Black & White Confetti

Back in early October last year I saw Give play and bought the 'Singles Going Confetti' 12". The 12" compiles three of their 7"s and was released by Assault Records over here in Euroland. For some stupid reason, I didn't order the limited sleeve version (which I regret) nor the black version. Ah well, I have to leave myself something to aim for I guess.

Well wouldn't you know it, the same record has also been pressed for those Stateside by Deranged Records. The front cover is the same as the Euro version, although the colour scheme has changed. This new version has the band name and border in white rather than yellow, which looks way better in my opinion. Unlike the Euro version, I picked up one of each black and white vinyl copies.

The best thing about this is that the black vinyl copy contained this piece of paper:

This says that if you send the band a letter or postcard you can get free stickers, shirts, records and other cool shit. Seriously? That seems pretty damn generous to me. I wonder if they ship overseas?

My Flowerheads insert was on white paper. Yours was on yellow. It's stupid, but I find myself wondering if there were any other colors...

That Flowerhead thing is for real, and it rules. They do ship overseas, I got a special shirt and a 4-page newsletter. Just send them something cool, like postcards, pictures, drawings...
