And if you didn't miss out, you'll probably want this repress cause it's upgrades on upgrades packaging wise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

corey. Posted November 30, 2019 Author Share Posted November 30, 2019 I've been putting a lot of work into the new packaging design and I'm really excited for this to drop. This time around I was way more hands on than just choosing the variants and can confirm the following upgrades: - New back cover (the original back cover rules but was very blurry) - Matte jackets - Printed inner sleeves w/ lyrics and liner notes (matte finish) - New Side A/B Labels - Japanese obi strips (Limited to 25) - 3 new vinyl variants - Screen printed jackets w/ test presses Shelby, batnoises and N8TRU 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shelby Posted November 30, 2019 Share Posted November 30, 2019 Nice. I love my first pressing variant but the packaging is seriously lacking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No pressure Haha I did the design and layout for that release too but not in as much control with the specifics (like the art direction and printing specs like matte jackets as summer death was standard gloss). Minus the gatefold.. I believe this to be better quality packaging wise as far as the art goes. The images I had to use for the summer death re-issue had basically the same problems as the AIW first press in regards to blurry photos. Audio wise... it was remastered by an engineer the band chose but they decided it sounded worse than the original so the audio will be the same for this press. Edited December 1, 2019 by corey.

That's where my thoughts were. I've got an OG of that one so I ended up passing on the reissue after mulling it over, but I didn't wanna miss this one.
