Test Pressing Has Arrived
We have the test pressing back and approved by the band from Nashville's United Pressing. They sent out 4 copies in alluring red sleeves with a simple label denoting side A and side B. The process is straightforward: each of us goes into their respective cave, listens to it on their own home turntable, in their normal listening environment. You listen for cracks and pops, EQ and the like. Does it sound as huge as it should? Bass? High end? And then the final listening occurs all together so we can discuss the finer points of the finer points. In the end it was easily a "go".
United goes back to 1949 and are one of the only major players in record manufacturing in the US. They pressed the first Beatles 7" for god's sake. That's what we're talking about here.
The record cover jackets are manufactured in an entirely separate process by a different company. The art was sent out at the conclusion of the Kickstarter process and should be arriving soon. We're super psyched!
More later!
Thanks again for your support,
Chris, Jason, Andy and Jon
