i killed the prom queen - when goodbye means forever...

this beauty took forever in the pre-order process because it seems to be quite difficult to produce an eco-friendly record. anyway, now it's here and sound and looks fantatstic. what a strong debut this one was... "forever" variant out of 575 copies. originally released in 2003 through resist records. unfd records. 2022.

the devils of loudun - escaping eternity

another stellar tech death band on the artisan era records. they are not re-inventing the wheel but if you love the genre, you will dig what they have to offer. retail version on electric blue vinyl out of 200 copies. the artisan era. 2022.

the contortionist - exoplanet

finally i got my hands on a copy of the latest goodfight entertainment re-issues of "exoplanet". what a great album it is! bought this through amazon germany, which spared me the hassle of oversea shipping. done with my complete full length collection task. 1.000 copies made. 3rd pressing. good fight. 2010/2021.

converge with chelsea wolfe - bloodmoon: I

pretty neat project that conerge pulled off here. i had the clear blue/clear red retail version but couldn't pass up this new pressing. super lovely neon violet/light blue merge vinyl out of 1.000 copies. second press. epitaph records. deathwish inc. 2021/2023

unearth - darkness in the light

to me these u.s. boys can't do no wrong. all of their albums are pure metalcore fire. no different with "darkness in the light". very nice match of cover art and vinyl colour here. blue sparkle vinyl out of 500 copies. metal blade. 2011.

unearth - the march

fourth full length by this metalcore juggernaut. great album as always. vinyl presentation is nice as well. 1.000 copies made on this brown/grey marble vinyl. metal blade. 2008.

unearth - the stings of conscience

this stellar debut has been re-pressed recently by good fight entertainment. i have a first press copy from back in the day on white vinyl with a fold-out piece serving as a cover sleeve. 262 copies made. knife or death records under license of eulogy recordings. 2001.

inclination - unaltered perspective

the latest full length of this straight edge powerhouse. they don't disappoint, i tell ya! orange, white and black galaxy vinyl out of a shitload of 1.700 copies. looking good and all. pure noise records. 2022.
