I bought what was supposedly a sealed original copy of this album but instead the CD is white and the back cover looks like a 2003 Scandinavian repress. Can anyone tell me if this is a bootleg based on the pictures shown here?

It's a repress. You'll notice the Plastic Head group logo over the barcode, they're the official distributor for these represses.

No, it is almost certainly a bootleg because there is absolutely no label code, rights society etc on the disc, it being white and does not match any of the versions on Discogs makes it look like a bootleg. Falsely advertised as a first press even when sealed you could see it wasn't the original.

I have this 1992 copy of "Descend into the Absurd" by Fleshcrawl and the black side of the CD and the Matrix and Barcode match up to the Discogs specs. But there is a tiny difference in my copy to the version listed on Discogs in the top right hand corner of the back cover as shown below. Is this simply a variant of the first press, a different version altogether, or a fake? Response would be greatly appreciated.

Well if you were so sure about it then why did you ask in the first place? If you're doubting about the disc itself then matrix and SID codes are a good place to look. Can't help you with the Fleshcrawl disc.

Cancer - Death Shall Rise on Megart - is this a bootleg? The disc artwork always looked really weird to me, like home printer style. Sorry I don't have a picture. The booklet says printed in Canada but the disc itself is made in Colombia. I looked up Megart here on MA and they only have four releases total and the other three are unofficial. Can anyone verify?

The worst part is you never know if someone might have bought a cd from them and is reselling it from the US without disclosing this info. I am super wary of buying stuff now that is also selling in Russia and Greece. (on ebay at least)

At least the Polish sellers tend to disclose bootleggy info.

Hails, it is a later re-press. The difference is, that your copy only has an RTD (Rough Trade Distribution) Number and the firstpress also has a SPV Number. At some time around 1995 I think it was that Black Mark switched exclusively to Rough Trade, you can find this "phenomenon" with the missing SPV number on various re-releases (Bathory, Cemetary, Edge of Sanity, Flashcrawl and others). In most cases, the matrix numbers are exactly identical, in a few cases (e.g. Edge of Sanity - The Spectral Sorrows there is an additional IFPI number, hardly readable).
I think this answers your question, so your copy is legit, but a later re-press.

Looks perfectly legit, I used to have that version and it looked exactly like that.

Thanks for that, I'm damn annoyed now as I paid 70 US dollars for it, waited three weeks for it and turns out it isn't the first press I wanted. Thanks again, gonna tell the seller.

Big problem is that a lot of sellers have no clue about the edition they are selling. It might not be on purpose but lack of knowledge

A lot of people don't realise the little details between different pressings.. they just figure it's not an obvious reissue so it's "first press" when a lot of the time it's a repress with only very minor details, or even the only discerning factor is a different matrix on the disc.

Cemetary first pressing was distributed by Rough Trade. There is no SPV version.

Any old Sinister experts? WTF is that TIS above the logo, and why can't I find anything about this "version" anywhere on-line? Was this album known for having somewhat shoddy photos in it?

EastWest was a label/distributor, they probably put their logo on everything they press.

https://www.musik-sammler.de/media/396208/

Not sure that all the numbers match up but you have a German version. This picture has the same logo. It's possible the exact press you own hasn't been categorized by anyone online yet?

I don't know what you mean by shoddy photos - the quality or what?

I saw that version on discogs but everything else by that label is bootlegs or unknown. This says licensed but everything's user-submitted on discogs so who knows where they got that from? I was hoping someone would know more.

Thanks for the info, just never seen this TIS logo on any NB stuff. By shoddy I mean the overall quality, inside photo is poor but it may simply be what the band submitted to the label to use.

It's hard to tell from your photo because photos of cd artwork always seem to come out grainy like your picture looks. I have the US version with the same pictures and it looks fine to me quality-wise but it's hard to compare the actual insert to a pixelated picture. Maybe someone else can compare and tell you for sure.

Hey all.

I'm not exactly sure if this is the correct place to post this but I just bought Atheist's Piece of Time LP from Season of Mist (2013 reissue, black vinyl). I noticed that the last song 'No Truth' on Side B was incomplete, and that only the first minute seemed to play. Has anyone had a similar issue or is it just maybe my copy?

Marquee Records is a well known label specializing in reissues of old metal albums, so the odds are this is legit.

Yeah, but still... There's no word on it anywhere, and that album should be a high profile reissue so you can see where I'm coming from with my doubts.

Marquee Records facebook page has pictures of it advertising it:
https://facebook.com/pages/Marquee-Reco ... 6115158939

I see where you are coming from. If you check Vic Records homepage you'll notice the recent reissue of The Experience of Horror isn't announced. Only on the Facebook page. But if you search on the label site you can buy it.

Hope this helps.

Does lack of IFPI code of any sort mean that it's a fake CD? I've been Googling that question for about 2 hours and I can't seem to find a straight answer to that.

The reason I ask is that I have Garden of Shadows - Heart of the Corona and the only info it has is the matrix and catalogue number (POLIMEX DISC L091 XRR-002). You can see it on the inner ring of it and you can see it on the front of the CD and you can also see it on the back of the CD Also, it has the "compact digital audio disc" just awkwardly stamped on the ring.

I just want to know if it's a fake or if it's just endearingly crappy-looking.

I took some pics: http://imgur.com/a/2jFTb

Not necessarily. Ideally all presses should have both mould and master SID codes (the one in the plastic ring and the one in the matrix ring of the disc) but not all of them do for some unknown reason. Though I don't have a copy of that disc it does look fine to me, but anyone who has it can better confirm it. Since it's a semi-expensive disc I'm not going to tell you with 100% certainty that it is without knowing for sure. ;)

It's just not something that's an industry-wide standard, a lot of plants in Europe still don't use mould codes. I got a copy of the latest Sammath CD not long ago and it has no mould IPFI codes to be seen, and that's definitely not a bootleg because I got it directly from a band member :lol: Plus they didn't even get introduced until the early/mid 90s so it's a crapshoot with anything from before then.

Alright, thanks for the replies! I'll continue to accept it as genuine. I was just really unsure about the IFPI thing.

Got two Raven CDs recently, from different sellers. They may be bootlegs but I'm not sure. Any help is greatly appreciated!

One is The Pack is Back. According to the Archives, the only CD version was issued on Mayhem in 1998, which has two bonus tracks from the Mad EP. The CD I got has no Mayhem logo, just Atlantic Records. The tray card doesn't have the bonus tracks listed on it, just the original track listing. However, the disc itself lists the two bonus tracks. The disc itself also has a "bleed" spot on the red ring around it; it literally looks like the paint either melted and dripped a little leaving a space between the black and red rings, or was attempted to be re-painted on.

Also of note is the tiny and grainy lettering on the back of the tray card (can't read most of it), and the catalogue number, which matches the original vinyl release except for the final number being 2 instead of 1. However, the matrix catalogue number on the disc adds a numeral to the catalogue number (816929-2 instead of the 81629-2 everywhere else).

The other is Wiped Out, the 1999 Neat Metal CD reissue. This one has three bonus tracks, which are listed on the tray card but not on the disc itself, where only the original album tracks are listed. There is no catalogue number on the disc itself, just the barcode number. The back of the booklet is grainy and all letters are tiny and unreadable (the track list cannot be read). Additionally, the back of the booklet has both the Neat Records logo and the R/C Revisited logo, but R/C is not seen anywhere else on the disc or booklet/tray card). There are some R/C CD reissues from an unknown date listed on the archives.

Both discs have a small triangular "lump" or etch protruding from the plastic inner ring and onto the disc proper. Neither disc has any etched numbers/letter on the inner plastic ring. Please advise if any photos would help. Thanks all!

^Those both sound incredibly dodgy, especially if there's no text in the matrix area and weird print oddities and lumps on the disc, actually you should upload pics of those because I want to see what exactly they look like.

Does anyone know if this is an official version or not of Atrophy's Socialized Hate?

Looks very sketchy, not only the disc but the fact that they got the year it was released wrong (1998) when it was correct on legit versions (1988).

ugghh..not what I wanted to hear. I was hoping if it was a boot that discogs would have listed it as such.
