New sircles on the spin . Upper - AFM vs local Russian licence , thrice cheaper but definitely colors are darkened , Neon Diamond shines not so bright as it should. In real life the effect is not so sharp like in the picture, but the quality really differs.

Yeah. The CD booklet has that fiery design inside and it's much better than the one is actually on the front.

This stuff have not got get into my collection but I loved finding it. One of the best music places in Moscow is Gorbushka store. It is slowly dying as mass consumer is moving to internet while merchandise finds its place in small shops. Still Gorbushka is alive today and I am there for about once a year. So I was surprised to find a real HEAVY metal stull , bands logos made of cast iron. Togetherwith chains it could weight more then 10 kgs per a band

Well, I buy smth here , but life goes on . 35 years ago it was a legend and a heartbeat of forbidden music, 20 years ago it evolved into a big business machine where people could get any music and electronics. Now its a big number of stylish boutiques like that on my photo but as I see soon the main building will be crushed and rebuilt with new blockes. But I think all metal and rock stuff will migrate onto other smaller locations ... like Eugene Silins’s place )

It has not become a part of my collection but it looked really sharp ! I realised that for a couple of years I have not been at Gorbushka store so I took my wife and moved out. The metal part of it is still alive especially “rock boutiques”. For instance , here is what I found. A mid-sized ad signed by the band in a wooden frame and plastic case over it . Built quality is awesome . Price is 250 Euro. One of UDO stuff ( another one was “Thunderball” tour) :

PS… it looks like some definite part of metal merch of music of 80-90 tries to catch “rich b…tch” wallets. As people of old good are sometimes not only old and bold but smtms they have money. When a thin student, sometimes I saw fat cats in at their 50+ in their leather coats or smth . Fans of rockabilly, beatles ets. For me , а metalhead , it was like dinos alive. Time to kick ass of those reptiles ! Kidding. Though HM is a true music of men’s world … Fighting- fighting-fighting-fighting the world…..freewheel burning-burning-burnig just like fire ….. Tables have changed and my generation is those old MFs now They have Accept in stocks to take our money . So, a sales man of about 60 started to intrugie me. “What do You see? A golden vynil? Actually no. We take typilcal black one LP , any You want. We paint it with gold. We place it in a frame. And those people who prefer real values ( …such a sick manipulation ) can place this marvel on their wall of their apartment or a cottage. To watch it smoking a cigar and drinking wine”. Well, how it that to You, Elon Musk? “You know, digital files are for poors”… Haha, it looks like Louvre of Theriakovka gotta have such “Metal Heart” cover soon. As public is ready What can I say ? Death to the false metal !
