SHOUT FUCKING ALOUD!


Just another record? i think not!!!
This has to be the most anticipated records for me ever! What's so spacial about it you ask? Well this is the first record i put out......


ok ok ok so i didn't put it out but i was supposed to put out the demo tape on my (now dead) record label last year before i realised i had no money! When i realised that i wasnt going to be able to put it out i passed the band over to Seb at Just another day and he did what he dose best and remasterd the tracks and pressed it to a 7"!!!
The stand out band of Russia's Youth crew scene Shout Aloud first caught my attention mid 09 and i was determined to get them heard outside of Russia/europe! my intention was to press the demo tape for a second time and market it to those in the UK and USA so the band would get a wider audience! Now that JAD have taken the reins and have pressed it to Vinyl i feel that the band will be heard by even more people than i could have hoped to do with my small run of tapes!

ON WITH THE VINYL!


so for a change i thought i would start with the covers!! Above we have the regular cover for this release and its pretty damn nice! its a step away from the regular youthcrew style cover of college font or hooded chaps and i think it really works! printed on great quality card and the same old fflawless quality you come to expect from JAD

Next up is the test press cover! This cover has art from Jay Jacoby and was the art for the demo tapes i was going to put out! below i will put the sketch, final sketch and the layout i designed before this version was decided on! my favourite test press cover of all time!

All art by Jay Jacoby demo tape layout by me



80 copies on white stamped with black ink
this is a really nice white with very subtle blue hints from the plates!


90 copies on solid blue stamped with black ink! a great vibrant blue!



I have 3/17 copies on blue/white mixed vinyl stamped with purple ink and numbered on the labels! this is a very pretty transition from the blue to the white!



4/14 copies on blue/black mixed vinyl stamped with purple ink and numbered on the labels! this record looks simply awesome!!! great looking transition!!



MY FIRST SLEEVE MENTION!!!!



FULL JAD COLLECTION!!

Be sure to keep an eye on JAD this year for Shout alouds first EP!!! i cannot wait to see how this band out do themselves!
