Eyehategod's 'Confederacy Of Ruined Lives' vinyl pushed back to november
The release date for the vinyl version of Eyehategod's fourth studio album, "Confederacy Of Ruined Lives", has been pushed back to Novemebr 11 from the previously announced October 22 (via the vinyl-only imprint I'm Better Than Everyone Records. Commented the label: "Unfortunately, we had to bump back the release for 'Confederacy Of Ruined Lives' due to an error the pressers made on the jackets. They were initially ordered with a matte laminate finish, which is pretty much one of the best finishes you can get, and it's what we've been using so far on all my releases. However, the pressers made an error and ordered them with a matte varnish finish, and regrettably, this was discovered too late in the printing process. However, the good news is the pressers are working hard to get me the corrected jackets as Fast as possible. Once we receive the corrected jackets, we'll do our best to get these orders out as fast as possible."
Originally issued on CD in late 2000, "Confederacy Of Ruined Lives" will be available in two versions: The main edition will be hand-numbered and limited to 400 on thick black vinyl. There will also be an extremely limited edition of 100 hand-numbered copies on white vinyl with tan and black splatter. Both editions will be encased in a deluxe triple gatefold!
Eyehategod has spent the last two decades at odds with a corrupt music industry, using their music as a proverbial middle finger aimed at everything from government officials to sanctimonious shitheads hiding behind organized religion. They have defied all odds and continue to exist and persist despite personal and professional setbacks, from drug addiction to natural disasters. In the midst of all this turmoil Eyehategod has become the high water mark when it comes to "sludge metal," having birthed rock's unholy bastard feasting on the teat that Black Sabbath and Black Flag built. Countless band's have followed in their fetid footsteps and they continue to inspire bands around the world to this very day.
