I'm not sure what it is about the Pummel 7 inch, but it is one of the few newer records that I feel compelled to collect. It is a solid hardcore record from a band out of Boston, the label didn't get stupid with a bunch of different color vinyl options, plus the band has broken up, so I know that this one 7 inch will cover their entire output... essential traits if I want to bother attempting to collect everything for a record.
Picking up the Joey's World cover for the Pummel 7 inch last summer was the tipping point. Prior to that I was content with the two copies that I owned... one on blue and one on white... but with the special cover added to the collection, suddenly I wanted them all. Luckily as I was adding to the collection in Discogs, I saw there was a seller that had the record release version with the lion cover, and I was able to spend more money.
I remember when Pummel played their record release show. Covid was really starting to kick in, and while I really wanted to go to the show, the thought of the two and half hour drive down to Massachusetts and south of Boston was enough to turn me off and keep me home. How the fuck was that six years ago? Oh well, got that record release cover eventually.
