One of the nicest-looking pressings of the Ritual era – the teal vinyl against the teal sleeve looks great. The Bookhouse Boys remix isn’t widely reissued, so this is the easy physical way to own it.
⸻
3) White Lies – Bigger Than Us (7" single – blue vinyl)
• A-side: Bigger Than Us (Album Version)
• B-side: Bigger Than Us (Datasette Remix)
• Vinyl: Eye-catching opaque sky-blue 7". Super clean, high gloss, no obvious marks – Near Mint visually.
• Sleeve: Light-blue artwork with the prescription bottle and crystal design. Only very light shelf wear and a small old shop sticker – again, no splits or writing. EX.
Collector angle: Bigger Than Us is one of the key singles in their catalogue; this blue 7" is the collectible way to own it. The Datasette remix appeals both to fans of the band and to collectors of early-2010s electronic/indie crossovers.

Overall Condition Summary
• Vinyl (all three): EX+ to Near Mint – play wear will be minimal to none.
• Sleeves: Mostly EX, with light edge rubs and a couple of old price stickers (see photos). No seam splits, no writing, no major creasing.
These are realistically “file copies” – bought, maybe played once or twice, then stored carefully.

Why a Collector Would Buy This Bundle
• Matching set: Same era, same label, all in striking colours – they look like they belong together.
• Coloured pressings: More desirable than standard black; ideal for framing or front-row in a 7" crate.
• Non-album remixes: Each single carries a remix that’s not on the core albums – that’s exactly the kind of thing White Lies completists chase.
• Condition: Finding one nice copy is easy; finding three from the same era in this condition is a bit rarer.
• Good entry-point lot: For newer fans, this is a quick way to grab several key tracks in collectible format without hunting them one by one.
