More Punk / Power pop and not good even for that.
I see copies all the time for $2 and pass.

Thanx! You just saved me 13 euros

I need some info on this copy of Razor - Violent Restitution, 1988 Steamhammer/SPV.

This CD looks legit and the Matrix is that of a legit pressing, however, it is not the more common "CDP-BERLIN 85-7571 01" and the center ring of this CD is the same shiny silver color as the rest of the disk, not the see-through clear of the other pressing I have.

Is this a repress of some sort?

Any information would be grealty appreciated.

MAYHEM Bloodrush 12". Is this worth picking up? It appears on a lot of NWOBHM lists and I can pick it up cheap.

Anyone?

Is "Is this heavy or what?", Swedish thrash compilation from 1988 easy to find in Sweden? Was it ever released on CD, or just LP?

It's a 7" (reviewed here) and was definitely never released on CD. And yes, it's quite easy to find here, at least for being a 20-year-old EP. Do you need it?

Yeah, I'd like to have it if you can find it for a decent price

I have a question about the Drakar - Let Draka LP

I have the original czech first pressing.
I've noticed today that the labels on the vinyl state that it is a promotional copy. Does every lp has this?

It's printed, so it would amaze me if they only printed a few labels with this info.

My copy has the same text on the "Globus" side too. A wild guess; there's probably only one pressing of this album, all of them with this text. The English "Flight Of The Dragon" pressing doesn't though.

Is this the first press CD by Lady Sabre? Is there any other press of this album? I am suspicious because the CD was released in 1989 and I do not know any other album from the 80`s that had the cover artwork pressed on the CD itself. All my CDs from the 80s/ early 90s look pretty simple with at most being the logo pressed on CD. Also, this one has a 6 side booklet...
I am no CD expert, so I need help...

My Czech-version copy doesn't have this remark on the labels.

Recent Steamhammer reissue, don't know the exact year. All the SPV reissues are deceptive like that, everything is exactly the same except for the solid silver matrix area. Same for all Destruction, Sodom, Evildead, etc. CDs that you can buy new in stores and online.

I have the promo text on both Czech and English versions of the LP.
