Description

Hot off the presses from Jack White's glorious THIRD MAN RECORDS in Nashville, Tennessee is the newest record in the glorious tradition of sumptuous vinyl that has to be seen and heard to be believed!

This is a big one folks, The White Stripes DE STIJL remastered on split red and white vinyl.  Here is the info on these reissues:

"Out-of-print in North America since 2005, the utmost care was taken in presenting these records in the best way possible.

We started by mastering each LP from the original analog master tapes, the first time this process had been used for any of these titles. While extremely labor-intensive, this method ensured that the material was never converted into a digital signal. The result is an audio quality that stiffens the hairs on the back of your neck.

We pressed each record on 180-gram vinyl, again, the first time any of these three albums have been afforded this superior vinyl weight.
For artwork, we started from scratch and went back and tracked down all the source material, working from the original photographic prints to provide the crispest versions possible of these album covers.

From there, we printed the artwork on the deluxe old-style, tip-on sleeves from the wonderful folks at Stoughton Printing in California. This process involves printing the artwork on on sheet of paper (a slick) which is then folded over and hand-glued to a heavy board blank jacket. The difference in the final product of a tip-on sleeve as opposed to a regular, direct-to-board sleeve is akin to the difference between hardcover and paperback books.

Also, for the first time ever, each record comes with a coupon for MP3 downloads of the entire album.

All these factors together makes these versions of The White Stripes, De Stijl and White Blood Cells the DEFINITIVE editions of these albums. These are the versions The White Stripes want people to have for posterity.

And to tickle the collectors, we pressed limited numbers of each title on split-color red and white vinyl."
