[mike]

(sorry if there's been a thread like this in the past)

i have the first press myself but i saw this:



on ebay. anyone know which press it is? did the 3rd and 4th look the same?

i like rob fish artwork so i want to get that one too.

i asked jamie about this at the show, and he said this is the third pressing

[mike]

ah.

someone should post a photo of the second press then!



(thanks for the records, j!)

You can still buy those from insound.

[mike]

i just want to see what they look like.

[pans on sticks]

i think 1st & 2d pressing looked the same except 2d pressing copies were not silkscreened (=didn't have those fancy skulls printed on it)

I have a copy of the second pressing. I bought it during last year's tour. It does have a silkscreened cover. I don't know how to post a picture but you should be able to view it at the following link:

It's stashed in the Xiu Xiu folder....

And yes, it is autographed by Jamie and Caralee!

As far as i know it's...

1st pressing: silk screened covers (they don't look as good as you might think). Ltd to 200.
2nd pressing: photocopied covers (naked guy on the front). Ltd to 200.
3rd pressing: birds and what not on the cover (the first picture posted above). Ltd to 400.

All are sold out now. A 2nd pressing copy with a silk screened cover is news to me, I wouldn't mind that signed copy of his though
