Wrong side of Christmas for me and I don't foresee this being hard to track on the street date. Also potential prize winner for shittiest album cover I've ever seen.

I'm definitely in but with a band this large I can't foresee any problems finding this at practically any record store on the release date. No info on variants and all the mock up images on fb are black so unless people are really itching to have a signed JAMC record waiting it out is a sound idea.

I just realized... looking at the track listing, most of these songs were already released as either Jim's Freeheat project, or Sister Vanilla. Even Amputation sounded familiar but I couldn't place it. It's because it was previously called Dead End Kids released by Freeheat. So it seems a lot of this isn't new.

I enjoy a good album cover but if the music is good I don't care what's on the front.

That's the whole point. Music first, but if they were really trying to be funny and punk they should have done something cool like the Feederz did and put sandpaper on the cover. I remember when I bought that record I had to double cover it so it wouldn't scratch up my other records every time I pulled it out.

This. I don't like this album cover but that's never going to stop me liking a record and I'm pretty sure recycled music or not I'll enjoy this cos it's JAMC.
