Recent Metal Finds
Not that hard to find, I paid €8 for a mint copy.
About those colours, I was in contact with the guy from Punk etc. some time ago and I vaguely remember him stating they were released at the same time, but I'm not sure anymore. I'll ask the singer of X-creta, probably he knows too.
I have some VERY raw live songs of X-creta, not a whole set but I could upload it if anybody is interested?

I've gotta brag just a bit here: I bought my copy of Battle Cry at a shop in L.A., and there's this big sticker on the cover that says "Library of Congress surplus copy"! Normally I hate stickers on my LP covers, but the idea that the last owner of this record was the U.S. government is just too damn funny......Nightlock wrote:Omen - Battle Cry (Metal Blade gatefold vinyl)

actually to me this is sad, as the LOC is supposed to be a repository of all copyrighted information in the U.S. but I've noticed they seem to have this tendency to dump alot of stuff. I've seen other books and mags similarly discarded.

Actually, my copy of Dungeon - Fortress of Rock is an LOC surplus copy too, so you may well be on to something. What Rob said is true, that in theory the Library of Congress is a repository for everything in the USA that ever gets copyrighted.DaN wrote:Makes you wonder if they have this huge reference library including just about every rare, private US Metal record ever releasedbeerandjesus wrote:I've gotta brag just a bit here: I bought my copy of Battle Cry at a shop in L.A., and there's this big sticker on the cover that says "Library of Congress surplus copy"!

Regarding the heist, I'll bet the security there is pretty weak... I'm down!
