No, unfortunately this is not part 1 of a new porn I will be starring in. It is, in fact, part 1 of a 3 part blog post I will be doing in celebration of my new blog layout, and a box that recently came in the mail from one, Pavlos Ioanidis, aka the owner of Wreck-age and Exit records. Here's a little background for you...
A while back I contacted Pavlos in order to beg him for the remaining records I needed to complete my color Wreck-age and Exit collection. We were both busy, so communication was slow at first. During that time, I actually started to pick up a few records that I needed. Then one day, I was done. I was still waiting to hear back from Pavlos about the list, but I figured when I did, I would just let him know that I thought I was good, and the color collection was complete. So about a month went by and I heard back from him. I let him know I found every color release, and I was preparing to put together a full post showing the entire collection off. Then he said that he still had some stuff that he wanted to send me. This stuff was test presses! Exit/Wreck-age records are hard enough to find as it is, but test presses are just impossible. I've been very lucky over the years to collect a whole bunch of them, but I'm not even relatively close to the entire test press collection. Pavlos did get me a few steps closer though. Let's look at one of those steps.
Necracedia was a Pittsburgh punk band from the late 80s to early 90s. Their LP Now I See Clearly was Wreck-age's 2nd release...or 3rd if you want to count Gulag. I obtained the color version of this record in the late 90s I think, so you wouldn't have seen it on my blog. You can read about it on Marcus's blog though. Here's my copy.
And here's my test press!
HEYO! So now I have 002 and 003. 003 being the SFA So What? full length I wrote about a while back. Now if you'll notice, Pavlos went to Aligned for this record as well. I wonder if he did Bad Trip Positively Bad their too.
Part 1 is complete and I'll be doing parts 2 and 3 this week too. It only gets better from here.
P.S. What do we think of the new layout? I wanted to combine it with my personal site cause having 2 blogs was pretty dumb. I still have 2, but now it seems like 1.
Love the new look, minimalist (which is a really nice word to type) and sleek. Good job. Great post too.
ReplyDeleteNICE! Thanks a lot. Going for low key all the way.
DeleteI'm not so into this record, but this is still a great one to have. Wow. Cool.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, this may be a weird pressing plant to use, but still, I can tell just by looking at it that it's US vinyl.

ReplyDeleteHEYO! So presently I have 002 and 003. 003 being the SFA So What? full length I expounded on some time back. Presently on the off chance that you'll see, Pavlos went to Adjusted for this record also. I keep thinking about whether he did Awful Excursion Decidedly Terrible their as well. domestic violence attorney maryland Outstanding service from start to finish; they truly cared about my case.
