While I really enjoyed the first two Bloodlet 7 inches back in the early 90's, that was all that I really paid attention to from the band. By the time they released their first full length, I thought they were boring and I stopped paying attention. Hey, maybe now is the time for me to revisit Entheogen. Those first two 7 inches though, are perfect, and I've been kind of obsessing over them the last few years. So when I started to think about what 90's records I wanted to chase for this series of posts, the Smorgasbord 7 inch on red vinyl was near the top of my list.
I originally bought this 7 inch on black vinyl back in the 90's, but memory is a weird thing because if you'd have asked me about it, I would have told you that the copy I owned was on colored vinyl. Like I was certain this was fact. So much that I've had to double check the copy that I had in my collection a few times... even before writing up this post I pulled it out to confirm, yes it's still black vinyl no matter how many times my brain says, "are you sure?" So finally getting this record on red vinyl does a lot for my sanity. There is no longer any question.
Man, these three songs are perfect. So heavy and crushing. As I'm listening to it right now, I'm thinking it easily makes my list of top 7 inches. It is just so good.
500 pressed on red vinyl.
