Nice! Thank you for sharing.
Mackie's new GPT image is my favorite for this title yet!

I wonder if the Senile Animal pressing is different than the ipecac one that came out in 2021/2022. It seems like this one is a single lp while the Ipecac was 2lp.
Yeah but it's not 40 years until next year! They are nice new covers by Mackie though. It's a bit weird or surprising that this is done through Revolver magazine.
These don't come out till April of next year.
Well Revolver has smartly rebranded as a vinyl and tchotchke shop recently. Melvins is perfect fodder for their high margin campaigns
Just got the Bullhead one as I've bought GPT and Senile Animal a little too recently,
Also, these new "covers" are just kind of slip cases/wraps it seems with the normal cover underneath

That occurred to me as well, but it did not stop me from buying it. I have a feeling it will also be a 2xLP (or maybe best of Senile Animal?)

I was actually hoping it would be a different pressing, as I read that the Ipecac pressing just sounded like a digital transfer. For an album that only runs 41 minutes, a single lp is fine, with 20 minutes on each side. The 45 rpm for the Ipecac pressing seemed like overkill to me (and apparently didn't improve the sonics all that much).
the album was recorded in protools 16 years ago. was never mixed or mastered for vinyl anyway. those days are over except for weirdos like Jack White and Trent Reznor. how does the original 4 disc vinyl pressing sound?

I agree with you to an extent. Vinyl sales surpassed cd sales last year, and will probably do so again this year. Also, since they seem so keen on putting out these boutique vinyl releases on AmpRep (and the prices they sell for), it does seem that they should have a passing interest in mixing/mastering their music for vinyl.
I'd be curious to hear those original 4-lp sets as well. My guess is those were mixed and mastered for that particular medium.

I went to my local store today to buy the Melvins Revolver magazine. They didn't have it! But i was amazed to see just how many music magazines there are on the market. Way more than i would have thought. Lots clutching to old acts too - The Beatles and Led Zep were on the cover of two of them.

I looked for it today at sweden´s biggest magazine distru ... did´nt even carry it...yet, i sent in a request ... Lol
Got my magazine bundle the other day. It's great! Great photos by Adam Jones and a nice retrospective on their 40 years plus new interviews
So has anybody actually bitten the bullet on the $205 40th Anniversary Bundle? It's a chunk of change but give them your email and phone (and a DNA sample) and you get 10% off. I don't have any of the three albums yet so it might make sense.

It was cheaper than this when it was first announced and you were offered a 10% discount if you kept it in your cart for 24 hours without buying.
It looks like Senile Animal regular version is sold out now.
