LAWNMOWER DETH: 'OOH CRIKEY IT'SŠ' FULL DYNAMIC RANGE EDITION OUT NOW

OOH CRIKEY IT'S…, the long out-of-print debut album from British madcap thrashers LAWNMOWER DETH, is out now on Full Dynamic Range vinyl, CD and digital download.

Originally released in 1990, OOH CRIKEY IT'S… went hand-in-hand with LAWNMOWER DETH's notoriously anarchic live shows in leading the band to develop a cult following and feature regularly in the UK Indie Chart.  The band have reformed in recent years and have since made appearances at a number of legendary festivals, including Download, Sonisphere and Damnation, with fans persistently requesting a reprint of the debut.

OOH CRIKEY IT'S… has been specially remastered from the original tapes in Full Dynamic Range (FDR) audio, allowing the music's nuances to shine through and giving the whole album a more ferocious and dynamic sound than ever before.

The album is available now on Full Dynamic Range CD, as well as vinyl in the following limited quantities and colours:

100 - Clear
200 - Green & White Splatter
300 - Green
400 - Black

Get OOH CRIKEY IT'S… on Full Dynamic Range CD and vinyl in Europe at http://webstore.earache.com/lawnmower-deth or in North America at http://uswebstore.earache.com/lawnmower-deth

The Full Dynamic Range edition of OOH CRIKEY IT'S… is also available now on iTunes at http://bit.ly/1udnv9O
