Pressing Info: 1000 total - 100 opaque dark green (Sheath mailorder exclusive) - 300 white (Sheath/Redeye distribution color) - 100 clear gold (Topshelf mailorder exclusive) - 300 coke bottle green (Topshelf/EMI distribution color) - 200 clear (band exclusive) Press Release: "Partners in crime Caravels and Gifts From Enola have been threatening to make a split album together for a couple years now, and luckily for all of us... they've finally made good on that threat. Harrisonburg, VA's Gifts From Enola offer up two razor sharp, hardcore-tinged, post-something rippers, pushing forward hard on the evolution of their sound from the critically acclaimed self-titled 2010 full length that included "touches of Thrice's well structured post-hardcore, Tortoise's experimental side and even a little Fugazi thrown in for good measure" according to Decibel Magazine and that Lambgoat called a "gorgeous kaleidoscope of guitar playing and overall musicianship". Meanwhile, Las Vegas, NV natives in Caravels continue to push their multi-textured brand of emotive hardcore into new and unexplored territory. And for a band "already on the cusp of greatness" as Punk News proclaimed, it's impossible to listen to these songs and not believe that they have lived up to that hype with these three tracks - their newest hybrids of old school screamo blended seamlessly with layered post-rock elements. Sure, there is a lot of screaming and yelling, and a lot of loud guitars and drums, and an overall aggressive tone to the body of work on this split, but the only absolute and true over riding common denominator is that both bands effortlessly defy easy classification, making this split both as challenging and as rewarding as they come. The Gifts From Enola tracks were recorded by Will Benoit at Radar Studios (Junius, Cancer Conspiracy, Constants), while the Caravels tracks were cut at Earthling Studios with Mike Kamoo. Mastering duties were handled by Carl Saff (Grails, Young Widows, Tiny Vipers, The Black Heart Procession), with artwork handled by Charlie Wagers at Three Bears Design (mewithoutYou, Unwed Sailor, The Fray, Caspian). The album is set for a vinyl and digital release on January 24th, 2012 via Topshelf Records and The Mylene Sheath, respectively. Caravels appears courtesy of Topshelf Records, while Gifts From Enola appears courtesy of The Mylene Sheath. Each label will have exclusive colors of vinyl available for both mailorder and retail purchase, while the bands will have an exclusive color as well."

wizzi Posted December 2, 2011 Author Share Posted December 2, 2011 in for a green. can't wait to spin this. i can't wait to get ANY of the recent Mylene Sheath preorders. what's the hold up!? here's a post about the Junius/Rosetta split from Joel over on the sheath board: QUICK UPDATE: these are still in Atlanta (since yesterday, and we're about two hours east in Athens), they'd BETTER arrive tomorrow. We'll pack them over the weekend and have them all out to you guys. Sorry for the delay, I'm pretty sure our distributor has already sent them out to record stores as they received their copies earlier this week. Kinda funny to think these are in record stores before we've even seen them! Ours came via freight, sloooooooooow freight that is We'll post pics tomorrow when they show up!!

The Vool Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 Although the gold one looks absolutely fantastic, I've ordered the Dark Green vinyl from The Mylene Sheath! Can't afford variant collecting anymore...cannot wait for it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
celebdeath Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 Can't afford variant collecting anymore... ...and this is something I'm seriously going to have to consider too Sas. Sheathy stuff is the only stuff i collect variants for, but money is becoming scarce - big time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
