Still Screaming

A couple of years ago I finally got around to listening to the fifth (I think) LP from Scream, 'Fumble'. This record came out in 1993, which was ten years after their first LP, and featured their new drummer, a certain Dave Grohl. I mainly bought it because it was one of the latest round of Dischord colour vinyl repressings, and the price was really good. I loved the record and even thought I was stoked with the yellow vinyl, I felt slightly miffed when I went to discogs to add it to my collection to find that there had already been a colour vinyl pressing of this record seven years previous, in 2016. So of course, I did what I always do and I added it to my want list. Semi recently one showed up for sale in the UK at a great price, so I bought it.

When I bought this my plan was to keep the clear and sell the yellow. But when the clear one arrived, the sleeve was not in top condition. I thought about swapping the sleeves over but the yellow one comes in a sleeve with a sticker on the shrink, so it doesn't feel right. So for now I'll have to keep both.
