I didnt knew about it until recently. It comes form the same source as the Parabellum one. However the bootlegger has no good coverscan yet to make a public bootleg release so there is only a bunch of testpress existing. I'm in contact of a guy who also got this offered as an original testpress...it's a real shame. Trying to fool people because the bootleg is still unknown

I dont think it's the bootlegger who does this crap as he is a real cool guy actually. It must be one or two of his contacts he has sent testpresses to.

Making all those big bucks by selling counterfeit products to unknowing collectors as originals. That's REAL COOL, yeah :roll:

he didnt sell, he just gave the testpresses away to close contacts. it's not his fault that the guys do bullshit with those

And for selling counterfeits as originals, this is simply not true.

I would love to have a nice quality bootleg of this as I know I'll probably never lay my hands on a real copy, but how did he make the bootleg if he doesn't have an original to scan? Is it from MP3s or the super-crappy CD version? No thanks...

Tom, did you get this FOH testpress offer from France? Anyway one French guy "Necrovore" is planning to put his FOH LP in ebay very soon. I gave him your contacts as I know you are after this original LP.
