stefan Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 Razorcake and Accident Prone just reissued this and it's now up for sale. A great record, very recommended. Maybe Virgil will get some in? Battle Hymns isn't, technically, an album, although it's a full-length record. It's a collection of much of Tiltwheel's earliest songs that were on comps and splits, all in one handy slab. This record was first released in 1996 by Liquid Meat and has been increasingly hard to find over the years. We thought it'd be a good idea to make this great record available again. For those of you nerdy enough to remember, the CD and LP versions of this record were slightly different. The LP was mastered a hair faster, it included lyrics, and it had extra song, a cover of Leatherface's "Bowl of Flies." Davey Tiltwheel found a DAT of the vinyl master, and we had our pal Lazer Lavin re-master these songs (with Tiltwheel's approval) specifically, for both this LP and CD. (There's also one other thing we did to the record, but we're not telling what it is.) We love vinyl, but also realize that those backpack record players skip when we're roller blading and getting rad, and more folks are using MP3 players. So, both the CD and LP come together in the same package. Lastly, the original cover art by the inimitable Carson (www.tattoosbycarson.com), inventor of the Pill Boy, was left intact, with the exception of using silver paper stock instead of white (so you know it's a re-press right off the bat).

kyle Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 Got my copy today of the repress today. County Line Road (Davey and J from Tiltwheel/Dan Padilla acoustic) played a house show/BBQ out here and Todd from Razorcake brought them their copies. Looks sweet, about to go play it now. PS- Tiltwheel did a set too and it was amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
