⭐ Product Highlights

• Blood Records exclusive — crystal clear with coke-bottle clear centre, transparent splatter, and black dust finish; one of the most technically complex and visually striking pressing treatments in Blood Records' catalogue, applied to ZAYN's fifth studio album; limited to 1,000 hand-numbered copies and sold out at source
• Hand-numbered — each copy carries its own unique number within the run of 1,000, making every pressing a distinct artifact from ZAYN's most ambitious vinyl release campaign to date
• The coke-bottle clear centre with black dust finish is one of Blood Records' most sophisticated production techniques — the layering of crystal clear, coke-bottle tint, transparent splatter, and dust creates a pressing with genuine depth and visual complexity that photographs differently under every light source
• Blood Records is widely regarded as one of the finest boutique pressing labels in the world — known for their colour-in-colour and multi-treatment formats, exceptional audio quality, and tightly limited runs; a Blood Records pressing of a major label album is a meaningful statement of collector legitimacy that few artists' vinyl releases receive
• KONNAKOL is ZAYN's fifth studio album and most culturally ambitious — konnakol refers to the art of creating percussive sounds with one's voice, rooted in South Asian musical tradition; for ZAYN it represents "a sound that holds the reverberation of a time before words existed" — a personal and artistic reckoning with identity and heritage that marks a clear creative evolution
• Produced in part by Malay — the producer behind Mind of Mine (2016), ZAYN's record-breaking debut; their reunion anchors KONNAKOL's pop-forward sound in the sonic DNA that first established ZAYN as a major solo force, now matured across five albums
• The KONNAKOL Tour launched May 12, 2026 — ZAYN's first-ever headline arena and stadium run, 30 shows across the UK, Europe, and North America; his highest-profile live commitment since One Direction, driving demand for limited physical editions throughout the campaign and beyond
• ZAYN's fanbase is among the most globally engaged of any pop artist — his signed and limited physical releases consistently sell out within hours of announcement; Blood Records' 1,000-copy cap ensures genuine scarcity on this pressing from day one

💎 Collector Notes

Blood Records pressing a major label album with a 1,000-copy numbered run is an event in itself — and KONNAKOL arriving with their most technically layered vinyl treatment makes this the definitive collector's edition of ZAYN's fifth album. The crystal clear / coke-bottle centre / transparent splatter / black dust combination is among the most visually ambitious pressings Blood Records has produced, and with the KONNAKOL Tour active through November 2026, the demand for physical editions of this album is sustained and growing. A clean, in-hand, numbered copy of a sold-out pressing — available now.
