Once More ‘Round The Sun

New LP due out on the 26th, just listened tonight, I really like it so far.

2XLP:

2XLP Deluxe edition:

CD with "prehistoric chopper" mirror:

Been listening for a month now, very happy with this album. Solid through and through.

Live At Brixton 2XLP

My opinion is I prefer this to The Aragon LP. I have 3 copies, #0978/2000, a test press /5 and sealed # 0001/2000! Here it is, Live at Brixton.

Represses, new Live LP and upcoming album!!

Relapse has pounded out a bunch of represses lately, Call Of The Mastodon (2nd and 3rd press) and Leviathan (7th and 8th presses!). Crack the Skye has another press and I would expect to see Remission done in the near future as well. (it is... a deluxe box) New Live 2 X LP "Live at Brixton was released for record store day 2014, limited to 2000 (for US and 2000 for Europe)... the only physical version they say will be released, comes with DVD of the performance. Coming out is "Once More Round The Sun" to be released in June.

Updated Wants List

Here are items I am still/currently looking for, highlighted are "priority" so to speak:

Box set clear
Australian Black Tongue promo cd (possibly pending)


TEST PRESSES:
Blood Mountain 2XLP
Crack The Skye standard version
Leviathan - picture disc version (IF IT EXISTS)
The Hunter (standard and 2XLP)
American Heritage split 7" Picture Disc
Reptilian 7" Picture Disc
Capillarian Crest 7"
Live At The Aragon

Flaming Lips split 7"

Once More 'Round The Sun


Also looking for the Romano Leviathan 22 X 22 giclee, and even more so, the 40 X 40 /100 version of the same.

There are others I am missing to make the collection "complete", just that is what I am looking for right now...

The Hunter

Reprise/Warner. There is a standard version, and a deluxe 180 gram version and a red 120 grammer...here they are. I have a standard copy signed by the whole band

Glad they finally did a color, and the red suits the cover well.

Finally got a test press, and it is fully signed :)

How to tell the difference between first and second press Blood Mountain LP's

I see it all the time, people selling a white Blood Mountain LP on ebay...they check the pressing info somewhere (Discogs or Dead Format...whatever) and see that there are 1900 white first press, and 500 white second press. Not knowing what they have, the seem to always pick first press....hoping for more money I guess. The only way to actually tell the difference at a glance is on the front cover. The top left corner to me is a dead giveaway. Look at the picture, the one in the front, gold top corner, second press. The one in behind (with the signature on it), white top corner, first press...easy peasy.
