    All picture of this release on vinyl show the labels with brown ink for the words and picture. However I have a repress with black ink used. Anyone else?

      Does the outer sleeve for this version really have MINUTEMEN written in white lettering?

        So, if the basic tracks were recorded on July 3, 1982 and the guitar and vocal overdubs were done in August 1982, how the fuck was the album released in February of that same year? :)
