A friend bought me my pink clam copy from the event at the RFH and got it signed by John at the merch desk. I'm seriously -sadly - thinking of looking to sell it (alongside my 1st pressing, white Psychick Bible signed by Gen, PTV 'Pure Acid' poster, my Cookie Mueller, Jack Smith, & Burroughs 'Hanuman books', my original Seefeel records on Too Pure etc) to get me through an employment dismissal appeal but genuinely have no idea what any of it might be worth or the best way to sell it. Any ideas sincerely welcomed as I neither want to price myself out of the market or get exploited myself

It is a fantastic listen at both 33.3 and 45 rpm. First time i played it was on the "incorrect" speed - amazing dark ambient drone record. LOL! - then I found out that it is supposed to be at 45. Amazing!

Totally worth the vinyl--mine is clear with pink splatter. From dusty old speakers on up, this album probably just gets further and further to the edge, piercing the mind and staying there. What the hell kind of crazy keyboards are they playing?! I guess that's the kit of Drew McDowell and Thighpaulsandra.
The presentation of the physical copy is extremely glossy--a little more dry than the body-horror drug anatomy stuff Coil usually employed, but very geometrical and suggests the band's themes of nature, mathematics, and most of all coils (crossbred with ferris wheels). -

Does anyone know what's happened with the 2022 official reissue? Thighpaulsandra offered copies on his own site, perhaps prematurely, for order (People have received physical copies). It's a Dais Records release, Its not listed here, Dais haven't offered it for sale yet?

I think anyone who purchases this knows what they are purchasing. The CD or the internet archive is a considerably better source and this release benefits from a clean sound. This bootleg does not provide this. That said, I prefer LPs. I prefer the experience of setting out time to listen to an LP and this release allows me to listen to something I really enjoy in my preferred format. It is a bootleg, it is a little noisy and the sound quality is inferior to a digital copy. Bottom line, if I lost my copy, I would buy another.
