AIAC test presses for sale at the label bandcamp. I curse you and this board... Stop foolin around. You know you want this. You 're a superfan. You even made a thread comparing first press inserts for Pete's sake. You have a litter of tests for the other pressings and you're in direct contact with band members. It's only a matter of time. I, too, slept on this and now I must scour the earth for a white one. I love you man and I love this board. That's my rant for the day now I'm off to my shitty job. PS I'm waiting for my first press in the mail as we speak so I can vote in your poll too |

I promise I WILL send you that CD!!
And it's on me lol
Also I am now an owner of the entire set of these new AIAC represses.
Thanks for that Nico...
I picked up that test press off the band camp along with the black and green vinyl (it said white was sold out and yellow was REV only) so I paid for the 3 records and headed off to the REVHQ to pay probably equal amount ($5 for the record and $49.99 postage) for that yellow, thinking I will pick up the white vinyl on ebay.
But as I was opening REV's webstore a big Juju up the Mountain appeared before me and gave me the brilliant idea of emailing the paypal address from that Atomic record label asking if they happened to have any white and yellow left lying around. A bit later a lad emailed me back saying that yes, they do have some and for an extra tenner they will throw one of each into the package at no extra postage. So there. Entire new set coming my way. Thrilling.

I had debated ordering one of these AIAC re-presses some time ago but as you couldn't pick which version you wanted I elected not to. A week or two later these posts came out talking about the label selling the re-press test presses and what have you I decided to order one not caring that the white had sold out and that I would probably get a green cause there was 'some left'. Throw in that the shipping to Canada was actually very reasonable. SOLD. Fast forward to today. The package was shipped and at my door in 4 days. I noticed the colour of the ep was very light when I cracked it open. The re-design of the cover, while odd, looked quite decent actually; this may be due to the high quality packaging and thick cardstock used on the cover. I love good packaging. But when I took out the ep I saw right away they had sent me a white copy, but not white, more like a cream. Then after totally removing the sleeve I saw there was massive yellow and a few black streaks on it. Needless to say I guess I lucked out and got another 'transition press'(a term I only learned of since joining this board). To go along with the Civ, UC, Chain lp on clear with white streaks.. Anyways, photos are attached and kudos to Atomic Records.   |

That looks really cool but until we see a lot more of these we won't know if this is a regular thing or not.
All the yellow ones I've seen so far were streaky so there's a good chance all/most of the white ones aren't really white either.
In any case I am curious as to what will arrive.

I've seen a few with streaks and a few without so they're probably pretty common either way. Mine has a little yellow splotch...  Oh what the heck... here's my test with the other 2 colors and the Flux! press. The green has some white streaks too...  |

What's the name of the font on the og record?
They should have never changed that. It somehow goes with the band's name in my head now.
