Gama Bomb : Speed Between the Lines on red vinyl

This recently popped up on my Discogs alert email and I managed to buy a brand new unopened copy from a seller in my country. 

I'm very pleased to have it as I already have a clear/splatter copy of the recent Sea Savage and I hope that in time I can score a copy of Untouchable Glory too (which may be my favourite of their full-length albums). 

It's apparently one of 250, it was plastic-wrapped, which I slit to open the gatefold and get at the record. It's such a pleasure to put a virgin record on the turntable and hear nothing but the needle drop. This is a heavy chunk of vinyl too and the sound is amazing. 

A real record like this is a much more special thing to have than a CD and certainly more so than the digital recording (however clean that sounds). It feels so good to be able to buy new and newish records on this format. I hope this isn't a passing fad and that more bands do it. 

If you love their sound (and what's not to love?) then you get 35 minutes of it. They're nothing if not consistent. There are some stand-out songs with quality lyrics; 666teen is my favourite.
