Season To Risk are one of the pioneers of the "noise rock" genre alongside Unsane and Helmet, putting out two major label albums on Sony Music in 1993 and 1995 both featuring artwork by the top in the industry at the time (Frank Kozik and Derek Hess). They toured non-stop from 1989 to 2003, recording and releasing their final full-length in 2001 with Jason Livermore and Bill Stevenson of the Descendents and All, on their Owned & Operated label.
Then the band went on hiatus. In 2019 and 2020 they self-released vinyl versions of their independent releases, selling out modest 300 copy runs, and then in 2021 put out a rarities compilation cassette called 1-800-MELTDOWN in a run of 100 copies. In 2024 the band reformed and started playing live again, and are currently working on a new full-length album!
This Limited edition LP (with a completely different tracklisting from the cassette with the same title) features the song the band performed in the Kathryn Bigelow film "Strange Days" (which the label refused to put on the soundtrack CD release because the song was deemed “too noisy”), alongside rarely-heard rarities, compilation tracks and B-sides that span the career of the band (and which feature members of Shiner and The Life And Times) It also includes the first new S2R song released since 2001 -- a brand new track written and recorded in 2024.
Limited to 1000 copies worldwide and pressed on neon green vinyl with glow in the dark ink on the jacket. The band will be touring the Midwest and East Coast following the release of this LP!

GRADING
GRADING
Yellow Racket assigns condition based on the Goldmine Standard for grading records.
New (N) (Not typically included in the Goldmine Standard)
New records are purchased directly from the label, distributor, or registered wholesaler. Records are still sealed. Jackets may have slight shelf wear, but media has never been played.
Mint (M)
Still sealed. Never played. No observable flaws. Items have been purchased secondhand.
Near Mint (NM)
A Near Mint (NM) record will play perfectly, with no imperfections during playback. The record should show no obvious signs of wear.
The cover (and any additional packaging) has no creases, folds, seam splits, cut-out holes, or other noticeable defects.
Very Good Plus (VG+)
A Very Good Plus (VG+) record will show some signs that it was played and otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it.
Defects should be more of a cosmetic nature, not affecting the actual playback as a whole. Record surfaces may show some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches.
The disc and LP cover may have slight signs of wear, and may be gently marred by spindle marks, paper scuffs, wrinkled corners, etc.
Very Good (VG)
Many of the defects found in a VG+ record will be more pronounced in a VG disc. Surface noise will be evident, but will not overpower the music. Disc may have light scratches (deep enough to feel with a fingernail) that will affect the sound.
Labels, jackets, and inserts will have visible cosmetic flaws such as wrinkles, cut-outs, slight splitting, etc. However, it will usually have less than a dozen minor flaws.
Good (G)
A record in Good condition can be played through without skipping. But it will have significant surface noise, scratches, and visible groove wear. A cover or sleeve will have seam splits, especially at the bottom or on the spine. Tape, writing, ring wear, or other defects will be present.
While the record will be playable without skipping, noticeable surface noise and "ticks" will almost certainly accompany the playback.
Poor (P), Fair (F)
The record may be cracked, badly warped, or won't play through without skipping or repeating. The picture sleeve may be water damaged, split, or heavily marred by wear and writing.
