Description: Helmet Betty IVC Edition 2LP Gray Etched Vinyl x/3000 + SIGNED Litho x/1000 The vinyl album is an Interscope Vinyl Collective release meaning it is a deluxe version and they only made 3000 of them. The vinyl I’m selling is numbered 2319/3000. Then I also have a signed litho to add to it and there are only 1000 of those. The litho I’m selling is numbered 32/1000. Both are numbered and brand new, the litho didn’t come in plastic but the album is still in the plastic! I will ship the litho in a plastic cover though to keep it safe. More information on both the litho and the ivc album below.

New York alt-metal gods Helmet scored a massive, if unlikely, hit with their pummeling 1992 sophomore album Meantime. But instead of just following a formula for their next album Betty, they veered way left, augmenting heavy rock with sounds borrowed from the blues, John Coltrane and avant-garde composer Glenn Branca. "If things are going really well, do the opposite," frontman Page Hamilton said of Betty in 2015. "Shoot yourself in the foot." "In addition to being Helmet's most experimental album," Rolling Stone wrote upon the album's release, "Betty is ironically the group's most accessible." (In 2014, the album would appear on the outlet's 40 Best Records of 1994 list. Classics like "Wilma's Rainbow," "Street Crab" and "Milquetoast" retain the band's penchant for groove alongside Hamilton's melodic vocals. But Brazilian guitar and abstract jamming (their cover of the jazz standard "Beautiful Love") meets bluesy metallic twang ("Sam Hell") meets weirdo funk ("The Silver Hawaiian") meets atypical meters and piles of noise. It all adds up to one of the most landmark metal albums ever recorded. Make me an offer! You never know!
