 SEPTIC DEATH
" Need So Much Attention... Acceptance Of Whom "
(1984 original Pusmort Records release, Pusmort 0012-01 clear/blue swirl vinyl)


12" LP, the debut Septic Death release on Pusmort Records. 
LIMITED EDITION OF ONLY 275 COPIES!
THE RAREST OF THIS SEPTIC DEATH VINYL.
This was a special edition of the original pressing.  A mail-order only colored vinyl pressing from 1984, limited to 275 LPs, with an insert signed by Pushead.
It is also a lyric sheet.
Plus, there's a second insert with info and art.
AND
here's a really cool thing.  A postcard, from Paul at Pusmort Records, handwritten to the guy we bought the record off of, on an original Pushead postcard in glossy black and white, and there's a Pushead stamp on the other side.  Very cool.

The first Septic Death release (1984) is also the very first Pusmort release (0012-01) and showcased a great collection of art. The front cover by Pushead, the back cover and Side B label by Chet XNO Darmstaedter, and the colored vinyl lyric sheet was illustrated by Pushead. There are a couple of different pressings.  Initially there was also a colored vinyl version available only through mail-order. The initial batch was numbered out of 275 copies. Even though no two colors of vinyl were exactly the same, there are 3 categories in which they fall. The majority of them were mostly clear (pictured below). There were also a great deal that were 'Okra' (pictured below). The rarest are those that are almost completely one solid color (green, blue, or clear). The colored vinyl version also came with a different 2-sided lyric sheet which was numbered and signed by Pushead.

See the website for the colors.  Yours is clear vinyl with slight blue swirls, but it's mostly clear.  One of the rarest vinyl pressing versions.

Yellow record labels on each side.


You're bidding on an original 1984 copy of the debut SEPTIC DEATH vinyl LP.  It is one of the special mail-order-only hand-numbered records.
It comes with a signed and numbered insert by PusHead.
Another insert.
A postcard handwritten from Pusmort Records, Pushead's own label.
And one of the rarest editions of the vinyl colors.  Clear with slight blue swirls.

THE VINYL LOOKS TO BE EX+/NM-.  The cover is EX with some edgewear and a couple of corner dents, with one slight discoloration on the white part of the back cover, but all-in-all it's a framable piece of art.  They changed the cover in the future, and the colors changed from pressing to pressing.
The inserts are all EX.  Pushead's autograph/signature/signed insert & # at least EX.

As you can see in the above link, there is one person who has one for sale, not with all the same inserts, and they don't claim to even have the signed numbered insert along with it, for 100 euros, which is well over 100 dollars.  I think there's another listed on ebay for around $400 or so.



WIKIPEDIA & OUR MOM SAYS:
Septic Death was a hardcore punk band formed in Boise, Idaho by Pushead. The band played only a few shows during its active years (1981 to 1986), mostly in Boise, Idaho, though records continued to be released up to 2006. Pushead was the main singer, and he designed the band's album covers.
Pushead (a.k.a. Brian Schroeder) is an artist, record label owner and writer within the hardcore punk and heavy metal field. He has created artwork for Metallica, and The Misfits, and designed a pair of Nike SB Dunks. His record label, Pusmort Records,released albums by Poison Idea and Final Conflict

Septic Death (Boise, Idaho) was a hardcore punk band fronted by artist Brian "Pushead" Schroeder on vocals. Septic Death's music became a major influence on bands like Integrity, Citizens Arrest, Infest, and many other bands tied to the hardcore punk, thrashcore, crust punk etc. scenes. The band played only a few shows during its active years (1981 to 1986), mostly in Boise, Idaho.

Along with Schroeder, the band consisted of Paul Birnbaum on drums, Mike Matlock on bass, and Jon Taylor on guitar.

"Septic death's songs deal mainly with fear and paranoia, the mental state of a person and how it functions. A few songs deal with current issues, but those are so depressing just to read the paper, why bring more attention than a song? If you seek to bring out solutions or terror to open eyes of fear, that is well constructed. But just complaints do not have meanings of knowledge. Strength away from fear or the acceptance of fear and what it creates makes it wiser for the mind... not the person who sings the song he writes but lives in terror of them. Open the eyes and let the enjoyment in; the awareness is essential.(extracted from Maximum Rock'N'Roll)."

"...religions were formed to create a god, and god was created, so you wouldn't fear death, and the reality of dying is SEPTIC DEATH (extracted from MRR)."

Fans of Septic Death such as Dwid Hellion (of Integrity) often characterized their sound as "horror hardcore" (as stated in Integrity's "Sliver In The Hands Of Time") solely due to the lyrics and content of their songs.

See the photo(s).  Sorry about my hand in the shots, (if it is), but I try to NEVER LAY THE VINYL DOWN ON ANYTHING, unlike lots of sellers, who FREAKIN' lay records down on tables and things to photograph them!  We give them all the very clean hand or WHITE GLOVE TREATMENT, as you see in the photos, and take the pics with someone holding the vinyl in the air, never touching it, pulling it carefully from its sleeve.  Whatever we sell you is going to be in the best shape possible. We're all collectors and know that other collectors appreciate the extra mile.  I mean, there may be a smoker in the building, but he doesn't blow it into the records, and we handle them as if they might explode! (Although they won't, postal person, we promise)

Have a good time bidding. Maybe you can get it for a steal. Good luck. Hopefully you'll get it for a good price. If you have any questions, fire 'em at us!

We will ship this ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD. 

ORDERS OVERSEAS, ESPECIALLY TO EUROPE (AND ESPECIALLY ESPECIALLY GERMANY) ARE SOMETIMES TAKING A RIDICULOUS AMOUNT OF TIME.  SOME VINYL IS TAKING UP TO A MONTH TO ARRIVE.  IF YOU CAN TAKE THIS INTO ACCOUNT AS A POSSIBILITY, GO AHEAD AND BID.  IF, ON THE OTHER HAND, YOU ARE IN A FOREIGN COUNTRY AND ARE NOT PREPARED TO WAIT FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME, PLEASE DO NOT BID. And I don't mean that in an angry way, I mean it in a "we keep getting people in Germany and other countries overseas sending us angry letters 2 weeks after the auction ends, or starting a dispute over a record that is simply slow in reaching them because of the international overseas mail service.  So what I'm saying is this: if you're not feeling patient, please don't take it out on us if the record doesn't arrive quickly. We'll gladly take out insurance, or give you a tracking number, or whatever you want if you feel like paying extra to ensure that your record doesn't get lost. But if you just pay the basic postage and your record doesn't get there for 4 weeks, don't shoot the messenger.
