Texas Is The Reason

Texas Is The Reason were a great indie/emo-core band in the mid-90s. They released one 7", two split 7"s and one LP, two of which came out on Revelation Records. In 2013, Rev decided to release this a band retrospective in form of a double LP. It contains the songs that were originally released on the band's only LP Do You Know Who You Are?, two songs that had never been released before, plus two alternative versions of Something To Forget.
The pressing info for this particular release is a little bit confusing to me. The first press was on blood orange, the second press on orange, the third press on orange and the fourth press on opaque orange, according to the Rev pressing info site. Might have mixed it up a little bit there, Rev… I'm not really sure what press I have here, what with all the orange(s). What's more, the record on the left looks like it could be a first press since it's rather dark (aka blood orange?) and shows some black streaks. The record on the right on the other hand looks like a clear orange to me. Anyone?

  1. I have two different copies of this one, and have absolutely no idea. What a stupid idea to press four different pressings on differing oranges though.
