Trap Them - "Darker Handcraft" - Prosthetic Records, 2011

This came in the mail yesterday and it's a perfect example of how to package a vinyl release.  This is the newest release by one of my favorite bands, Trap Them.  It's called "Darker Handcraft" and the vinyl edition was released on Prosthetic Records yesterday, March 1st, 2011 (the CD/digital formats will be released on March 15th).  This is the 1st pressing in gray, limited to 100 copies.  





 Amazing artwork by Justin Bartlett.  Produced by Kurt Ballou.




Sturdy cardboard, gatefold cover.



This album is a total rager and I think that it's their best work.  They finally sound like a cohesive unit; this lp has a groove hinted at on their last release, the "Filth Rations" ep on Southern Lord.  Much of this has to do with the addition of Chris Maggio (ex-Coliseum) as their permanent drummer.  Bang your head!
