Dischord Records has plans to reissue all of their vinyl releases. Here is the word from the prominent punk/hardcore label:
Due to the renewed interest in vinyl LPs Dischord Records is remastering and re-cutting much of our vinyl catalog here in the United States. We will begin by re-pressing current titles, and later re-issuing others, all re-cut at Chicago Mastering Service and featuring complimentary MP3 album downloads. This move will coincide with a small but long overdue price increase (from $10 to $11 on Dischord 12" LPs and from $8 to $9 for 12" EPs) that will begin with newly pressed titles and extend to all titles in January 2009. The following remastered vinyl titles are available NOW: Minor Threat Out of Step 12" EP (now on 45 rpm, new cover from original drawings, black vinyl) Minor Threat First 2 7 inches 12" EP (now on 45 rpm, new yellow cover, black vinyl) Faith/Void Split LP (on purple vinyl) One Last Wish 1986 (first time on LP!) Many more remastered titles will be available on 12" LP in the next weeks and months so stay tuned.
