Description
*I am currently selling a collection of Heavy Metal and rock LPs, predominantly from the late 70’s to the early 90’s but with the odd outlier thrown in. All well looked after and some real rarities. I combine shipping and always remove the vinyl from the sleeve before packing and posting. Where anything other than a generic white inner is present, the vinyl is always placed in a brand new white inner to preserve the original. Brand new ‘clear glass’ plastic sleeves are added to all LPs. I describe items accurately as I know how disappointing it is to receive a much anticipated record where flaws have been glossed over or gone unmentioned. I try to listen to each record before describing it but if I don’t have time I will listen to selected parts to gauge the level of background noise and I will always listen to any passages where there are surface marks to judge the impact these have. I always give positive feedback after payment so the customer is able to give feedback purely judged on the service once they have received the item. If you are unhappy in any way I will refund with no questions asked. Thank you for your interest in this listing and please check out my other records.*

Roadrunner records RO 8900-1
This is the original 1996 vinyl pressing from Roadrunner in Europe. This was the only original vinyl pressing of this album due to the proliferation of CD as the favoured format during the mid 90s. Therefore not many were pressed and this comes up very rarely.
The seminal last album to feature the Cavalera brothers, over time this has become regarded as a hugely influential release regarding the way heavy metal headed post thrash.
The sleeve is in VG condition. It would be excellent but for a seam split in the top of the sleeve and a bump on the spine corner. Otherwise it is a vibrant and attractive copy.
The original glossy inner is also in great shape but also has a discreet split opposite the opening edge.
The vinyl appears excellent and plays really well with very little background interference at all - a really great production on this album. It has a warp which becomes evident when it is spinning but this doesn’t cause any problems at all.
Overall a solid copy of a sought after original vinyl pressing.
