"Thin Wrist Recordings presents the expanded and definitive double LP
edition of Kevin Drumm's
groundbreaking first album, originally released in 1997. Featuring some
of the most fiercely abstract and organic guitar work ever heard,
Drumm's debut is both jarring and completely alien. Dubbed by some as
the greatest prepared guitar record ever recorded it prefigured (and
continues to trump) almost an entire decade or so of contemporary
"out" music that would follow. Beautiful and completely essential.

This edition includes an entire fourth side of previously unreleased
recordings from Drumm's personal archive, all recorded in the same era
as the original album. It also includes entirely new artwork featuring
the body of the actual guitar used to record the
album.


The album comes housed in a heavy textured gatefold jacket and
includes two full color inserts. High quality 2 x 180 gram vinyl pressed at Pallas Germany and mastered by Rashad Becker at D&M Berlin. Digital download included "

Ouch - very pricey. Glad I gripped this one on CD.
Bet it's nice though.

I'm interested in this as well, but I don't have a turntable, and I have no interest in buying one. Why did it have to be vinyl, seriously...

[mudd]

because the cd is still in print?

presumably the record will sell out and then maybe kevin will post the new material on his blog.

i think he meant the wiese collab. that is LP only, right?

EDIT - oh, and to answer the question, i am sure it's LP only for a combination of aesthetic reasons and because vinyl is easier to sell these days.

[mudd]

oh good call, not reading so carefully. check out 'the french record' for drumm and wiese together, though not really in duo.
