So there’s two records this week. I love them both so I figured i’d include both of them.. Big shocker, At the Drive in is featured in this one. As most of you know, probably my favorite band of all time, check out these two releases, my favorite 45s by them.. Also if you aren’t aware of this, the singer and guitarist of At the Drive-in now are the main two players behind The Mars Volta.

WHAT RECORDS I HEART:
a. AT THE DRIVE-IN / BURNING AIRLINES –
RECORDED BY: Mike Major / J. Robbins, CATALOG NUMBER: THK-066 : 7″ picture disc (split), ARTWORK BY: Damon Locks, RELEASE DATE: 2000

b. AT THE DRIVE-IN / THE AASEE LAKE –
RECORDED BY: Alex Newport / Kevin Ratterman, CATALOG NUMBER – Nerd Rock Records No. 3, Ghetto Defendant #5, 1999.

WHY IT’S SPECIAL:
DAMN just look at the picture disc. The artwork is great and the song is actually better. I have three of these records lying around, along with an Alkaline Trio one that looks just like it…

The other split record is individually hand painted and must have been sold out in no time.

WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE:

WHAT’S ON IT:
AT THE DRIVE-IN / BURNING AIRLINES – ‘Catacomb / The Deluxe War Baby’
(the version below is different from the ones on the B-Sides comp)

At the Drive-in – Catacombs (7inch version)

AT THE DRIVE-IN / THE AASEE LAKE – ‘Doorman’s Placebo / The Dualistic Struggle between Good and Evil within Ticket Lines and Reality’

At the Drive-in – Doorman’s Placebo

I have trouble believing this, but it says that the picture disc is still available at THICK RECORDS HERE.

Anyone else got these??
