Brilliant idea all the same

Here's the plan for those of you not on the Cass Mailing list-
While you're on the records page, you'll notice that the Dirtbombs 12" single for "Race to the Bottom" is now sold out. First off, you are all suckers. I can't believe you even bought it. But that's not even the best part...

Cass Records is also proud to announce the upcoming release of a new Dirtbombs 7". On it we cover two songs by Ray Columbus "Kick Me" and "The Crunch." This single was initially slated to be our New Zealand tour single in 2008, but the lazy guy who set up the tour never got around to it. Ray Columbus is from New Zealand, by the way, and we even played a show with him on that tour.

The only way to obtain a copy of this record will be to mail us (Cass Records) a copy of the "Race to the Bottom" 12-inch that is completely destroyed. I'm talking AT LEAST cracked in half. Ground into a fine dust. Melted to look like a fried egg. Riddled with bullet holes. I don't care what exactly you do or how you do it, but I want a pile of these records defiled beyond playability. Just scratching it it a bit will not suffice. No, you need to unleash some aggression on this thing. Don't be shy.

Once you've done the deed, please mail the remnants (we need to at LEAST see the label as verification that it is indeed "Race to the Bottom" you spent quality time with) to:

Ben Blackwell
623 7th Ave South
Nashville, TN 37203
USA

Please include a return address so you can receive the awesome, actual songs 7" FOR FREE! You don't even have to cover shipping! This is our idea of a gift to you!

We will only be pressing a limited number of these 7"s (probably 200) and we will not be selling them AT ALL. They will also not be available for trade a la Tin Knocker. No, the only way you will receive a copy of this super-limited Dirtbombs 7" single is to destroy a soon-to-be-limited Dirtbombs 12" single.

If you vaguely know me (Ben) or have been friendly or traded with Cass before and are wondering if you might be able to weasel one of these singles out of me all slick-style, think again Clyde. This shit is meant to be hard to get, meant to make you think, meant to force you to come to a decision. So bust out that radial arm saw and get working.

We can't wait to see how this works out. We've been planning it for months.
I wish I was purple, because I'm feeling blue. I'm not looking for love, but a good fuck'll do.

This is hilarious. I'm going to launch mine off a clay pigeon thrower and shoot it with a shotgun. I just sort of wonder if it will be riddled with holes and sort of hold together, or explode into dust... As long as I have a recognizable label I don't think it matters. I'll post pics later...

Awesome job shady... very creative. Ben should have had a contest on the most creative way to destroy these. I have a few ideas up my sleeve myself.
