RSD Melvins/MC5 Split 7"

[maffymaff]

I just popped in to my kcal record store to pick up Mike and the Melvins and was chatting to the owner about Record Store Day. Turns out there's going to be a secret 7" that is MC5 and The Melvins doing Rocket Reducer!
I'm not sure if this is a UK only release.
If anyone is going to be looking for it it's a plain, dark front cover (either black or dark brown).

RSD? Fuggin hipsters! 

[maffymaff]

It's an Atlantic release, so perhaps one last cash grab before Third Man bring out the Atlantic years records?

Atlantic

What?! Atlantic? Why? Because the MC5 are on there? 

[buddy holiday]

rocket reducer was on the atlantic cd single for lizzy.
and also on the amrep vinyl of houdini.

rsd releases such singles as part of the "side by side" row. same song, original and a cover version. they normally come in a plain sleeve with a side by side sticker.

Well, as long as we're talking about the original version from the Lizzy CD/Houdini LP and not some new re-recorded version, I'm ok with that.

I love a good quest! This seems worthy. Anybody else have details?

UK only, special reverse play groove, special double groove of the MC 5 cut that's an orchestral version, etching of Satan under the label on the Melvins side, picture disc, splatter glow in the dark with a hologram of Yoda projected above during play.

I just picked this up at my local record store for $8. It's the mystery side by side 45 for RSD. Red vinyl. Available in the US as well

[the ether bunny]

Picked one of these up today for $10. Is this the first Melvins release on Atlantic since the 90's?
