oh well, they sound great so i really dont care. ive never seen a vinyl outer jacket this thin though, i have inner sleeves that are thicker than this. |
Yeah I agree, ridiculous packaging. |

| i've got the s/t and the return reissue recently. the return has the thin packaging exactly like probert pic but not the s/t so i'm not sure if they r from the same bacth of reissue. soundwise i've got no problem but packaging is minimal at best....... |

haha thanks, theres another shelf below the ones visible. its very sturdy, the logs were chosen for a rickety appearance but they are solid. theres about a ton of records holding it in place too.

You know, my bands' first 7"EP is like 17 minutes long and it still sounds like it should be. It was pressed in GZ. The label owner said that a side of a 7"EP can be up to 10 min max. |
theres no set length, it depends on how much low end you want your record to have. scratchy ass punk bands have no problem fitting 10 mins on a side if they want to. the antaeus/katharsis is really long. katharsis side is around 9 minutes, antaeus is around 7.
love you |
It would be interesting to find a metal release that exists on both 7" and 12", like Repugnant - Hecatomb, rip it to a digital file, and do a side by side comparison of the sound quality. Of course they would be different, because there are two different vinyl cuttings. But it would be highly interesting to hear how metal records respond to the limitations in the vinyl format.

Is this the most recent reissue (grey vinyl and "remastered")? I've been thinking about buying those because I don't feel like paying much for the originals but with sleeves that thin I think I'd have to think again. |

yep thats the one. i bought them all when they came out since ive never really owned decent copies of them. the sleeve thing is more funny to me than anything now, i was a little bothered when they came but like i said, they sound fine and im glad to have them.

they'd get bent easily though putting them in/taking them off the shelf though right? that looks retardedly thin.

Got all these reissues too, keep my vinyl outside of the sleeves to avoid seam splits, ring wear etc. So far so good.

That's good to know. I was wondering how the remaster sounded. My old Hammerheart LP is quite worn and crackly, so I might get this and put the vinyl in the old sleeve. Pity they didn't make a black vinyl version though.
Anyone heard the Blood Fire Death remastered vinyl? Is it good?
Getting tired of my old worn-out picture disc.
Also, is it just the the white vinyl version of BFD that's remastered? There's a black vinyl version on the Black Mark website, but it's doesn't say it's remastered:
