Slowdive - Holding Our Breath [12", Promo]


When you see the picture above, it could be just any white label promo or test pressing of course. But this is the white label promo edition of CRE 112T - or in other words: the HOLDING OUR BREATH EP by SLOWDIVE. I looked it up on various websites, but i found no other promo version of this 12", than this particular white label edition. To my knowledge, Creation Records normally issued promo editions with the track info at least on one of the labels, and they usually came in generic company sleeves. See for example this, this, this, this, this, this and this 12". So this one was quite an exception. Possibly it's a test pressing, but i strongly doubt that to be honest, because there are still quite a few of this version for sale on the internet and they are mostly described as "white label promo". And test pressings are usually made in only very small quantities. But who knows...
Anyway this is a welcome addition to my steadily growing Slowdive vinyl collection.
