INFEST / PHC 8" FLEXI
SAH -01
The only thing to note is that some time in the late 90's Chris Dodge sold some on his mailorder list. I think he called it the "closet press" because, well, he found a stack in his closet. There were around 20 copies and he numbered these over 1,000 because he couldn't remember if these were extra copies and didnt want to repeat any numbers.
Euro Bootleg - Press 1000
Europen bootleg with cartoon cover. What weirdo put this out and decided to change the cover art to this?! Really weird choice to cut up the logo into 3 2 letter blocks as well. Hand numbered on the insert, scratched out matrix.
Press 1000 Blue Vinyl Flexi
The infamous 90's label Slap A Ham kicks off with this wacky 8" blue vinyl live flexi. Not much to say here, 1000 pressed, all on blue, no test pressings. Nice beefy live recording from gilman street.

Repress Slap A Ham 1 1/2
In 2000 this was repressed on hard vinyl with additional songs. The Infest side went from 5 to 8.
Test Press 6 Copies
No sleeve, just a plain white label test in a white dust sleeve. One was sold a few years back and had sah 1 1/2 handwritten on the dust sleeve. "Need" one of these if anyone is selling or trading.
Mailorder Blue Vinyl 200, 1300 on black.

SLAVE LP
OTD-02
The euro pressing of the full 18 song session from 1988. Put out by two guys in Switzerland; Thomas, and Erich on their label Off The Disk. The white stripe on the cover is a printing error and was corrected in the second press. This is where the limited variations really take off. There's lots of speculation, wild rumors, and downright lies in auction descriptions about how many of each color were pressed. I'll outline the standard colors below as well as some ultra nerdery. All copies should have a yellow and black insert. If its black and white its a photocopy. A few weeks ago i shot a message to Thomas after he sold a blank white label test (for $909!!). This is right from him word for word. So unless you worked at the plant and can check invoices from 1988 here are the exact numbers set in virtual stone...
I’ve found the old papers from the pressing plant in my basement.
Here are the correct number of pieces of the Infest pressings:
1st Press
- 15 copies Test Press
- 822 copies black wax
- 101 copies orange wax (some people mean gold or yellow)
- 100 copies violet wax (some people mean pink or purple)
- 4 copies mix colored wax
2nd press
- 12 copies Test Press (most of these copies were for friends + distribution for free)
- 450 copies blue wax
- 450 copies green wax
- 105 copies one side blue / other side green
- 17 copies mix colored, swirrl wax
I don’t remember how many copies of the tests came with green or blank white labels.
I think the most were with the blank white label.
Both tests came with green and white blank labels and looks like the same.
1st PRESS
2 are sitting in so cal collecting dust in a top secret location. This is a pic of a test i found sitting on discogs with some extra goodies. 2nd photo is a test that showed up for sale at sorry state records in early 2014 and sold with the quickness...
My copy comes in a handmade jacket & dust sleeve. It also has a label layout sheet with a letter from the printer. Then we have Joe D's copy that was sold a few years ago...
100 Pink Vinyl
There are NOT 20 on pink which seems to be a common misconception. Again there are some variations in this color. My friend and i compared our copies and his was hot dayglo pink, while mine is pink with a few streaks of yellow. You can see the different colors in the photo taken by fellow Infest madman Kyle when he owned 2 copies. Again people are holding these tight, last one that is archived sold in 2006.
2nd PRESS
Cover has been corrected with a black border around the photo. No Poster. Green vinyl copies have blue labels. Blue vinyl copies have green labels. Split color copies have 1 green and 1 blue label. This is where the Infest / OTD beef started. I guess the band was not notified that there was going to be a second press in 1991. They quickly followed with a draw blank press limited to 100 copies, then the standard press on deep six Check that info HERE.

Test Press 15 Copies
Green label tests rarely pop up. When i bought mine from Erich he told me all the original tests had green labels. In some old emails Thomas said there were 8 with green labels and 4 with white. Band members only had green label tests so that would point to all original tests having green labels. Apparently the weird light green labels with "P" printed on them are the backside of labels this plant used. (As of 3/2014 there are 6 green label tests out there that i know of). Photo of mine...

205 LTD Mailorder Color Vinyl
These should come with a large color poster, stickers, and a megawimp insert.
4 Mixed Colored Vinyl
When i bought my test Erich offered me a bunch of other rare colors. Among them was a black/ purple swirl vinyl copy. I turned them all down and only bought the test. Ah to be young and cheap. The photo he sent me is lost in a sea of 1's and 0's but it was drastically different from the pink copies.
Just came across this in a secret vault in so cal. Color is dark opaque pinkish/ purple with black swirls.
101 Yellow / Orange / Amber/ Gold Vinyl
You may see this listed as any of these colors because of the various tints that happen during normal record pressing. There is not a breakdown of tints so if someone is telling you there are exactly 18 on pure yellow vinyl tell them to suck a lemon. The copies i have are amber/ almost orange and straight gold (splitting hairs). I only noticed this after i picked up a second copy for trade. I haven't seen one of these up on ebay since the Infest boom started and prices went into horror territory.

Test Press 12 Copies
These seem to pop up quite often. I got mine from Thomas. There are about 15 copies that can be accounted for so far. Its recently come up that there may be a lot more than 12-15 copies, and more like 70-100. The 1st photo found on discogs recently may . If anyone has a black vinyl copy in a black 2nd press cover send me a message, i got some questions maybe you can help me answer.

105 or 122 LTD Split Color Vinyl
Not quite sure where the 17 swirl vinyl copies belong. Apparently they made this by taking 2 color vinyl sheets and pressing them together instead of the standard hockey puck style of pressing. What you are left with is a really cool piece of vinyl. One side is blue, the other side is toothpaste green (the most common combination). I've seen people list sides as brown, white, blue, dark green, toothpaste, and there are probably more. All 3 of the copies I have are blue on 1 side, on the other side 1 is a really cool greenish yellow swirl, the other 2 are very pale green almost white.

2010 Bootleg
This was recently booted to look just like the original but you can find information on how to spot a fake detailed by Erich from OTD here... Good music for bad times Without even checking the matrix or cover finish a black vinyl copy with a poster its probably gonna be a boot. They are all over ebay right now so keep your 1 good eye peeled. This also sounds like complete dogshit. The high end only comes out of one speaker and overall its pretty muffled.
Boot is on greyish blue paper, original is bright blue. Text on the boot is slightly blurry and the K in Disk is missing what looks like © above the "side one (other side!)" text.
Supposed LTD Cover of 100. Complete shit.

In the beginning there was nothing...Then God said let there be brutality.
The original demo was your usual diy affair. Colored paper covers and hand written tape labels on the finest cassettes lurking in the audiophile section at the local VONS, with some even sporting a yellow and black printed logo sticker, slick and professional. Some copies have a 2 sided lyric insert. A bunch are missing this insert so its possible they didn't all have them or they were just lost over the years. According to second hand information from a rock solid source (ebay description) Dave Ring told the seller there were 100 copies of the original tape. Seems like the light brown/ tan paper is the most common. Below are some various photos and scans of original demos. There are definitely variations out there; just check out the 2 different lyric sheets posted here. Got a variation? Send in a pic or add to the comments section. If anyone out there decides they no longer need their copy i'm you're man. One of the few things i do not have and "NEED". |  |

The copy below is interesting. It has an added panel on the right (skull with BSU tape distro logo) and appears to be numbered below the song titles. Someone says they purchased a copy from this distro in 1989. Not sure if it was Ok'd by the band to print up some copies or already being booted. Either way if you see one like this its not the original band released edition.
