Nothing Happens Until Somebody Sells Something



For those of you who missed the Maine Coons album from a couple of years back (which probably means all of you), three of the songs were just pressed up by Stencil Trash, or sorta pressed up, or something. Actually I think it's a lathe-cut, but don't quote me on that. Limited is one way of putting it -- I mean, check out this pack o' horseshit:

lim. 37 edition: 3-color sprayed 1-layer stencil on 350g/m² grey recycled paper with a cut-out front; blue wax 7″ in a stamped 90g deluxe paper innersleeve; big center hole with a splattered single star in it; stamped white labels; numbered by stamp.
lim. 24 edition: 2-color background sprayed 350g/m² grey recycled paper with a 2color sprayed 1-layer stencil behind a 2-color 1-layer stencil sprayed 2mm polycarbonate plate; blue wax 7″ in a stamped 90g deluxe paper inner sleeve; big center hole with stamped white labels; numbered by stamp.
13 hand-numbered test-pressings in a 7″ cover that is coated with adhesive wood imitation foil; inscribed by hand with a lagoon blue acrylic-based hybrid paint marker.

It's okay, though, you can still catch all of the songs on Bandcamp. The songs picked for the 7" are some of the more Mark Sultan-sounding ones, but the album's way more wide-ranging than that, plus "I Am a Motherfucker" and "Hey Dickhead" would sound pretty great blasting out of your iPod. There's an ace Urinals cover, too.
