FAQ

What does “New & factory sealed” mean?
The record is unplayed and still in the manufacturer’s original shrink wrap, so it carries no Goldmine grade.

Is this the original pressing?
No. The album first came out in 1998 on Earache. This record is the limited 2023 Record Store Day edition on purple vinyl.

What is new on this album?
Steve Tucker joined as singer and bassist. Invocation Of The Continual One reuses music the band had written back in 1984, and Pete Sandoval contributed two instrumentals of his own.
