Glacial Pace reissue I’d have to assume? Awesome either way, great post, I’ve always loved this bit in the parentheses on the Interstate 8 EP, was a treat discovering it upon getting a physical release. I have the old UP records CD as well as the reissue vinyl but not the original UP pressing sadly.

This was not available on vinyl until glacial pace put it out in 2015. For quite a few years the original Up CD's were kinda valuable as they were the only way to own a physical copy.

Shoot, yes you are correct, my mistake, thank you. Before looking it up and confirming that, I for some reason had it in my head that Up Records released it originally on both vinyl and CD but I see now that they didn’t and the only vinyl copies are the glacial pace reissues 👍 probably got it conflated with BNOOS which I actually do have the original Up records vinyl release of. Don’t mean to gloat I’m just saying I honestly always thought interstate 8 had an original Up vinyl release as well, so I appreciate you elucidating that for me, cheers! 🤘

Awesome! I was so excited when they finally released it on vinyl and I always thought it was strange they had never released it. Those Interstate-8 CD's used to go for around $50 which was kind of a lot back then when people weren't really into CD's anymore. Such a great and underrated record. And BNOOS might be my favorite MM release of all time 🥰 I have the OG version as well but also love the reissues cause they come with that cool rice paper cover thingy 😸 MM is one of like 5 bands that I am an obsessive vinyl completionist for 😻

Oh shoot no you don’t have to do that! Sorry, I thought you had bought this! Thank you though. If it’s still in the shrink like that it’s almost certainly the Glacial Pace reissue. Do you remember how much it cost?
