Trapped Under Ice: Secrets of the World 2nd Press

When I purchased the Terror record from Reaper, I picked this up. I have been waiting to get it for a while and the 2nd press is so much better looking than the first and they had it in stock at Reaper.

This is printed on a matte, gatefold cover with great artwork.

The vinyl is transparent with black splatter and it matches the cover well, much better than the 1st press.

Terror: Keepers of the Faith 1st Press/Blue

The new Terror record on Reaper records. This is the first press on limited blue vinyl.

I got this straight from Reaper to fill out my Terror collection. Its a good record overall and I think that Terror succeeded in creating a new branch of hardcore.

They have always remained consistent and its great to see that they are still pushing the bar.






That makes it 4 out of 5 12" from Terror, just missing The Damned, The Shamed.

Metallica: Master of Puppets Audiophile edition

Finally! When I was putting together a blog post for the Metallica records, I somehow missed this one. I had just assumed that I had a copy of Master of Puppets, but apparently not.

This is a great copy as its on 2 12" and is cut at 45rpm. It sounds a bit better than the original version. The only thing is that there are only 2 songs per side, so its a bit cumbersome to listen to!



This.... now, actually rounds out the collection!!

Bane: The Note -- Pink and Black Swirl

This was one of the first Straight Edge records that I ever really got into. At least of this generation. It taught me a lot about that scene and it just felt like a necessity to pick up. I am not sure how much I will really listen to it, but its a great record for what it is.

This copy, is really interesting looking. It is something of a dark pink mixed into the black. Each side has a distinctly different pattern.

Lovely presentation in my opinion.

Witch: Self Titled

I had heard a lot about these guys but could not remember what they sounded like.

They are on Tee Pee records, which puts out a lot of great music.

It was cheap and then another 22% off because of the Easy Street Anniversary sale.

Coliseum: Self Titled

From Singles..

I searched through the whole store and in the last little batch I found this and the repress of No Salvation, which I had already bought.

This is a great album and the printing is really interesting. I like how random the pattern is and I think that it matches with the copy of No Salvation!

Coliseum: No Salvation

This is one of those records that I sat on for some reason when it was repressed.

I was about to buy it 3 or 4 times and something came up. Then.. finally, I got around to it and it was sold out!

So, instead of getting the repress, I was able to score a first press on grey-splatter for around the same price.

Thanks Carmen!!
