Packages from JAD, GW, etc.

I received the following stuff a few days ago, but I've been too busy to report it. Lately I've been focusing on redecorating my apartment and redecorating my soul as well. It all went good somehow. There's still a few scratches on one, but perfection is overrated anyway.
So I got my complete 2nd press of Debaser - Rich White Boys 7" a couple of days ago. 4 pieces all in all, with two of them being handnumbered out of only 12. Apparently Just Another Day Records is getting a lot of praise and respect, which is fully earned. But JAD haven't grown out of size, so Seb still takes time out to respond to his loyal supporters (read: moi). I asked him for a full set of the 2nd press, and he promptly responded in a coorperative manner :)

Here they are:

white /225, green /190, mint white /12, green & black /12

I also got a free 7" from JAD this time. The debut from Out To Sea. It's located below with a Miles Away 7" I got off Ebay for $0.99 and the debut 7" by Signs Of Hope on blue /108:

Out To Sea on clear vinyl /200
Signs Of Hope on Blue vinyl /108
Miles Away on Black vinyl /500

I ordered the Sign Of Hope 7" from Goodwill Records in Portugal. Unfortunately he was in the middle of moving to Berlin with a stop in Italy, so I had to wait about two months before I got this. With that I also ordered a Pointing Finger - Milestone LP test press out of 10. I was really siked that they had more of these left. They're one of my favourite hardcore bands, so 20 euros for this super rare piece of European hardcore history was a bargain:

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.
