Millennial Whites

Find me a band that gets me a similar feeling to a band like Latterman, and I'm in. Like I'm really in, knee deep in it. There is a big place in my heart for any band that shouts it like they mean it, and play with everything they have. This release has not really got the attention it deserves, and with the label that released it going completely under the radar I'm sure thinking it won't get much push from there. So if this post gets one person to check out a bandcamp link, or buy the LP then I think this blog is doing what it should be going. 


As is the way with Secret Audio club there are a bunch of colourways available. This is from the first press and is /108. There is a /1, /6 and of /54 variant all a great deal harder to find than this, but this matches the art nicely and I picked it up from Alan at Different Kitchen so I'm happy to own whatever he hands me. 


I like it when bands correspond the sides of a record other than A//B or 1//2. Side Prank // Side War has always been a personal favourite. Anyone know what that's from? 10 tracks, and I'm sure none of them top 3 minutes and I'm also pretty sure that all of them rage hard. 


So I mentioned that this record was /108. It is also hand numbered on the A-Side centre label. I ended up with number 20/100. I'm not sure why they are only numbered to 100 if 108 exist. Maybe the first 8 are kept un-numbered for band members and the label? In the end I'm sure it doesn't matter too much. 


Finally, here is the insert. I tried to photograph the back, but it looked so blurry every time that I gave up and hopefully you'll pick it up and see for yourself right?

I'm sure Different Kitchen ended up with a decent chunk of this variant, as I think he's the only UK stockist of Secret Audio Club stuff? 

Cheers!
