Notes
Some copies of the original VMP press came with a 7" that skipped, VMP did a limited repress. The repress can be differentiated from the original on the spine and back cover. The repress lacks print on the spine and corrects the typo on the back cover. The repress also did not ship with the art print and cocktail print.

Edited one year agoI'm wondering if the 2023 Vinyl Me Please store drop is worth its own separate entry. For those wondering what the deal is with it, here's VMP's Andrew Winistorfer from the VMP discord:
"we had 500 copies in generic sleeves due to running out of art back in 2017(?). We made new jackets, updated the obi, and are putting those up as part of HH50
"so it's not really a repress per se, but a jacket update"
Having said that, my newly arrived copy does not have an updated obi or hype sticker on the resealable outer sleeve. But it does include the art print and cocktail card.
So the records themselves are from the 2017 repress, which explains why people are still having skipping issues with the 45, but the sleeve and artwork are all newly manufactured. In my opinion, I think that makes it distinct enough to warrant a new discogs entry but I'm curious to hear what other people's thoughts are.
10/20/23 Update: 2023 restock now has its own entry Main Source - Breaking Atoms -
My repress includes the art print and cocktail print, so the release notes above aren't necessarily accurate. Received Sep '23 after they restocked, and it doesn't have the spine text. No skips, sounds great. -
-
I just received this LP. Side A of the purple 7" skips. No writing on spine. "Music" spelled correctly. If this is a repress, they didn't fix the skip. It's a shame...the rest of the record is perfect.
-
I believe I have the repress but there is print on the spine on my copy. No art print or cocktail recipe but includes the 7 inch and booklet. -
-
Received reprint brand-new in shrink wrap. 7" still full of skips. :-\ Oh well. The LP plays flawlessly and looks beautiful.
