hyperrealist Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 BARONESS "First & Second" LP! Here it is at long last! The first six songs recorded by metal giants BARONESS. Six years ago Baroness played their first show here in Savannah and we immediately approached them about doing a record. A year later we began the next one, another EP, nothing too big just yet. As it turned out, that was probably the perfect plan. Those first six songs drew an incredible amount of attention to them and were the only releases they were supporting on their first tour outside of North America. In those six short years, this band has gone from the basement to the arena and have grown and matured as musicians to create some of the most tastefully and intelligently written heavy music of recent decades. We can't express how happy we are to have played a small role in this band's history. After several pressings of the original EP releases and a little time spent out of print, here they are released together on one LP - remixed, remastered and better than ever. The art and packaging here is very similar to the CD reissue that came out last year with a gatefold jacket, matte varnish and foil stamps. 2,000 copies were pressed in this pressing - 1,000 black, 500 opaque red and 500 olive green. These are sitting at the pressing plant this very moment, ready to leave the docks and will be arriving here in just days. You can preorder it now and it will ship out as soon as it arrives. Order now from our homepage: http://www.hyperrealist.com We have also made the BLACK TUSK "Passage Through Purgatory" signed/numbered LPs and THOU / CITT split LPs available on the home page as well. Only a few left of each! Upcoming releases: BLACK TUSK / ASG "Low Country" split 10" BLACK TUSK "The Fallen Kingdom" 12" WHITE DRESS 12"/CD IABHORHER 12" (Reissue of classic 7" and comp tracks!) and more to be announced soon...

hyperrealist Posted October 31, 2010 Author Share Posted October 31, 2010 Whoops! Sorry, kurtz. I just had the colors photographed with the sleeves that way because it looks nicer. The red vinyl was supposed to be shot with the "Second" label facing up so as to match the sleeve... Didn't happen that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
