THE VINYL WORD: SLAYER GETS THE DELUXE VINYL BOX SET TREATMENT; SMILING SATAN VOICES HIS APPROVAL

October 13, 2010 - On Sale , Recommended , The Record Exchange Blog , The Vinyl Word - by - No Comments

FREE TURNTABLE MAT OR LITHOGRAPH WITH PURCHASE OF BOX SET OR ANY SLAYER CATALOGUE ALBUM!

For the first time in their near 30-year history Slayer get their ten American Recordings albums released as a limited-edition, high-end box set, The Vinyl Conflict (American Recordings/Sony Legacy).

Ten albums on 11 discs, The Vinyl Conflict features the band’s entire Def/American Recordings catalogue: Reign in Blood (1986), South of Heaven (1988), Seasons In The Abyss (1990), the double-record Live Decade of Aggression (1991), Divine Intervention (1994), Undisputed Attitude (1998), God Hates Us All (2001), Christ Illusion (2006) and World Painted Blood (2009).

American/Sony Legacy invested a great amount of care into making The Vinyl Conflict, treating the albums the way they would treat a great jazz, classical, Bob Dylan or Miles Davis record, something that isn’t normally done for metal records.

All ten albums have been re-mastered from the original analog flat master tapes and were pressed on the highest quality, 180-gram audiophile vinyl at RTI, the most respected pressing plant in the U.S. and among the best in the world. Lacquers were cut and re-cut several times to ensure the highest sound quality.

The individual vinyl discs come in a standard, clear inner sleeve to preserve the vinyl and are housed in high-quality litho-wrapped jackets, then boxed in a hardcover slipcase. Additionally, reproductions of the original LP inner sleeve artwork were converted to 12X12 inserts. — Guitar World

VINYL WORD: DUNGEN – SWEDISH FOR HASH-SOAKED PSYCHEDELIC GODHEAD

October 5, 2010 - Recommended , The Record Exchange Blog , The Vinyl Word - by - No Comments

BUY THE VINYL HERE

If Gustav Ejstes has shown any particular inclination during his 10-plus years fronting the Swedish prog-pop act Dungen, it’s toward music with a cinematic sweep, even if he has to get that sweep by borrowing from psychedelia, Eurovision kitsch, Celtic folk, post-punk, Krautrock, jazz fusion, or any other style that renders his songs unclassifiable.

Dungen’s latest album, Skit I Allt—loosely translated as “fuck all this”—is the band’s most focused, largely forgoing Ejstes’ wilder stylistic excursions in favor of insistent, precisely modulated “head music.” Obvious touchstones include early-’70s Pink Floyd and latter-day Flaming Lips. — Onion A.V. Club
