Thought this might be of any interest here. No april's fool.

For non-German speakers:
On monday morning a huge fire occured in German pressing plant PALLAS GROUP (e.g. Eldorado), leaving nought but some walls remaining.
According to early reports, the complete pressing plant fell victim to the flames.
More recent reports revise that the production hall for CDs and DVDs was entirely destroyed while a neighboring hall, where all the vinyl production takes place, remained untouched by the flames. |

This is my educated guess:
Peaceville
Van
older Iron Pegasus releases
Moonfog when they were still pressing vinyl

Yes, I'm pretty sure about Van, too.
Also, speaking of myself and some friends, Bleak Bone Mortualia, Deviant Records and Sol Records. |

Old Iron Pegasus releases were pressed at GZ. It's the new ones which were pressed in another plant, which I suppose is the one caught on fire? Too bad if this is the plant Steamhammer/Peaceville used, their products were top notch, miles ahead anything has ever come out of GZ.

Fairly sure about Peaceville too. Shame, everything I have from both labels does sound really excellent.

Older Iron Pegasus was definitely not GZ pressed. I'm talking about stuff like Zemial, Agatus, Sabbat envenom, evoke, etc.

Old Iron Pegasus releases: Czech vinyl, German sleeve
Now, it's the contrary

I have the first press of Envenom and those two Zemial records in my hands right now. They're all pressed at GZ, check the matrix.

According to their website the vinyl production is not affected at all and will continue as usual. (http://www.pallas-group.de/news.php?action=displayNews&news_id=56)
If you mean the damage for the company (approx. an 8 digits Euro number), agreed. Highly traditional and experienced plant (established in 1948), providing excellent quality. |

| So what? They surely have an insurance dealing with such cases. |
