Matte Black
Frank Mullen, drummer of Roach Motel has been photographing bands since the 1980s. Frank provided the excellent photos of Hated Youth that appeared on the "Hardcore Rules" 7". On his site you can see samples of his work, including Black Flag, Dead Kennedys as well as a bunch of lame crap like Metallica. If you require the services of a professional photographer and live in the Atlanta area, Frank's your guy. You can also ask him about Roach Motel. Go ahead.

United Record Pressing
Putting out a record? You should check into using United Record Pressing for 7" , 10" and 12" vinyl. They've been making records since before you were born and know what they're doing. I've done dozens of pressings with United and they always come out great. And their prices are the lowest in the world. URP has pressed vinyl for Burrito, Havoc, Slap A Ham, Profane Existence, Six Weeks and hundreds of small punk labels.
