thomas Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 So I just opened my copy for the first time and was like "WTF?" Why does this vinyl look like it was spray painted silver, and still have a black edge? It also looks like there are no grooves on it, it is pretty weird looking. Edit: Every time I watch it spin I am thinking, "little silver flakes are chipping off and ruining my needle!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
counterfiction Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 it's a picture disc (most have black edges) and the center is basically glitter with vinyl pressed over it. it has grooves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomas Posted July 7, 2008 Author Share Posted July 7, 2008 I figured it was some sort of picture disc, but man it is weird seeing it for the first time for some reason. Maybe I am just tired and the shininess is affecting my brain and vision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thomas Posted July 7, 2008 Author Share Posted July 7, 2008 Well one record is fucked, it looks like it was bent around weird so I don't think it'll play, plus the hole is too small to get on the spindle. It's not like warped bent, but like the picture disc part looks like it is coming off. Edit: Woo, not fucked, jimmied out the hole with some scissors and even though the vinyl looked bubbled at bit toward the middle, it played and sounded fine.

Guest pelican2112 Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 Mmm yeah, I love that color record. The HWM - Alachua 7" with the spray painted cover has the same color vinyl, totally sweet. Easily one of my favorite colors/pictures discs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
