Description

Birchville Cat Motel / Ashtray Navigations "Stars Arc On Their Gigantic Skyward Axis" / "In Praise of Small Agonies" picture disc lathe cut 8"
Incredibly rare lathe cut 8" picture disc record on the Celebrate Psi Phenomenon label from the mid 1990's. BCM were always a little better than most of the peers they were lumped with, great gobs of glacial drone. A handful were made, I wouldn't guess more than 50 as they were expensive and were hand cut in real time by Peter King manufacturing in New Zealand (each record played from start to finish as it was cut, no "stamping" process). Playable on any stereo, though debate about amount of degradation per play exists, this has never been played.

vinyl: m- ** Hand cut in real time by Peter King manufacturing in New Zealand (each record played from start to finish as it was cut, no "stamping" process). Playable on any stereo, though debate about amount of degradation per play exists, this copy has been played no more than once.
