 SLICK LEG +2 more songs PICTURE DISC TEST PRESSING

  Played once, never besmirched freakishly rare TEST PRESSING of this picture disc 7" 45 rpm 3-song EP.  Please understand what you're getting from the pictures.  The test pressing is the white copy with a handwritten number on it.  We're showing you the other single so you can see what it eventually became.  If you win, you'll receive only the white rare test pressing.  If you want a copy of the picture disc (only available in its 3rd pressing) you'll have to act fast and run to the Reptilian Records site because we have less than 20 for sure.  After that, your guess is as good as ours...

This is a serious collectible, ace. Can I call you ace?  This is a 45 that was originally released in 2000 on the great Reptilian Records (it was Mastodon's FIRST RELEASE EVER!) in a limited edition that quickly sold out.  It was never for sale in this condition in stores.  (See the pictures.)  This is an extremely cool item.  A great band who's as hot as a monkey's butt, crazily popular, and amazingly-talented, with a limited edition of their very first release in an edition of less than ten!  It doesn't get much rarer.  It's A TEST PRESSING COPY of THEIR 1st RELEASE, A PICTURE DISC with a completely different picture!!  That's right, there's really NO PICTURE!  It's a beautiful stark white with minimal lines and a little writing.  Ultra-collectible.  Ultra-rare.  Ultra-limited.  As far as we can remember, and count, only 7 of these existed.  This one is yours, if you bid boldly, quickly, and with nimble fingers.

Slick Leg, Thank You For This, Deep Sea Creature

   Collectible 7" 45rpm vinyl record.  You play it on a "turntable". An arcane device that spins your circle of plastic at a constant speed while a diamond rubs against it.  Somehow through the magic of the gods, sound comes out.

To give more info about what you're buying, only a few "test pressings" are ever created, and they're usually made in a small number to supply the band members, maybe one or two important people around them, the record company and someone engineer-y, mayhap.  They listen to make sure all is well, give the OK, and the regular pressings start.  This one was owned by the leader of the Reptilian army, and was played only once.  It's as near mint as you can get.

Today Is the Day, 4 Hour Fogger fans take note!!!!


Good luck to you, my extinct elephant-like animal-loving friend. See our other auctions for more keen rekkids and cds, and keep watching cuz I have things you've wanted since you were 11 and a half.

We'll ship this to you in the U.S. for $2. If you have another plan, email us and we'll run it up a flagpole and discuss the ramifications of said possibilities. What I mean to say is, if you'd like it sent another way, we'll engender a coalition to discuss the realities and...you know what I'm sayin', right?

If you live overseas in an overseas land, we'll send it in an overseas way for some overseas price. No handling added. Just whatever it costs, boss. Thank you, good night.
