(the) Melvins
will be releasing the vinyl version of "The Bride Screamed Murder". Amphetamine Reptile Records & Us have cooked up some kookiness for that release which will be explained in the coming week - release will be JANish
In the meantime we have a special TEST PRESSING release. A special sleeve made for the Test Press ONLY. There are only 5 ...TP's and Retardist artist HAZE XXL screwed one of 'em with spray paint!. So here pictures to explain the Lino cut/vellum/stenciled sleeve. Only 5 made and heading to eBay soon.

Here we go again. Eyes down for a full house......
can't wait!!!!!!!!!
Can everyone who is going to complain about not being able to get one launch a preemptive strike just to get it out of the way? Or better still...not gripe at all?
I wonder if the omission of the "I" in "Melvins" was intentional or a screw up. Either way, that rules.
Melvns.
Well maybe after the "warped" NWB debacle with Ipecac, they figured let AmRep put the next one out. Will be ordering this.
dear santa.
What's the deal with AmRep? Dead but yet put on festivals and melvin's vinyls?
Finally!!!

The last Heroine Sheiks album was on AmRep too. I think they decided to unofficially stop being defunct. I'm glad though. :D
That's fukin' awesome.
It was intentional. It's retardist art

No way, Jose, I'm trying to SAVE money this month. I'll not be bidding on any of these test pressings but I'd like a complete set of the normal ones when they're released next year.

...I'd like a complete set of the normal ones when they're released next year.
Are they planning on doing it like the HAT singles? I thought it would just be
one piece of 12" vinyl like NWB. ????????
check: http://bored.amphetaminereptile.com/ (http://bored.amphetaminereptile.com/)
the way i understand it is: it's going to be a 12", multicolor. with different artwork available.
i just hope they make it available over normal channels for those interested.
there is currently a testpressing on ebay:

I like how haze went with an abbreviated title "melvns".
how 2010 age-of-text.
bah! it was just a mistake, he ran out of space.
otherwise it should have been MLVNS
bah BAH! I think its an elaborate and deeply meaningful code continuing the tradition of MELVINS varations.
melvins, the melvins, (the) melvins, snivlem, sawed off, and so on and so forth

:shock: It's up to $700- with 5 days left........holy shit !
at least amprep is getting the cash.
but it's insane...
and i laugh.
pinky got it yet,i'm sure
Does anyone suspect that a release show may happen in Minneapolis? Speaking for myself, that twenty-five minute set at the Amrep bash was just not enough, awesome as the whole event might have been. [-o<

as far as i have understood all 1000 records will have the sleeve with the bird by mackie... (HAZE XXL: The actual Brides vinyl is gonna be splatter color! They'll all have a manufactured sleeve (designed by Mackie). Then we're getting a bunch of artists lined up, and Mackie will be doing 100 letterpress prints of their art that will be affixed to the manufactured sleeves. There will be 10 different letterpress designs.)

Vinyl is gay and only hipsters by it because they think it makes them look cool. Posers.

Hipsters dont even buy vinyl...they're too busy searching for black jeans that are so tight they will give you a yeast infection.

From the AmRep board...special ltd. ed. broken version.
AND THE WORLD CRIED!!!
When I saw it on Facebook I figured it was a joke. Remember all the people complaining about damaged/wharped vinyl shipments?
i can't wait to get this vinyl. from the looks of it the artwork seems better. not to mention a SOLID album.
Someone wasted no time:

oh man! Looks so nice.
Looks great, not to mention the concept is insane. Ten artists, 100 copies for each!?
Is anyone going to the shows this month that could get me one of these records? I would be forever in your debt :D
Mackie, Haze XXL & Junko Mizuno covers...

It just says what the deal is with the letterpress LPs, but doesn't list the artists.
i want the wormkill one...this is one release i don't want to miss out on.

guessing that would be junko mizuno's...
the wormy one is HAZE's, so i'm guessing the one above the worm is mackie's.
