Thanks to Edward Ayllon for this fantastic photo of A Somber Preclusion of Being on vinyl! He kindly gave us permission to share this image from his Instagram, @pits_and_grooves, where he regularly posts awesome pictures and descriptions of (mostly metal) records. Highly recommended.
This edition of the vinyl is starting to disappear, but is still available on our website and Bandcamp.
