Super limited to only 500 copies, this live record will surely be out of print in a matter of days. Comes with free download of the entire live album.

Back when we originally pressed this release on wax, Vinyl Collective was still in its infancy. I remember thinking how tough it would be to sell 500 copies of this release, but I loved the record so much, I really wanted to have a copy on [...]

Restock insanity:Russian Circles,Braid,Crimpshrine,Gorilla Biscuits,Karate,more
