The Greatest Mistake Of My Life (2LP Green Vinyl)

We all make mistakes. We all have regrets. We all look back on the loves and losses life brings and lament on how things might have been different. In these deeply personal moments of reflection our emotions can run wild as we contemplate our choices and come to terms with what’s next. Hindsight is a powerful and complex thing, and a phenomenon whose intricacies are explored in captivating fashion on The Greatest Mistake Of My Life, the second album from Cardiff’s HOLDING ABSENCE.

The Greatest Mistake Of My Life soundtracks the journey of our lives via all of its despair, elation, joy and pain, but never once tells the listener how they should be feeling. The 2025 pressing of The Greatest Mistake Of My Life is a Green Ripple double LP with an etching on side D. Both LPs are housed in a Gatefold jacket that slides into a plastic slip sleeve with the band name and album titles printed on a rugged plastic sleeve.

Limited to 1,000 units worldwide.
