Various (Tortoise, Mountains, White Hills etc) - 12.30 Records Toreism

Thrill Jockey is proud to present our very own special contribution to Record Store Day. The deluxe “Records Toreism” LP will be limited to 900 copies and will feature on one side a drawing by Posttypography and a photo silk screen by Crosshair on the other.
The images portray record stores of the future, one if you support the community institutions and the other if you don’t. Yes that is right, the inconvenient truth. The printing and jacket fabrication will be done by Crosshair. Deluxe – all hand made, hand printed loveliness!

The album will also come with two inserts: A zine “WhatsinstORe” with contributions from Ira Robbins (Trouser Press), Stephen Pastel (Pastels, Monorail), Ian MacKaye (Dischord, Evens, Fugazi, Minor Threat), Magas (Reckless Records, Magas), Julie Cafritz (Pussy Galore), Rick Wojeck (Dusty Groove), Nigel (Rough Trade Records London), Danny Beard (DB Records, Wax N Facts), Ron (Jazz Record Mart), Andee Connors (A Minor Forest, Aquarius Records) Josh Madell (Other Music), Bill Ryan (Pier Platters), Bundy Brown (Tortoise, Pullman, Directions, Dusty Groove) and more!
