Blue Galaxies

Another Christmas post, another late favourite from last year. I was blown away by the 'Spike & Wave' 7'' from 2014, and this new 4 track is picking up right where Kindling left off. 


Kindling - Galaxies - No Idea Records - 1st Press - Opaque Blue /? 

There were 3 colour options here: Translucent Blue, Translucent Green or this. Although no pressing info is around at present (although with it being a No Idea release I'm sure Alan will know!) I can safely assume this was the most common as it's the one I've seen floating around more. The centre label matching the art is a cool touch here, moons and stuff. On their previous 7'', the polysleeve came stickered similar to the one in the top right of the sleeve, although this isn't a sticker at all and just part of the artwork.


Back Cover // B- Side 

4 tracks sit on a single sided 12''. The B-Side is a single silent groove though I haven't dropped a needle on this side to find out. All variants were pressed onto 150-gram vinyl and it sounds great! 


Photocopied A4 insert with handwritten lyrics sit on this side.

This release is great, and I've really enjoyed picking up a bunch of No Idea releases this year as my appreciation for that label grows. This year is kicking off for them with a new Chris Wollard LP, so it's safe to assume you will see that here at some point! 

Cheers
