All the way back in 2007 (it was 5 years ago now!) Moutheater released their debut 7" EP on
Thrashed records. Seeing as I have been getting into Moutheater lately, I decided to pick up a distro copy from A389 when ordering a few things. Turns out they had it on sale for less than Thrashed records, what a bargain!
As you can no doubt see, this comes with one of those adapter things in the middle. This led me to believe it was cut as 45rpm, I've usually only seen them on records of that speed. It's actually cut at 33rpm, so of course was playing all funny when it started. I'm not entirely sure why they went with the bigger hole size in the middle, or in fact why anyone uses the bigger hole size.
Being 5 years late on picking this up, I was only able to buy the regular black version. According to
discogs, there is at least two other versions out there. One of them is grey, while one is called TP. It has a yellow colour next to it, but I'm not really sure what that is supposed to be.
There are a total of three songs on this EP, with the lyrics to each on the back. And if you are just dying to hear the tracks (I know you are), the band have been kind enough to upload them all to bandcamp for you.
The 45 hole was a fuckup on behalf of the people who pressed the record. The adapters were included because we knew not many folks were going to be able to play such a record without one.

Cheers for that, I thought it may have been some kind of mistake. Great of you to throw in the adapters by the way
