DecayToDeath Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Hmm, guess I'll check this out then. Is there any reason this isn't repressed? Seems like it'd be a prime candidate It's not sought after for the music as much as the collector's value. In the genre they're important, but even the best in most genres don't sell for $9,000.

throughbeingcruel Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Hmm, guess I'll check this out then. Is there any reason this isn't repressed? Seems like it'd be a prime candidateIt's basically a demo that got pressed then tossed out because it sounded like ass. So it got completely re-recorded and re-released, and a new title. I don't like Judge, you can find my post about checking this out for the first time somewhere in the thread. But if you dig hardcore, you should probably hear it.

Bladewillisisdead Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Hmm, guess I'll check this out then. Is there any reason this isn't repressed? Seems like it'd be a prime candidate They accepted preorders for the album via mail order. The engineer at the studio was a coke head who basically disappeared leaving them to record the album by themselves. It sounded like garbage. They pressed like 100 to fulfill the preorders. Re-recorded the album and gave it a proper release. The reason it's sought after is it's scarcity. It's more oddity than album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WinterFartSteam Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 I have a copy of this. Received it from my brother when he gave up records about 5 years ago. He was big into hardcore back in the day. I had no idea it was worth so much. Not something I would ever have interest in parting with, though.

cephcarn4 Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 I can only imagine if Revelation decided to sell one of the Warzone LESC with the Lion Covers it would probably sell for 15,000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like it'd be a prime candidate It's been bootlegged a few times, and the songs are pressed on the discography, but the Chung King by itself will probably never get an actual repress, because it's terrible.

Shinji Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 I'm willing to bet you don't have a real Chung King and that you have the 10" bootleg.Yeah, I haven't checked the list recently, but weren't most of them accounted for by number?

SBarry Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Yeah, I haven't checked the list recently, but weren't most of them accounted for by number?Yep there's a full list of everyone around the world that actually owns a copy. Not to doubt Winter about his brother giving him his copy but considering what this goes for and what some people have had to do to setup buying one I really just don't see someone getting out of collecting and being like "here bro have mine".

WinterFartSteam Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 I'm willing to bet you don't have a real Chung King and that you have the 10" bootleg. It's #56 of 100 on white vinyl and isn't a 10". It's real. I grew up in Brooklyn and my brother is 15 years older than me. He went to a ton of shows in the mid/late 80's through the 90's until moving to the west coast in 2002. dickcritter, cephcarn4, aflycon and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He only had about 200 records, and hadn't listened to them in forever when he gave them to me. Clearly he had no idea of the value and I didn't either. I'm sure he will shit himself when I tell him.

If you have #56, contact the people on this website to get your copy accounted for. http://www.revelationrecords.com/pressing/where/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine if he had a chung king he was into collecting so good chance you have some crazy revelation rarities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SBarry Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Right but chances are he has other Rev releases that he acquire not for rarity sake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cephcarn4 Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 With that number chung king id say he was the original owner and actually sent in money orders. If that was the case id say he probably has other rev releases in color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WinterFartSteam Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 I'll have to look through everything more closely. The collection was dumped on me, my brother seemed totally disinterested so I never paid much attention and absorbed it into my collection. It's mostly hardcore and crossover. I'm not huge into that genre / time period of music so I haven't listened to a lot of it. I should check it out, though. I do remember he was huge into Agnostic Front, Misfits, and Minor Threat.
