Repress or just reissue?

Re:
Interpol - Antics

Of this three disc set, it was felt that disc one was a repress.
The version that it was felt to be a repress of (released about 5 years ago), was linked in submission notes. Pretty sure there are other examples.
It was not felt to be a repress by all .
Opinions sought.

Many thanks.

Theres several others of that GZ Runout going back to 2016 Interpol - Antics
None of these should be represses as they are not confirmed to be from the original master tape and they've never been to referred as represses. I dont know if the 2016 which is the earliest one I can find, is a repress of something else.
Just a reissue imo

The new packaging makes it a reissue.
Repress as well? Not sure.

from the original master tape

Is not the term that RSG §6.17.2 uses, it refers to master disc.

Agreed. It obviously comes from the 2016 pressing due to the higher galvanoplasty letters and the GZ ID.

The GZ Media job number 129390E comes from c. 2015/16, so disc 1 is a repress.

The GZ job number 289305E is from this year, so discs 2 and 3 are a new cut (possibly their first time on vinyl).

So Repress should be added to disc 1.

Yea at the time i wrote above i didnt know what the master disc meant. Im just not if these were not just left over. If it was purposely repressed from the stampers though for these then the other reissues last year should also be all represses.

I would tag the entire thing as a reissue since it's an anniversary edition. Technically some parts might be a repress, but they're part of a new issue, not an additional run of the previous reissue.

"the other reissues last year should also be all represses."
Agree. Like this:
Interpol - Antics?
or this:
Interpol - Antics?
But let's not change the subject, stay on the submission in question for now.

"Technically some parts might be a repress, but they're part of a new issue, not an additional run"
Doesn't matter. The fact that the disc has been coupled here with 2 (new) discs, doesn't stop it being a repress in and of itself.
"I would tag the entire thing as a reissue"
Already done.

Thanks

Not the stampers – they would be melted down after each pressing run to be re-used. It is the master discs, which were cut on a lathe, to which the job numbers are added and from when represses are derived when new stampers a made from the same master discs. Sometimes master discs are retained by a pressing plant after the pressing run is completed – they might have a policy of keeping them for a certain number of years in case they are needed again, or the label might indicate that they want them to be kept as they anticipate represses. In other cases, new master discs are cut when the label wants more copies.

Any copies containing the same runout etchings from subsequent pressings are represses of the original pressing run with those etchings – which might not be the original pressing of a release, as in the case of this GZ-pressed reissue from 2016. So any pressings from later than 2016 that contain the 129390E job number are represses.

I did wonder about moving the Reissue tag from the album disc to the Box Set line as the release as a whole appears to be a reissue of the album, albeit in an expanded form. Someone with more knowledge of how this edition was marketed – as an expanded reissue or as a package of the album plus a (separate) live album – would have to make that decision.

My error, the reissue tag is only applied to disc one currently, not to Box Set.
The recordings on discs 2 & 3 were not previously issued as far as I know (except very recent files/non-physical).

The 20th anniversary edition was marketed in three physical packages. Only this one containes the live recordings.
The music in the other two editions were the basic 10 track studio album.

Personally, I would not be in favour of referencing discs 2 & 3 as reissue.

+1

After one month, general consensus that disc 1 is a repress.
Will amend.

Thanks all, for engagement on this subject.
