I've been speaking with Undergroove Records about this amazing and legendary album getting the full gate-fold vinyl reissue treatment. They say they really want to do it but would need to guarantee at least 130 sales to make it worthwhile. In my opinion, this is a massively underrated record that deserves more attention. Would you buy this on vinyl?
Would absolutely buy. Considered looking into re-releasing on my old label a few years back. If Undergroove needed/wanted another label to split it with I'd consider resurrecting my label? (Tell them the first Johnny Truant record reissued on vinyl would be great too aha)
Should see if they would consider partnering with like Zegema Beach Records, Wax Vessel, Larry Records, or some of these other newer revival labels. ZBR would be able to give them beautiful tape variants and work with Gotta Groove Records so all their vinyl come out fantastic too.
i had this on CD, and it's one of many to disappear over the years of turning into a proper grown up and moving etc. :( every time i hear it, it feels me with a crazy energy that not even a few cups of strong coffee can compete with. Awesome.

1) Building (A House for Flowers and Lovers)
As the pressure closes in,
the opalescent axeman is
the savior for a day
and the weeping willows say;
"Join us in conquering
The three-armed kind of humanity.
Why wait for the fungal spores
To fill your lungs and decay your soul?"
But how the weeping willows say:
"The opalescent axeman is
the savior for a day.
Join us in conquering....."
2) The Beard is Immortal
!Whisper!
Hey damn you,
Victor,
This is a knife point.
Cut off your finger
and sink into the abyss
!Whisper!
T[his] fictional trait
He is a liar.
Gouge out your eyes
and
smell the flowers.
His face was scarred
and weathered.
This is (not) inevitable and fair.
Let's dance.
This trait leads to his
loss.
3) Infernal Music
Two chambers made from
Sleeping memories and cuticle lines.
Primitive etchings of
Love and violence
And cryptic signs.
Drifting with the
Lights out,
Patterns filled the walls
and slipped the
Knives out.
Shaking hands from this
Fingerless urge.
A prison of love
And a church disrupted
A scripture invasion that keeps him
hostage in his own home.
These cuticle lines are
Cryptic signs when
The lights are
Out and the
Knives out.
Victor's a hostage as
The vines grow.
4) Jack and Oscar Have a Fight
Obscurity lapses as the monumental idols fight.
Two animalistics and one figure laid bare and wide eyed.
Which way is direction?
5) Slap The Cubo-Futurist
Let's build the structures then
Add the numbers
Do the mathematics.
Regulate and arrange
the pieces in order to
Set a frequence.
On a whole new level,
decomposition occurs.
Jagged lines behind the eyes
and segment curves through
the jaw.
He is Sub-gender.
Base it on a true story.
The crows gather around him.
"What is your gender?
Are you superior?"
6) Time and Death Invading the Arcadian Scene
Dress me up
in my final robe.
wait for the morning.
Wake me up in transient violence.
The traitor sits.
"Show me the flowers,
Taste the fruits, bread
and skin."
/sos*sos*sos*sos//
The ship's going down.
It's based on the time.
Traitor.
7) Ex Post Facto
Ascension absorbed in this digression.
Unconscious and waiting for flight.
"Un-recognition and hopeless-ness" drawn on each arm,
Written by the hallucinogenic scalpels
8) Venezuela is Realised
We've got attention of
Eternal timing.
We've got
Attention of eternal
Timing.
There's competition for
Growing pains.
There's repetition in
What you saw.
This map is at the center of your dysentery.
Venezuela Is Realised
Extract the autopsy as the
Retrospective mainlines.
With all this time,
Venezuela is realised.
you're a godsend!

I'd buy it 100%, if this is really gonna happen please add the songs lyrics to the re-release lmao album is criminally underrated
I'd cop that shit so hard!
I definitely would.
