Death

From the old board:
Reissue. If you don't know the band Death or their album Scream Bloody Gore, you should check it out if you're a metal head. Widely described as the first death metal album ever released. Digital pre-orders are open. But for some fucking reason the physical pre-order website was written by a goddamned mongoloid and doesn't actually let you, you know, PRE-ORDER.
They just don't make album art like they used to.
Correction: maybe not a mongoloid, but an inept web developer. The item I want is sold out so the link button is dead. The rest work fine.
Versions:
Fun fact: Ed Repka, the artist of the fucking awesome cover art, is the same dude that's known for the popular visualization of Vic Rattlesnake, the Megadeth mascot.

My general sentiment is fuck standard black. I don't get that basic unless it's vintage. I'm trying to wait on Friday before hitting up the only fucking place I can find that has the orange on preorder (Nuclear Blast Records in Germany -- I hope it's a front for a Bond villain). The shipping is more than the LP. As a bonus, I found a place with two mint copies of the '07 UK double LP Blood Splatter version. That'll just leave me to track down:3365 x Black Standard Gram
2500 x Royal Blue Standard Gram *Hot Topic / Euro Indie Retailer Exclusive* (Not available through Relapse.com)
2000 x Blood Red Standard Gram *Relapse.com Exclusive*
1000 x Halloween Orange Standard Gram *American / Euro Indie Retailer Exclusive* (Not available through Relapse.com)
500 x Bone White / Deep Purple Merge Standard Gram *Relapse.com Exclusive*
500 x Picture Disc *Relapse.com Exclusive*
Unfortunately Schuldiner played lead, rhythm, and bass guitar in the studio as well as laying down vox. Means the only guy I can locate to make it as kick-ass as possible is Chris Reifert, who did the drums (current drummer for Autopsy).- box set LP
