Terror Visions (Jay Reatard) - World Of Shit

Terror Visions, originally named "Endless Tunnel", started as a creative outlet for Jay Reatard to record songs he didn't see fit for his other music projects. Terror Visions was formed in 2002 by Jay and Aaron. Soon after, a third member, Jackson, was added. While Terror Visions did recordings over a four year span, the band only played one live show. 
The first Terror Visions release was a CDR titled "Endless Tunnel" on Jay's own label Shattered Records. The CDR was limited to 100 copies. In 2007 all of the tracks from this CDR as well as six more were compiled onto the bands first proper release: "World of Shit" on FDH Records (FDH #71). This record was a picture disc LP limited to 1000 copies and a CD featuring two bonus tracks. The CD tracks would later see their vinyl debut on the "Bleed in America" 7", limited to 300 copies. It was released by two Italian labels: Disordered Records & Lo-Fi Records.
This new re-issue (on 180 gram black wax) compiles all of the tracks from the three releases, as well as two songs that have never previously been released. You can pre-order the new LP through FDH Records which is set to be officially released on December 6. With pre-orders made before October 15, a giveaway drawing was held. Prizes included gift certificates to FDH Records, test-pressings (Limited to 10), FDH records, and TV magnets.
