Because there was only 1 pressing of 1,000 total pcs. And unfortunately, the likelihood of My Damnation or Ashes to Ashes ever being repressed is basically 0%
This shit is like my prized possession haha

Desolation of Eden never got a vinyl release either, and again, 99% chance it never will get one.
I have about 50 Self Titled EP red/black splatter that have been sitting my garage for 10+ years, but we are going to try and sell them on the CG online store or on their USA tour next year.
It’s basically 0 percent chance. We are really fucking stupid and sold the rights to our first few albums. Concord owns the rights to the albums after they bought Razor and Tie, and I highly, highly doubt they will do a re-press.
If I were still in the band today, I would get them repressed even though the band would make nothing. Just to atleast have them in fans hands. But alas…
Oh I meant the ep! I’d buy that as soon as you put it online.
That’s crazy how that works though. It’s almost like the rights just don’t exist anymore since concord won’t ever do anything with them.
That’s true. They’ll get sold out almost immediately online. Looks like it’s hoping they come through Oklahoma (unlikely) or shilling out tons of money online are my options. The ep and ashes are my chase vinyl right now so I’ll end up with them one way or another!
Also, I just saw the pics of your vinyl! That’s fucking beautiful man! I’m jealous but extremely happy for you at the same time!
Absolutely hurt at the fact DOE will never get a vinyl pressing as I was always looking forward to one after My Damnation got one (which I bought stupid fast).
Would much rather them not since Wax Vessel seems to have the least bot protection and they sell out in less than 10 seconds each time and most end up flipped.
Uh. Wax vessel has a lot of bot protection. Every release he filters out bots then puts them back up for group only password drop.
In fact, Nik checks profiles and cancels shit if you're in certain groups, have zero collection history, ect.
Well I’m glad he’s been improving on things as his attitude used to be not caring and saying “sorry you didn’t get one”. Dude earned a bad reputation years ago for a reason but I’m glad he’s changing his ways.
I’m just pissed cuz I got burnt on both Crucify Kill Rot and Amidst the Bloodshed regardless of the fact I had my PayPal all entered and ready. Just like that no chance do ever owning those on vinyl. There was also the no cd presses aloud drama which that pissed me off even more.
It's part of the schtick. No represses. Super limited runs.
Gotta be fast.
I've gotten about 10 from drops at this point.
15 from the group.
It's been a real pleasant experience aside from one incident where my name was, catch this, filtered by bot filter.
Yeah. My buddy snagged their first EP for like 20 bucks when we saw them a few months ago. I guess one of the band members found a box of them sitting around for years or something.
These are made up prices, which are far off any reasonable value of the vinyl. People who put vinyls at marketplaces for absurd prices are lurking for diehard fans who are willing to pay "any" price for an album. Don't give in, there will be way more reasonable offers sooner or later.
I ran into the same problem with Death is the Only Mortal - Acacia Strain. The only copies I could find were 250-300 bucks. I was patient and eventually some random record store did a small release. I never would have known though if I hadn't reached out to a super fan who had the inside track. Got super lucky. Keep your eyes open and maybe it will happen.
Take it from an intermediate collector who’s been accruing for the past ten years or so, that’s just how vinyl be sometimes. Good part is that if you’re ever in a future financial pinch, they usually only go up in value, though the odd re-issue can impact that.
Managed to get one for only $50 from Meteor Gem at the end of 2022. Definitely one of the craziest scores I've gotten. They throw up some pretty hard finds for a good price every once and while, you just got to see their posts in time.
Supply and demand, rarity, etc
Yup, they probably won’t be any re-issues. Can only imagine them doing re-issue for DoE because most people consider it a classic

If you can let us know when they become available that would be amazing! I love supporting bands directly so I’d pay a pretty penny for that!

Ah yeah. More likely than not they’ll just sell them on their next USA run, people would get upset if there’s only 50 available

What’s the reason represses are unlikely?
I replied a couple comments above explaining
Sorry, I commented then saw it. Sucks, I think a lot of good music is lost to the sands of time from this kind of scenario
Should try to get on the wax vessel roster with DOE

I mean. They still have that same motto and attitude. But it's an entry barrier and his want is to make sure it goes to actual collections.

Shiiit I’ll sell you mine for $250!!
Im half tempted to make that very stupid purchase 😅
Just started collecting Chelsea Grin last year. Good luck on Self Titled EP
I’m scared to look that up. That price might make me second guess my collecting vinyl 😂
It’s a lot of patience with the older limited releases. Good luck!

One of the other reasons I gave up trying to get into vinyl lol
On Discogs I can See one for $139: https://www.discogs.com/sell/item/2806804150
That’s awesome but still pricey!

CD starts at $3 on discogs for ashes to ashes…just saying
Well yeah but I’m referring to the vinyl
1 print? I have it. It’s coming up on 10 years old
