It's a greek bootleg.
It's not so simple anymore. I think I've mentioned it before, but the scam is now international. There is a circle of bootlegers (coming from various countries) that alternate the roles of sponsor, manufacturer and seller. Yeps, there are some greeks playing leading part in this, but the same goes for some germans (and from some other countries, as well). At least this is the unconfirmed info i got from two different sources. But if one makes a search to track the stores that have these bootlegs for sale, he will probably reach to some useful conclusions himself. :wink:
I don't think it really matters who is selling the CD as they could be shipped anywhere before being sold but for what it's worth I've seen the CD sold by 3 different sellers and all were from greece.
How about Karthago? It also had them for sale almost since the day these bootlegs appeared.
Anyway, as I said, all the info I have is unconfirmed and I don't like playing the judge accusing anyone,but sometimes the simpler conclusions are the safer.So everyone must think for himself, using the common sense.

I was unaware that they were selling this as well. I haven't checked their shop for a long time.

Yeah, it looks like a CD-R to me as well.

That aside, has anyone ever heard the actual CD of this? Is the production as terrible on the actual disc as the sound clips that are floating around on the net?

Thank you sir.

This confirms that the production is complete shit on this album. I've put off buying the CD in fear that it was actually produced this way as it's rather unlistenable in my opinion but never had the opportunity to hear a quality rip. Attack of the fuzz.
