The Wild Style version of the up until it’s reissue unknown to me New Breed tape compilation, was taking a place on my want list. I actually didn’t know the compilation since I’m fairly young and not listening to Hardcore when it was originally released. And although I bought the regular version at the Good Life distribution, it was Marcus from The Endless Quest who let me know the existence of a coloured version. I immediately wanted it big time.
It’s a real nicely done version. The front of the cover is screened with a thick layer of silky ink. The back is – as you can see – hand numbered. And has the song list glued on it. This is a rather work intensive sleeve. The vinyl comes on ultra clear blue vinyl.
Also the booklet is richly illustrated with drawings and pictures along with the lyrics. Since I bought it from the executive producer, I had the opportunity to add another of his releases the shopping cart. It’s a reissue of the Absolution four songs ep. Also has a very beautifully layout. And is totally limited on gold vinyl. Absolution’s the very first band on the list of the compilation. Seems like Ryan is doing a run of reissues of bands featured on the compilation amongst the clothing he makes.
It also exists on purple vinyl out of 150 copies. As I was willing to tip you that they were doing pre-orders for the Altercation 7 inch, I realized it already sold out entirely it seems.
One response to “the New Breed’s Absolution”
The cover of the LP looks great and makes me want to listen to it every time I see it.Good work on the Absolution 7″ too! Looks nice.
