Cool to have LT on vinyl eventually but was it really necessary to replace the original artwork? New one looks somehow..ugh

| The new art is like horrible flash art in some tattoo shop. Too much color and comic appearance to be taken seriously. |

This, not to mention plastering a goat with a gasmask on the front of an Acheron album is a total douchebag move.

Agreed when it comes to LT and Satanic Victory, the original painting on RotBM was brilliant though.
@galgenstrang: any chance to see the last two Acheron albums on vinyl one day?

Definitely terrible art, but still nice to have.

Just save up and buy the originals for a more exorbitant price. Besides weren't these re-released just a few years ago with the original artwork? |

If I could ever find someone in the US selling Rites I'd pick it up, but inflated prices + international shipping generally puts it out of my range.
As far as I'm aware, Lex Talionis has never previously been released on vinyl, and Rites only the once back in 1991.

| I've seen bootlegs of the latter floating around on wax but assuming they're Brazilian presses I probably wouldn't bother. |

I think there's actually 2 vinyl versions of Rites on Turbo, one with the Gilmore intros and one without.

Did Acheron authorize this artwork? Why was it chosen over something a bit more fitting for the band? That goat-gasmask bullshit is really pushing it... |
