_______________

"SLM △" in the runout etching indicates that the lacquer disc was processed at, and the metal parts used to manufacture the record were made at Sheffield Lab Matrix.

Runouts are etched, except for the Artisan logo and the Allied logo (ɑ) which are stamped.

This release is similar to Alpha but has no additional SP etched in runouts and not EAST embossed in label side B.

Some copys come with a hype sticker
