Melvins 1983 EP

[jonE5]

Oh my Will they have this in time for the Canada Lite tour?

I doubt it.  They are working on the Freak Puke vinyl first from what I understand.  It sounds like an end of year release.

These are gonna be awesome!  YUM! 

[buddy holiday]

finally another 10"!!

[>>>JZS<<<]

fuckin' killer !

Oh rats, I really hope this isn't vinyl only. It was bad enough when Big Business did that with their ep last year.
Yeah, I'm not a vinyl guy. 

Didn't Buzz say in an interview that he doesn't like vinyl and that it doesn't sell anymore? If so, then why bring out vinyl in the first place? Oh well, I guess I'll just have to listen to it on YouTube, if someone even posts it.

I don't get the logic of that either.

Based on things he's said in interviews, it sounds like he meant vinyl on a large scale - as in just putting out the same album, same artwork, same mix in mass quantities . . . on vinyl.  From that perspective, it doesn't sell.

What they're doing is selling vinyl more as artwork and for the "collector".  It's different from the original release in that respect.  It's limited quantitiy, the design is more unique, and especially as of late done by hand.  For those reasons they can charge more for it, and so it pays off. 

It's mass production of the same release thrown down at your local best buy vs. a unique piece of artwork they sell directly to their fans on the road.

Its 3 brand new songs and a reworking of the song Walter Cronkite by the Lewd. Walter is what they opened with on the 25th anniversary shows. It's longer, and they put in the lyrics.

Its an amazing record, and I'd love to hear a full length. You will LOVE IT.
