this album came out in the mid 00's. a time where i breathed in all that was out on labels like lifeforce records or trustkill. on the latter this baby appeared. i can't recall how i got aware of first blood from california. i suppose it was a myspace discovery, as usual back then. the album is pretty breakdown-laden, something that totally appealed to me at the time.
furthermore the political induced lyrics were another reason why this album was on heavy rotation on my discman. i always wanted to have a vinyl copy since i started collecting but somehow, a reasonable priced copy never came my way. until now, that is. bullet tooth records, the now renamed trustkill records, thought it might be apt to bring up a re-press of this almost classic title.
when i read news of this over at per koro, i knew i would include this in a sure coming order. the new pressing comes on heavy duty vinyl and in a clear red colour-way. don't know how many were made or if this clear red is the only colour-way of the re-press. anyone here has a clue? in the meantime, check out 'conspiracy' and 'tides' and break some furniture. trustkill records. 2006/2015.
