hypocrisy - osculum obscenum (tape)

of course floga records wouldn't just drop one classic hypocrisy album on tape. nuclear blast had four more to offer but i went with only one other. to me it made sense to start with the early albums. so after i bagged the debut "penetralia", the sophomore album from 1993 seemed like the most obvious choice. i had to decide between two shell colour-ways, transparent green and transparent red.
i went with the green shell and think it looks very neat with the detailed print on the shell and all. just as much care went into the j-card. a multi-panel card with some band pics on one side and cool live pics on the flip side, all made of sturdy and textured card. the sound quality is awesome too. musically this old school death metal with an american tinge to it. i like this album a bit more than the debut. 250 copies made. floga records. 2018.
