      Hah, awesome. Reminds me of 80s low budget fantasy movies. As an aside, I was bored and watched Krull last night, so this feels very apt.

      Giving the whole album a listen today, then will decide if I buy just the album or the rainbow vinyl to display or the blacklight poster. The poster is very on brand for their theme and I'm old so on brand for me too I suppose. I do have display vinyl already, so adding this one to the mix would fit in just fine.
      It is funny that the poster is so pricey though, guess with the resurgence of vinyl it's cheaper to get those made than flocked posters of yesteryear.
