The Casket Lottery Complete Collection

In March of last year I had posted what was my "Complete" Casket Lottery Collection. Although at the time that was 99% true. Since then they have put out 3 new releases(one 7", a split 7" & a LP) and I have also picked up an overlooked comp. 7". So as of right now, it is the most up to date and done its going to get! The photo I had posted before kind of sucked and to be honest it feels this one isnt that good either but I have added a bunch more photos with a little more detail. Enjoy!


LPs:
Moving Mountains/Choose Bronze

Survival is For Cowards/Possiblies and Maybes

SBB Split 10"/Smoke and Mirrors/Real Fear

7"/Splits:



Casket Lottery/Reflector Tour 7"

Here is the A/B-Front cover/back cover. Stamped/letterpressed labels

Close up of the labels and back cover tab

Casket Lottery/Waxwing 7"
(no idea to the significance of the numbering on the back of the Waxwing split. I've seen copies un-numbered and have seen another purple copy with numbering. At the time of this post back in March I had thought maybe it was just the purples but I have recently seen a copy on blue that was numbered. I asked Dan Second Nature if he knew of any tour/show versions and he himself could not remember or did not know. If you have any knowledge please comment or message/email me. Id like to update and put it in here if possible.)

Pick ups



Death Cab For Cutie- "Transatlanticism"- Grand Hotel Van Cleef- 180g black/???
Pedro the Lion- "Control"- Jade Tree- Re-master/Re-press- Black/???
Pedro the Lion- "Achilles Heel"- Jade Tree- Re-master/Re-press- Black/???
The Casket Lottery/Touché Amorè 7"- No Sleep Records- transparent pink/500

For those who may not know, Jade Tree reissued every Pedro The Lion LP release in late October/November. If you didn't ever feel like paying for the originals, they are now avaible again. Black vinyl remastered by TW Walsh. You can probably find them anywhere!

Death Cabs "Transatlanticism" has been OOP for a long while now, supposedly. While both the original Sonic Boom version and German version on Grand Hotel Van Cleef usually go for a bit of money someone must have hit a dead stock somewhere. Out of the "10 available" I ended up picking this up for still a little more than I would have liked to spend on it BUT a few dollars more than some double LPs come out for now a days depending on the label but still a very fair price compaired to what it could or would go for.

Not so big on 7" records but the Casket Lottery/Touche Amore split is a collection completer. Its packaging is pretty unique(and slightly annoying, ha). Dont think I have come across any origami-esque layouts before. I feel like I should get it unfolded and instead of lyrics and credits it should say "do you like me? YES/NO". Overall the record came out great!
