Earth - Divine And Bright (*** 2nd Test Pressing ***)
7" (black) / test pressing / Autofact / FACT-01 / made in USA / 2003.07.24
White label test pressing for the first pressing. The pressing date and catalog number are handwritten on the label. 15 copies are rumoured to have been made [1]. The retail records were also pressed in 2003, though not released until 2004 [2]. There are also test pressings for the unofficial second pressing.
A third pressing was planned, whether that would be official or not I don't know. It was cancelled, but at least two yellow-green white label copies have surfaced, both from the Autofact owner. [1] The same plates, or at least stampers manufactured from the original mothers were used, so test pressings shouldn't have been necessary. Most likely the white label pressings were just made to make an extra buck by selling what appeared to be test pressings.
*** White label records for the unofficial second pressing also exist, supposedly 25 were made. They were pressed using the same plates, meaning the matrix codes are identical. They can be identified by a slightly different label area around the spindle hole, as well as the vinyl having some lighter streaks compared to the solid black first pressing. According to myth, a record store owner in Los Angeles tracked down the pressing plant, pressing plates, and the original sleeves while Josh Hunt, owner of Autofact, was in jail. He convinced the pressing plant to make a new batch of records which he sold on eBay, to distributors, and to other record stores. It should be noted that this story cannot be substantiated.
