...and it has a hole in the barcode. Heavy Artillery was recently acquired by Earache so this version suddenly went OOP and is very hard to find. And the band is very popular... we'll speak in a year or two

The difference beween original Sultan and boot is that the original has a matrix CDT Berlin that looks identical to say... Coroner Mental Vortex CD, and the boot has a different font: http://moole.ru/uploads/posts/2010-10/1287758050_cd.jpg

that pic is boot.

@vektor - try to buy it somewhere. you will see mass "out of stock" assault on your eyes. A guy on discogs has one for 18.50€ but only because most people don't look there, some copies for insane prices on amazon... and thats it!

I don't think it will be like the Hexen debut, which was pressed in small quantities and there are no planned reissues too (and I don't even have it, as my copy was lost somewhere in the post...)

it's 50 times more popular than the Hexen debut. And widely regarded as a masterpiece. But whatever... you'll see.

You're still missing my point ... of course Vektor are 50, 100, 1000 times better than Hexen musicwise, but if you still have a good number of copies of the original pressing around PLUS an incoming reissue in big quantities, it'll be unlikely ever the same ...

But yes we will see in the future (surely Demolition is already to the roof)... we could start asking the band/label how many copies exist of the Heavy Artillery edition (my guess: 2000 or more copies)

Funny to see Blacklace posted twice on the last couple pages, I also just found a mint copy at a flea market for $3! I know it's not a rare record but still surprised to find it where I did.

I've picked up a ton of stuff over the past several weeks, will post some of the better finds when I get everything sorted.

The cover sleeve is made of extremely thick paper (elephant skin), so thick I can't even put the vinyl with inner sleeve in it!

Here's the band reply to Earache being lazy... a selfpressing on cardboard (probably CDRs too)

Long time ago I wrote here, so I can't remember everything I bought the last couple of months but here's what I can recall from my memory right now.

Satan - 4 different pins from kiss of death - court in the act time
Lord Ryür - Pact with the Sinner 7''
Storm - Darkness 7''
Tyfuz - Rock'n'Roll 7''
V/A - Rock i Umeå 7''
Nattfall - Rädd för det okända 7''

Layout - Wasted Love 7''
NJB - Soldier of Love 7''
Elsy Band - Vart är du på väg? 7''
Reincarnate - Take it or Leave it 7''

And finally completed my Sarcofagus collection of the original 7''/LPs with these two:

It's a compilation single released in 1982, including 4 songs with 4 different bands; White Falcons, Nasty Music, VIP and Mogg. The only great song on this single is by the band Mogg (Gotham City members). Sounds like a mix between Sweet Savage 7'' Straight through... and Mendes Prey. Nothing like their shitty 7'' from years later.
