Questions

How many vinyl pressings of Antichrist are there?

When was Antichrist first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1996, in Germany. One of them is Malicious Records MR008LP.

How do I tell if my copy of Antichrist is a first pressing?

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use MR008LP) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, MR 008 A and MR 008 B. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
