Repression

Three fantastic record pre-orders are available at the moment. You’ve got the last release from the Ergs!, entitled That’s It…Bye on Don Giovanni. It’s a 12″ single featuring artwork from Mitch Clem. See below for how pretty it is:

Don Giovanni is also repressing the Ergs! Jersey’s Best Prancers. It’ll have a different color and labels from previous presses.

Speaking of represses… or, to be more accurate, a first pressing of an old record… um, waitaminnit. Let me clarify. The Suicide Machines never released any of their albums on vinyl (aside from the “Vans Song” 7″, but that’s a single, not an album). SideOne Dummy is putting out a double LP on red and blue vinyl featuring both A Match and Some Gasoline and War Profiteering is Killing Us All. It’s a steal at $17 plus shipping, and is available here for pre-order. They’re limited edition, which doesn’t seem to mean much, as all the other SideOne Dummy vinyl’s been the same way, and I still see their shit every time I go to a record store. Take note, though, as it won’t ship until December.

Somebody needs to give me $40 so I can buy all this shit. Or convince the labels to send them to me. Seriously – my journalistic ethics are pretty much nonexistent. I’ll sell myself out for limited edition records.

the Suicide Machines – “Burning In the Aftermath” (from A Match and Some Gasoline)
the Ergs! – “Kind of Like Smitten” (from Jersey’s Best Prancers)
