    PO: HAVE A NICE LIFE - DEATHCONSCIOUSNESS RE-ISSUE

    in Vinyl Collective Message Board

    And from The Flenser's site:

     

    The album is scheduled for release September 17th. We intend to ship pre-orders by that date. However, delays can happen and the release date could be pushed back. Thank you for your patience.

     

    The reissue of Deathconsciousness will come in a thick case-wrapped gatefold jacket. The jacket features a new layout by Niels Geybels with some additional text by the band. All variations of the album come with the 70+ page zine made from the same files as earlier editions. The lacquers were cut by Dave at Lucky Lacquers. This is a much louder and more dynamic cut than the previous issue of the album.

     

    The album will be released in four configurations:

    Standard weight black vinyl

    180 gram black vinyl (limited to 500 copies)

    Green vinyl (limited to 400 copies)

    White vinyl (limited to 300 copies)

     

    Thanks for the info, updated my post. Probably going for that 180 Grams even though shipping will be a beast.

    HAVE A NICE LIFE'S DEATHCONSCIOUSNESS RE-ISSUE COMING 9/16 FROM THE FLENSER
    80ww_Screenshot20140702at81425AM.png
     
    In 2008, Have A Nice Life released their now cult classic Deathconsciousness LP to a whimper and critical non-interest.  Six years after its release, the band followed up with 2014's stunner The Unnatural World and Deathconsciousness became a force of influence and fanatic obsession. Seamlessly blending with unparalleled depth and weight, shoegaze, post punk, new wave, industrial and noise, the album was originally released on Enemies List Home Recordings (founded by HANL members Dan and Tim). It has since floated in and out of production, with the last instantly out-of-print vinyl pressing occurring in 2009.  Now, longtime HANL collaborator The Flenser will re-issue Deathconsciousness with deluxe packaging, including a lengthy accompanying zine and colored vinyl.  Have A Nice Life commented, “Working with Flenser lets us keep things comfortable on our end, while also pressing enough copies to actually meet the need and not creating an artificially-inflated collector’s market, as happened with some of our past releases.”   
     
    The Flenser's reissue of Deathconsciousness will be accompanied by a 75-page booklet detailing the dark and forgotten history of the Antiochean cult.  Blurring the lines between novella, liner notes, and academic text, the zine itself presents an engrossing narrative.  Deathconsciousness is rhythmic, primal and expansive and is a cult-post-punk masterpiece; a mediation on death, loss and unrequited love.  Deathconsciousness feels more fresh and engaging with every listen and has held up as a remarkable piece of art. Fans of Have A Nice Life exhibit both cultic thought and action for good reason. It is perhaps a fanbase as dark and mysterious as the Antiochean cult, the album itself revolves around. Now The Flenser is honored to rereleaseDeathconsciousness a gorgeous and disarming contribution to the modern lexicon for a larger audience.

    There's one on discogs, but like you said, pretty outrageous price. If its any consolation, I'm pretty sure I paid at least $50 for this years ago before prices for skramz related stuff got as totally ridiculous as they are now, so its pretty brutal but if you could talk him down a bit via message you might be able to get it to something palatable. this album has been hard to come by for as long as i remember. 

     

    I got my 2nd press copy for 10€ + 10€ shipping on discogs not too long ago. Absolute steal, I know, but yeah sometimes you just have to sit and wait. Then again I paid 50$ with EU shipping for a OG press in "great condition" and it had dirt and dust particles pressed into the grooves so that it plays only with a lot of surface noise. That was a bad one.

    I need to give it a few more listens, but the only thing I don't care for is the female singer. I forget which song it is, Gutted maybe?, she really sounds like Christina Aguilera and it just really turns me off.

     

    Also, I wish the poster was something...else. As a girl, it's not like I'm going to hang that up or anything haha.

     

    I'd never hang up a poster with lyrics on the back anyway. Especially not for this album.
