Baroness - First & Second LP

So many records have come in in the last couple of weeks, but as I said in my last post, I haven't much felt like writing too much.





Here is a record that had long been talked about, but there had been no sign of it for fucking ages. Then old mate from hyperealist starting posting about it on the vinylcollective message board and this motherfucker here started to get just a little bit excited!



Now, I have both the original pressings of these records, but I have to say that it is nice to have them both on one LP. I was also pumped for the updated artwork for the gatefold release. The new artwork has made good use of the original art, but made it look like a good single package. I love to foil printing on both sides of the sleeve, I'm always a sucker for that shit. I bought all 3 colours, but I have decided to just keep the black copy, as I have black copies of first and second. Kind of a nerd like that sometimes.





The songs have been remastered for this re-issue, and they sound rad. A good treatment of what I think are the best work from Baroness.





Stoked.
