Urashima Appreciation

[mk3ukr]

just got the Controlled Death box and looks impressive, also the reissue of MSBR is very good.
I have many vinyls of the series, too many to mention, and I really appreciate all boxes and compilations (filth), too bad e never released the Italian one!

Not exactly on the subject - received Control Death box today, there is strong smell of glue or fresh paint when you open it. I removed vinyl and left box open for few days. Remember the story with NWW box of VOD?
Urashima is great label, based on quality of their output I buy sometimes releases unknown to me, never regret it

indeed, Urashima has outdone themselves with this absolutely stunning release.

Because Cristiano was working at FNAC in MIlan back then. In fact I got the first vinyls there :)

I'm more than grateful for some of the reissues (some Mauthausen for example), and the label usually does a decent job with these when staying pretty close to original layouts/designs. Haven't really had any problems with the pressings, besides MO's Bloodyminded. Cramming 55+ minutes onto a single LP is never a good idea. It sounds very thin. But then I suppose the original tape ain't no hi-fi experience either, so why complain.
Those box sets though... Kinda look like some cheap-trying-to-look-luxurious gift boxes with lavender scented soap? And I've been over this before, but using comic sans...

...but on the other hand, Ultimate Ambience reissue. Looks good too. If you don't have the original pressing already, don't sleep on it.

I have Maurizio Bianchi lp:s from Urashima. They are about 60 minutes long.  They sound good to my ears. Only few clicks or pops what I hear.

I only wish the liner notes were translated.

And thanks for clarification on the Wilt x Skin Crime lp, lol. I have had several tapes come doused in various liquids and powders, wanted to make sure I wasn't wiping off someones cremains...!
