Monolith's Tales of the Macabre LP
Monolith's Tales of the Macabre LP
Hey,
I just won an eGay auction for the Monolith's Tales of the Macabre test pressing LP. There's very little information on that obscure band from the UK other than the fact that Nick Barker was the drummer for them. Is there any reason why this album never made it beyond the test pressing stage?
In any case, I might have gotten an interesting little gem without really knowing much about them when I won it.

It was titled as "Tales of Macabre", sans the "the" part from the eBay auction.peterott wrote:hmm...I have an automatic search on ebay, and this hasn't popped up. Was the auction's title not "Tales Of The Macabre" but shortened ? However, it is one of the rarer Headache Records LP (under the pre-condition that it really was released by Headache)

By the way, it was already bootlegged by Eternal Darkness Rec./USA some years ago on CDR.
maybe ebay search ignores "the" if the search phrase begins with it, but trying to search that item in copleteted listings also won't find it. "tales of macabre" though, is there..
sometimes that search engine is kinda fucked. I have found stuff (completed, international) rather via google than directly at ebay sometimes, even if not older than 3 mths..

Sometimes, I find active eBay auctions via Google. In ways, it works in wondrous ways if I'm not arsed to sift through dozens upon dozens of auctions.sagrotan wrote:maybe ebay search ignores "the" if the search phrase begins with it, but trying to search that item in copleteted listings also won't find it.

Anyways, I reckon that nobody has any sort of information regarding this little elusive release, no?
