  1. I have a pretty clean copy of this for sale. There are some marks on the records and the jacket has some ringwear and a couple creases but it's in damn good shape. I'm asking $55 shipped. I will be more than happy to send pictures if interested. Just shoot me a PM and I'll provide!

     

    I don't have a working setup right now so I don't have the ability to play them to check for any pops or skips. The pictures are all I have. 

  2. I bought this print back in 2007. I'm just doing some purging and came across it. It was limited to 200. I paid around $300 for it. It's in great condition and is currently framed. I'm looking for $200 OBO. The frame would not be included. Here's some info on it. If you are interested I can send some actual pictures of it when I get home from work.

  4. Selling my copy. Not many exist in the wild. I'm asking $100 + shipping to wherever you may be. Here's some info on the release. Thanks!

     

    ABOUT THE PICTURE DISCS:
    > As you know we've been in a state of upheaval here as we've restructured and reorganized. Our warehouse had just under a thousand boxes in it (we counted) and one of them contained quite a surprise. Among hundreds of boxes of leftover record jackets was a box of picture disc samples from the first pressing of Vein. These picture discs are a great example of what Vein was supposed to be. 

    > You may recall the great expense we endured with the first pressing of Vein. The original idea was to press perfectly clear picture discs (these are the samples from that attempt) but we ended up having to go with screen printed records. The mylar shifted fractions of an inch within the heat of the press, one or two small tiny bubbles formed and in some instances the goat image skewed a little bit. A lot of money (and I mean a lot) time was lost in this process.

    > A lot of sales listings mistakenly refer to the commercially sold pressing as picture discs when in fact it was all screen printed vinyl. The picture disc version is much heavier due to the weight of the mylar combined with the heavy weight of the vinyl. The vinyl plays fine although the tiny bubbles (of which there are two or three on each record) create a low thud when the bubble occurs within the playable area. These are some of the only mylar picture discs ever manufactured. Keep in mind this is one of the only instances of mylar picture discs ever being attempted!

    > While they do function well as records (despite the bubbling) they're archival in nature and intended for the curious, extreme collector. These are super rare sample records and are particularly fascinating if you're into vinyl and how it's manufactured. There is no jacket included. You will receive the sample pic disc in a paper sleeve along with the mylar “pictures.”

  5. Maybe the most limited Boris pressing out there? Important records sold a few before Boris put a stop to that so I'm unsure of how many are out in the wild. It's the Mylar edition that they couldn't get quite right. Apparently it plays well but there are a few pops in the record. It's more of a novelty item anyway. Regardless, it's a beautiful looking record and I'm finally going to let it go.

     

    I'm looking for $200.

  6. I'm going to say longer. One of them has such a fucking sweet bass groove. It's still so vivid in memory. And who knows if we even got the full version? For example, they played an extended version of Bring The Sun, but didn't play the second half of the 30+ minute track. You just never know with Swans.

    Thanks for the info. I'd like them to do some more song oriented stuff. I feel like the past 2 records had enough droney walls of sound. I love them, don't get me wrong, but the more upbeat songs on To Be Kind were my favorites.

  7. If your setlist was anything like mine from a week ago, they actually played at least 3 new songs. And they're all incredible. Next album is going to be so very good, and continue the trend of quality found in Seer and TBK.

    Were the new songs more short and sweet or more like they have been of late....long with lots of build ups.
