Can anybody that owns the real first press tell me if this is a bootleg or a real version?
Bought it for 15 euros
according to discogs this could be either a real first Spanish press or a Russian bootleg from 2012.
I see what you mean with the matrix code, also the fonts look a bit "thicker" on the bootleg
Thanks for helping me out man! This was really helpful, this is why this community is so great :)
I keep this version, the real first press and legitimate repress are also really hard to find…
totally! another difference is the booklet staples - most of the original booklets have ugly looking staples (either off centered, not perfectly in the middle of the crease, ripped out or rusted by age)

it's a bootleg - the original matrix is not in the middle of the ring - it's more towards the center hole:

For people interested in this album, go to Xtreem music shop. It's run by Dave Rotten from Avulsed and it's not a bootleg.
