It's unfortunate that this release is finally here, as it means the end of an enjoyable, year-long organized internet campaign of clever jabs about me stalling on the artwork. Alas, it had to happen eventually! This release has been in the works since early 2009, when talks first started between Arms and Sleepers and The American Dollar about some short-term touring and possibly a split release. Historically, the split release was created on the vinyl format, and it has never been quite as appropriate (or successful) on compact disc; this is a case where the release format itself transforms the execution of the project.
While plans were initially to release on CD and vinyl simultaneously (or in very short succession), i signed on for the vinyl portion and pretty much stalled on it for a little over a year. I really wanted to do it right, and wasn't totally sold on the artwork from the CD version of the release. as the label was on the backburner for a lot of 2010, the project fell by the wayside. Finally, thanks to some newfound source photography from Max Lewis of Arms and Sleepers, i wrapped up all the loose ends in early 2011 and here we are! The vinyl edition contains 3 original songs by each band (as heard on the CD version), plus an exclusive 7th song that was written/performed/recorded in a joint effort by both bands. The artwork is all new, and is printed on a matte-finish gatefold jacket. The first 100 units are pressed on semi-clear vinyl. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
