I grabbed it for a couple of euros and the CD feels a bit "off"

I can provide a scan if needed.

Here's the scans (once again) for original Mausoleum Classix cd

Nightcrawler wrote:what is the matrix of the original Lazarus Sin CD?

I tried to scan front and back but the result does not help:





The matrix is read from the front of the CD :

DM - 88060 - 1 T 21 (last 2 digits are smaller)

and has also a bunch of symbols, which i don't know what they are, maybe another member that has it can explain.

Here's a scan from mine! Maybe bootleg or re-press??? I remember reading in an old "Heavy Oder Was" (Germany) magazine that the band did a re-press...anyone knows more about it???

The Mausoleum Classics label got broken in 99 but they still got tons of CDs of their label so they decide to put a huge stock to a kind of a warehouse and they paied a rent for it! after some years they stop to pay and since a couple of years the stock came to the market but 1st just a few titles cause there is a huge pile of unopened boxes and it tookes a long time to check them all and organize everything!
So maybe some titles more will be find...

Of course there are some different pressings around! They were produced in Germany and Austria as well!

There are 3 different pressings of all the titles!

The 1st titles came with 58 titles on the backside of the booket (they were made in Austria)! But 9 titles:

704102.2 Steeltower Night Of The Dog
704103.2 Seargant Seargant
504104.2 Together Playing Games
704153.2 Made Axeman Made Axeman
704154.2 Torch Fire Raiser
704155.2 Faith Full Breath Gold`n GLORY
704156.2 Maggie's Madness on fire
704157.2 Wolf Edge of the World
704158.2 Steve Bad - Killing the night


of them were only for the american market but later they stopped to sell them and removed the titles from the booklets and the next pressings came out with 49 titles only!

So this 9 titles are the most rare releases of the Mausoleum Classics serie!

Also there is 1 pressing more without informations about the other releases - its just white!
