okay, this bit of Melvinry is cool and all, but I am not buying (a)SA when it comes out on vinyl because I think the whole idea of one sided LPs is ridiculous. You know HH is gonna charge something like 40-50 bones for this. Just gimme the comic book, I say.  the artwork looks cool as hell.

I agree, one sided vinyl is a bit strange. Put a live show on there or something.
outtakes, bloopers, alternative mixes or an interview, anything.

It must be a collector nerd thing to have one side.

wonder if thats HH's idea or MELVINS.

could be MELVINS request in order to present (A)SA as it was meant to be presented, one piece of work w/ no break.

it's cheaper to produce if you only have to lathe one side.

i have  read somewhere that it should be 4x 1-sided LP!!!

anaconda

ok, now I understand! I thought they were going to try and squeeze it all onto
one single side of LP vinyl by lathing micro thin grooves. Real head scratcher there.

Classic Records is an audiophile label that reissues a lot of classic rock (The Who, Led Zep, etc) on one sided LPs. They also tend to split hairs and issue the same remastered recordings in 33rpm and 45 rpm  ](*,) I guess for people who need to hear the difference or whatever.

I wouldn't be surprised if (a)SA gets released as single sided LPs with an etching on the other side. This would defeat the "audiophile" nature of these particular one sided LPs, which I would doubt concern the Melvins to this infinitesimal degree . An etching on the other side would also raise the price.
