Endless Roads - 2nd Press.

The second pressing of Miles Away - Endless Roads from Six Feet Under Records. I've been waiting for what seems a long time for these to come in but its in timely fashion with the show being tomorrow night.
With up to 3 to choose from, of course you have to get all 3.
White vinyl with regular labels /152
White vinyl with (faintly) stamped labels /162

Green splatter vinyl with stamped labels /148
9 copies of one record? Yep. Why? 'Cause it's awesome and I got to have 'em all.

Is this site just for Miles Away?

Seems like all I've been getting is Miles Away releases, not that I have a problem with that...far from the case, its just they keep repressing releases, doing different covers and I'm trying to stay on top of it plus the band is sick.
This is the second pressing of Miles Away - Rewind, Repeat on a silkscreen cover /250, grey vinyl. First pressing was clear.
Next up is the same pressing (grey) but with a limited edition silk screen cover with only 18 available to a first in first served type of deal. Cool story, after going out to a party and consuming nearly 1L of V because I like the taste, you naturally can't sleep, so at about midnight or there after I go on the net and see this pop up through the record label, and with them being in Europe, the timezone would work in my favour against all the other record crazy dudes here in Oz that may not be up at this time, so I shot them an email, and after 3 net disconnections and me silently going crazy thinking I wouldn't get one, I got one. So moral of the story, drink V and you will get great records.
Final result -

Are You In?

This band rocks. Always will.
This is their second best song they have written in my eyes, first being Drive of course. With these guys being one of my favourite bands I obviously want to have all their releases on vinyl and my collection is slowly building speed from these guys with this one, think it takes my tally up to 6. What makes this even better I got it for a quarter of the price I usually see it sold for which makes it that much more satisfying. Its a 3 track maxi single, one track being the song, a remix and a live version. Not too bad for $20 post paid from the U.S.
The most chilled out song you will ever listen to.

Dallas 2.0



Different pressing of Bring me your Love, its hard to pick which copy I like more but I'd have to go with this one. This version came with a demo cd of the tracks which is pretty cool and pink has never looked so good. Same packaging and layout as the previous version. Of /550.



Next is a limited edition EP done with a hip hop dude, Shad. All proceeds from this record went to a charity and the 2 songs sound amazingly good. Packaged in an old school dj sleeve makes it look real traditional, pretty happy with this one. Of /556.

Bearded Legend

City and Colour - Bring me your Love.

This package is one of the best I've got in recent times. Its awesome when there's extra effort put in with the design of the overall record and adds to what is already a great release. This gatefold red/white 180g press is from Dine Alone Records -picked up locally which is ever better.
Simple cover front and back but opens up to some pretty extras along with the vinyl of course.

Time to get ILL



Seen these blokes a while back and thought they were pretty good. Took me over a year to pick up their new 7" though. Playing 80's hardcore its a good listen. 6/50.
