Picked one of these up today for $10. Is this the first Melvins release on Atlantic since the 90's?
Besides Melvinmania, which the band had no say on.

How did you know you were buying a Melvins/MC5 split without opening it? I'll look for this tomorrow. Hoping if I find it it's this release and not some other random Atlantic split 7". Is there a catalog/UPC number on the shrinkwrap? Please tell.

It's the one secret split of the year. You'll see a record store day sticker on the left with a question mark.

I went to two stores but it was long gone. Got Cavern Of Antimatter instead.

There were two left at my local store this evening after I grabbed mine, well after everything had been picked over.

From this thread.  I don't believe there are any other splits that look like this.  It doesnt even say Atlantic anywhere on the outside.  There is a bar code on the shrink wrap on the back: 0 81227 94751 4

They had some other Atlantic singles that  were the same concept (same song performed by two bands) but clearly labeled as something other than this.

If you're in the boondocks, check online record stores that are selling leftover stock.  Chances are good that you'll find one.

Looked on Bull Moose, no luck. Or I don't understand what the title is...   :?

I heard 5000 of these were pressed so shouldn't be too hard to locate.
