The Toxik one (RoadRunner version ?) you can see if it's a boot instantly, in the upper side of the cd there is RR 95722 instead of RR 9572 2 (yes they forgot a space lol !)

Got the bootleg! I think I now have three bootlegs of this haha.
Any leads on recognizing Dreamweaver bootleg? It's got the noise merchandise pages inside the booklet, did they bootleg those aswell?

Compare matrix to any other late 80s Noise CD, very easy to spot. I don't recall all the details, they left my collection as soon as they entered it (returned), but they were easily distinguishable as bootlegs. Unless there's a new batch that's more convincing.

The matrix on the "Master Project Genesis" bootleg is not identical. It has flaws.

How do you tell the difference between the boot and the original? Other then the spelling being off on two words.

You have the GER press (N 0132-2) right ?

That's the one. I must have some other Noise CD's...I think I have some old Celtic frost ones.

There's already a thread baout this here.

For starters the matrix is centered in the center ring where as with all DADC Austria discs and matrix is off to the one side.

Your cd is probably the bootleg sorry ^^

Chebanana's looks legit. Price is high though, as usual

Do anyone knows if these ones are bootlegs?

I never knew there was a blue vinyl of that Mercyful Fate EP, or a green vinyl of that BG one.

Mercyful Fate is a bootleg, but I believe the BG is original. I could be wrong.

Both bootlegs, as far as i know.
