Package(s) 27.07.09


Today I got my first package since I decided to make their content accessible to the public with this blog. As a matter of fact I got two packages today, one of them which disappointed slightly. Well, be that as it may, I was stoked about getting these.


Content of package 1:


After surfing some vinyl boards late one night, I cam across the band Signs Of Hope, and I saw several people collection their records. Found them on myspace and a minute later I placed an order at Detonate Records. Signs Of Hope is an amazing hardcore band. Out of mere fear of misguiding somebody I've decided not to describe their music. "Choices Made" is the 2nd release from SoH, and it is available on white, clear, red, gold, green and blue vinyl. I've seen some other strictly limited colors of this release as well.
I was slightly disappointed with the cover of this release (it just has a "sleeve-slip" instead of an actual cover), but Detonate is a small label and it's okay. The first 7" from SoH can be ordered here.
The other 7" I got from Detonate Records this day was the Horizons debut 7" "Hostile Territory". A very solid debut and the vinyl can also be ordered in the same colors as the SoH 7".
Check Horizons out on myspace. Detonate have released two very solid 7"s here, be sure to pick them up.

Look at it! JUST LOOK AT IT!! It's amazing. You're looking at a picture of the "Turn It Around" Friends Press limited to 33. This is number 16. Comeback kid was probably the first band I started to collect after AFI. I've been after this piece for over a year and here it is (oh, and I'm out $140, but who cares...). I love this album and now I only need these to complet it:

Turn It Around Facedown Fest Press /43
Turn It Around Test Press GMS /13
Turn It Around Test Press (white vinyl)
Turn It Around clear/red blood w/ labels /218
Turn It Around gold /100
All the picture discs (hate these!!!)

hook me up. I got a lead on the Facedown Press and the clear/red blood w/ labels /218 press.

Someday I'll take a picture of the whole thing.
