What the label says:

*Vinyl issue of Genevieve, the reissue of Velvet Cacoon's first full-length.
*Insanely beautifully packaged in a VELVET JACKET with the Velvet Cacoon
logo in black foil.
*Double vinyl set with thick inner-sleeves, limited pressing of 1500
copies only for the world.
*Velvet Cacoon consists of sole songwriter Josh and his dream pop muse
Angela, two souls mesmerized by chemicals and the after-hours. They are
architects of a minimalist sound existing somewhere between experimental
black metal and ambiance.
*The drums and vocals are barely even there, satisfied to lurk under an
oppressive cloak of suffocating heaviness and the seemingly endless,
relentlessly hypnotic crush. Fans of the buzzy drone-y end of the black
metal spectrum will be blown away. And drone freaks will luxuriate in the
absolutely gorgeous final twenty minute track, a slow building lowercase
shimmer.
*Tracklisting: Side 1 01. 1 02. P.S. Nautical Side 2 03. Avalon Polo 04.
Laudanum Side 3 05. Fauna & Flora 06. Genevieve Side 4 07. Bete Noir

About the humble LP:

The LP is the daddy of formats. 12" inches of sheer joy. The LP adds to the glory of the 12" record as it can be played at a slower speed (33rpm instead of the usual 45rpm for singles), consequently more musical joy can be had. Played on a decent deck the sound of an LP is about a million times better than any other format. They look fantastic...... a nice gatefold sleeve with a information rich inner sleeve will keep you entertained for hours even before your stylus has chance to make eye contact with it's 12" prey. An essential part of musical heritage which will never be forgotten. It still does play at a multitude of speeds but as it's recorded to be played slower they normally sound ridiculous sped up. Though double albums can make up for this slight inadequacy by ramming more tunes into your ears for your money. Utterly essential.
