We are now ready to present to you the vinyl edition of the “Altar” album. This very special triple-vinyl version features completely over the top packaging that alot of time, care, effort, love and $ went into! The heavy cardboard gatefold jacket has a 14 page color booklet within as well as a special third pocket (on the right hand pocket of the jacket) that contains the bonus 3rd Lp. The booklet features exclusive imagery photos, and liner notes from Kim Thayil (Soundgarden)! Each of the three records come in specifically designed black (even on the inside) innersleeves. The 3rd LP “bonus track”: “Her Lips Were Wet With Venom / (Satanoscillatemymetallicsonatas) is a 28+ min. epic journey that is a result of both sunn 0))) and boris with Dylan Carslon (EARTH) engaged in a completely improvised, no holds-barred,mind - “altering” drone nirvana. Dark, powerful and ultimately up-lifting!

Mailorder customers will be receiving the 180 gram baby blue version. The vinyl weight for all colors is 180 gram. The first 1000 mailorder copies will also have a Altar poster. Please be assured that we are going to take the utmost care in packaging these in hopes that they will arrive to you in pristine condition. The record will be sealed in a plastic bubble envelope (15″x15″) then two cardboard pads (”14″x14″) will be placed around the bubble envelop (taped to hold in place) then placed in a heavy duty cardboard box( 14×14x2). Again… alot of planning has gone into making sure customers receive this as it should be: PERFECT.
