    Tha band had an original 19th century letterpress that they created some of their sleeve art on. For some reason that I now can't , maybe because I was on a mailing list or I interviewed them or sth .... I have a lovely little book of stamps, created for an imaginary republic and printed on the letterpress. I also have a postcard printed with the same likeness. They are really smart little things.

      The song "Trudge" was also released (just by itself) on a one-sided TDK D30 tape by IPR, with tape case using standard IPR card stock and with a small insert inside with credits/info. Guess I should create an entry for it, eh?
