Album Info

Release Date: 2015

Label: Freuq Et Repreuq

Issued in a folder more than a sleeve (it doesn't close and there is no glue or lack of it, no spine either), it is handnumbered on bottom back. Labels are stamped with A & B. It was sold with a small insert saying this record was created to help the protestation against the creation of an airport next to Nantes, in the Western part of France. It also comes with 2 postcards representing the French police fighting against the defenders of the zone. Those postcards were printed by zad.nadir.org.

500 copies were pressed: 350 copies, each sold for 10€ to collect 3500€, the money was given to 2 associations of defense for the police victims fighting against the airport project. 100 more copies were sold to repay the vinyl creation fees. 50 more copies unnumbered were "given away here and there to spread the message".

There is a typo between the release title on sleeve and the one given on the paper insert given as Muzică Populară.
