Here’s some more information on the hmv Vinyl Week exclusives, dropping June 15:

Blind Melon / Soup on 1921 Edition orange vinyl

"Soup" is the second studio album by Blind Melon, released eight weeks before vocalist Shannon Hoon’s fatal drug overdose. The album proved to be a challenging, gripping record that is just as strong and perhaps even more rewarding than their debut album. “2 X 4” is about Hoon’s experience at a drug detox, “Galaxie” is about Hoon’s experience with his car, a 1964 Ford Galaxie, and “Skinned” is about serial killer Ed Gein. The producer of the album, Andy Wallace, is seen on the cover sipping soup. In 2005, "Soup" was ranked number 357 in Rock Hard magazine’s book of ‘The 500 Greatest Rock and Metal Albums of All Time’.

Blood Incantation / Hidden Histories of the Human Race on 1921 Edition neon green & lilac split vinyl

"Hidden Histories of the Human Race" is the second studio album by death metal band Blood Incantation. This album showcases the band’s blend of technical prowess and atmospheric elements, creating a unique soundscape that has garnered critical acclaim within the metal community.
