Here’s what they’re offering: An “Unrated Special Edition” vinyl packaged in a deluxe gatefold old school tip-on jacket with printed insert. It will be made available on jungle camouflage vinyl and clear/transparent green vinyl.
The variants are inserted randomly and are limited to #500 copies each worldwide. They come sequentially foil numbered (2 series of /500). Included is the complete original 1981 soundtrack and four extra bonus tracks.
From OWS: “After receiving several threats we decided not to post or share the artwork for the limited unrated edition online or through our press channels. We also received phone calls from Tipper Gore’s people and the BBFC to let us know they will do everything in their power to have the record banned. Four North American printers refused to print the sleeve after protests from their employees, stating ‘never before have we seen such acts of savage brutality’. After a long search we found a plant in chuang-zin, a rural province in China who agreed to print it. When it landed on the desk of Joseph H. Wryght (Light In The Attic’s Senior President) he demanded all LITA logo’s were to be removed immediately. Please take note that neither OWS or LITA can be held responsible for the traumatizing shocks the artwork can cause. If you can’t handle it : please purchase the regular vinyl version that has ‘cleaner’ graphics. We don’t know how long we will be able to keep this version in stock before it get seized by authorities. Beware and be warned.”
The “Regular Edition Vinyl” is pictured here and has completely different artwork than the unrated edition. Packaged in a deluxe gatefold old school tip-on jacket with printed insert. Comes with OBI STRIP. Pressed on classic black vinyl.
Limited to #1000 copies worldwide. Included is the complete original 1981 soundtrack and four extra bonus tracks.
