Southern Lord Launches Vinyl Subscription

The Southern Lord label has announced that it is offering 550 of its fans a subscription to its new vinyl releases.

For a one-time fee, members will received continued mailings of the label's records, starting with Black Cobra's Chronomega and Ascend's Ample Fire Within. Members will then get Pelican's What We All Come To Need. After that, a new vinyl release will arrive about every month. Members will receive seven albums in all.

All records will be 180 gram colored vinyl exclusive to the series. It also sounds like some of the vinyl releases will have exclusive songs not on the CD.

The cost for U.S. Subscribers is $170. For more info, visit www.southernlord.com.

I like the idea of label's offering a special vinyl series.

Jack White's Third Man Records has its Vault series, which offers very exclusive vinyl pressings available only to its members. Cool stuff.
