Last year I posted about the Big Laugh 'Manic Revision' 7" that Revelation put out (reissued). I picked up way too many copies. Rev pressed this on three colours of vinyl - black, 'blue and red marble' (basically grey) and orange. But then there were a small number of red copies too. And I managed to get a copy that was almost yellow. And then this year at RevHQ I managed to find another quirky copy, with this one being on green vinyl.
Officially this does not exist, but I am assuming that it was just some transition type copy, although this theory doesn't really make sense as green comes from yellow and blue being mixed, and there were no yellow or blue of this record. Anyway, regardless of how this may have come to be, it exists... even though officially it doesn't.
As I mentioned, the Revelation pressing of this was actually a reissue. The record was originally released by a label called 11PM Records back in 2002. They pressed it on 3 different colours of vinyl, and I picked up one of these a couple of months ago with a little help from a friend.
This blue vinyl copy is a second press copy out of 200 copies. It goes pretty well with the front cover. I actually think the blue cover looks better than the red that Rev used, although it's nice that Rev changed it.
This band has a new record this year which I didn't get around to picking up, but which I have listened to online and its a real banger, switching up their sound so that they almost sound like Deadguy. I'm hoping to get one of those at some point.
