Description: Hello & welcome to our eBay store. The October installment of the Joyful Noise 2013 Flexi Disc Series is a new unreleased recording from (the) MELVINS! At the Joyful Noise office, the Melvins are generally regarded as the greatest band in the history of music. It is not an exaggeration to say that our label would not exist without the Melvins. More than any other band, the Melvins are responsible for shaping our artistic world view. A view that, like the Melvins, grows weirder with age. For their flexi track the Melvins have provided a live rendition of their 2008 song "Billy Fish", this time called "Billy Fish Alive" (as it says on the cover art- designed by Mackie Osborne) or "Billy Fish, Live" as they stipulated it be printed on the flexi-disc (ah melvins... always messing with the fans). Originally recorded for (but not included on) their "Sugar Daddy Live" album, the track was recorded & mixed by the band's longtime engineer Toshi Kasai, and is forever limited to just 1000 copies on flexi-disc. What is a Flexi Disc? In case you are unfamiliar, a Flexi Disc is basically a thin, single-sided vinyl record which is flexible (hence the name), and rather obscure. However it is playable on any standard turntable. Back in the day flexis were often packaged inside magazines and even in cereal boxes. In the late 60s, The Beatles even used to send special Christmas flexi discs to their fan club. The Joyful Noise 2013 Flexi Disc Series features different artists each month for the duration of the year. All of the releases are strictly limited to 1000 copies on single-sided clear flexi discs. Digital will NOT be made available. That's right, these songs will only be available on these 1000 physical units. All of the songs featured in the series are 100% new and unreleased and will never be released in any other format. So kiddies, there isn't even a chance you already have this in your iTunes... Literally the only way you will hear this song is to buy this flexi disc. We have been providing great bargins and quality merchandise on eBay since 1999.
