Setlled

Along with the True Colors record from the last post, I picked up another rarity from Six Feet Under. This is the last copy of Adult Crash I was missing.

This is the Blue/White swirl transition out of 14. When I first took this out I thought I was ripped, it looks just like the blue version. I took the copy of blue and white both out and compared them to the transition. After a second look this defiantly looks like its more white than the blue version. It's pretty hard to tell but there is a lighter version to it, the transition is in the middle.


I think I picked up these two off of eBay. The grey is from the first press and the yellow with brown is from the second press, that's about all I can tell you. I've got all of the copies of these now.

In a recent order with Six Feet I decided to pick up a regular version of Mother of Mercy's LP. This is cream from the second press out of 100. I just pre-ordered the new LP from Bridge 9, man that label is pissing me off lately. Stupid packages to get the rarest vinyl, and they charged me like $16 for shipping. Seriously? Hopefully the new LP is as good as this one.

In a continuation of trying to have everything DTN, including compilations, I picked up two copies of the Past Present compilation. Not to mention it's a Rev compilation, it's hard to pass on them as silly as they may seem. Some good songs on this, some weird ones. DTN has a great Judge cover, they seem to be able to do them consistently well. Yellow is out of 335 and black out of 749.

Also part of my Six Feet Under order, and also a compilation, I got the American Hardcore Comp. I had been on the fence about getting this for a while. When pre-orders first went up I wanted to get them, but I decided financially and just out of how much I wanted it, I wasn't going to order them. Come a few months later when people were receiving them and posting them on the internet, it made me want one. This is the red/blue swirl, though you can't tell, it's pretty cool looking. Like everyone else has said, this came out really cool with the cover and the large booklet. This just was handled very well.

The main reason I made an order with Six Feet was I was getting in to Miles Away a little bit and Dave posted he was putting out the latest LP in the U.S. I took a look and found some cool looking rare colors, so I picked up the rarest. This is the Milky Grey Swirl out of 67.

This is another copy of Secrets of the World on clear. Pretty boring, from the first press out of 1,000, just one I had to pick up of course.

This is the Swamp Thing LP on maroon, pretty boring too, out of 500.

So as part of Black Friday several labels had sales, this begins that whole mess. I picked up this Cold World/Strength for a Reason split from Deathwish, on grey out of 300. Pretty basic, not the best split, but I of course needed to get it.

It's Been Awhile

So I went to this show almost two weeks ago. It was a good time and I picked up a record that I had planned on getting.

This is Backtrack's Deal with the Devil. Backtrack play a style of NYHC that I can get in to. Less hard and more roots hardcore. This band pulls off the aggressiveness of NYHC but still sounds like a band from the 80s.

With True Colors calling it quits there were tons of releases put out around the last show. This is the Consider it Done 7" put out in Europe by Control Records. The white is the mailorder version, and limited to 100. After all of the auctions that just happened on eBay to raise funds, I think Control will be having some cool things coming out.

I picked this up from Mike Riley at a Mindset/Praise/Rations show about a month ago. It's a copy of the Adult Crash with a stamp for A389's 5 year anniversary. Not really sure what the pressing is on this but I know when I was at Celebrated Summer in Towson, Tony was trying to get me to buy this.


So I got my pre-order in for Six Feet Under's release of the Consider It Done 7". I got all 4 colors and of course the bonus 7". The gatefold cover came out really well and this release is just awesome. The layout, insert/poster, vinyl colors the all are great.

I seem to have been getting my hands on a bunch of the copies of Double Vision from Powered. It's ironic because I didn't pre-order this record because at the time I couldn't afford this and the React! ones. It seems to have worked in my favor. This is the most common version that I picked up from the band.

Here we have just a great idea, Iron Man and AC/DC together on a double LP. This just seems like a perfect idea, and it came out really cool. Usually the bigger labels put out crap vinyl but this came out real well, heavy vinyl and awesome layout.



Here we have another True Colors 7". This is I Drink Milk's reissue of the original demo, but this time on vinyl instead of tape. This also came out really well, also a label on the rise.

This is the Floorpunch Discography. This came out kinda wierd. The vinyl colors just don't make sense really. The gatefold sleeve is awesome and the tri-fold insert is pretty good. It's got tons of writing from some people around for a while but it feels kinda long. It felt like reading a book instead of an album insert. I also got two copies on gold instead of all three colors. I'm driving up to Philly for the SFU showcase this Saturday, and I think Floorpunch is playing this entire release, should be nutz.

I picked up a few more records from Dave Brown, a very awesome dude. First is a copy of Adult Crash limited to four copies. This is the transition from the black to the light blue. Pretty awesome pick up I have to say.



Here is the record release version of Bracewar's s/t 7". Pretty awesome record and it came with a tarot card, cool touch.

This is the United Blood version of Adult Crash. Pretty straight forward. Now all I'm missing of this record is the other transition.
