Three songs in under three minutes. Fast, snotty and obnoxious. Damn, this band is fuckin' blast, and to top it off, we get a nice big cock on the front cover.
65 pressed on banana yellow vinyl.

When Bottled Up posted pre-orders for the Truth Inside 7 inch, they also put up the seventh pressing of the Have Heart demo. You know that I can't resist new Have Heart vinyl, so I grabbed each of the new pressings.
The vinyl looks amazing, with each color getting a slight streak of black in them. 100 pressed on gold, 150 pressed on red, and 250 on green.
Even though I have 18 copies of this record, my collection still pales in comparison to Doug's. Man, I've got to step up my game.
When Bottled Up posted that pre-orders were available, I scooped in and grabbed all three pressings. If you want to download the 7 inch before you buy it, you might be able to pick it up HERE. I trust the quality of Bottled Up, so I didn't hesitate.
The most limited of the three was on black vinyl.
Hand numbered on the record labels, and limited to 92.
150 pressed on white vinyl.
250 pressed on purple vinyl.
Of course clear purple vinyl looks best when held up to the light.
Another quality Bottled Up release.
My search for a vinyl copy of Circles was easy enough. REV had it in stock, and I grabbed a copy with my latest order. This record really impressed me, and I think it is a great follow up to their Bridge Nine records. I've never made the comparison before, but on this record, Panic reminds me The Nerve Agents. I can dig it.
Truth be told, Bold had kind of fallen off my radar for a few years. The discography CD, released at the end of 2005, helped wake me back up. Five years later, Revelation finally delivers the vinyl version.
The colored vinyl on this is pretty dark...dark enough that it initially looks like black vinyl. You've got to hold it up to the light to fully appreciate how good it looks.
Everything from the photos, writings from the band, and even the color choices...man, REV did a great job with this release..
First up is the new release, NY Terminator, on Painkiller Records. Decent stuff, but not as strong as the LP. Seems that the white vinyl was sold out when I placed my order, and I ended up with black vinyl. 600 pressed.
While I was at it, I also grabbed a copy of the Sonic Order 7 inch, which was released back in 2009 from High Anxiety and No Idea Records. It has been a long ass time since I've bought anything that No Idea released. This was a nice find. 500 on colored vinyl.
Other than Champion, In My Eyes was one of the first bands that I set out to obtain a full collection for. Hands down, they are one of my favorite bands of all time. I was pretty sure that I had completed my collection years ago, and then Doug went and posted about the Lil Wayne cover on Vinyl Noize. Whoa, what the hell is this? I'd never heard about a Lil Wayne cover. I knew immediately that I wanted it...the question was, how much was I willing to spend? Limited to only 10 for the band and their friends, I knew this wasn't going to come around again for some time. If I truly wanted this, I needed to commit to it in a big way. I was due to receive my annual bonus from work in the upcoming weeks...the bullets were in the chamber, and I pulled the trigger.
When I first starting collecting vinyl around 2005, I was surprised at some of the prices people were paying for records. Mentally, I set a dollar limit for myself. A price that I would not exceed for a single record. Six months into this hobby, an orange vinyl pressing of the Carry On LP pushed me past that limit. Then came the record release pressing of Champion's Promises Kept. A new high was hit last year with the Get The Most test press for the Together LP. Now with this In My Eyes 7 inch, a new bar has been set. And you know what? It felt good.
To help Lil Wayne feel like he is welcome, I've updated the family photo.
