The Giving Groove is proud to present the first vinyl reissue of The Dead Milkmen’s classic album Metaphysical Graffiti. Fans have cherished hits such as If You Love Somebody, Set Them on Fire and Methodist Coloring Book, but since the Enigma label’s initial release in 1990, copies of the original pressing have become increasingly difficult to unearth. The remastered album will be offered as a limited-edition variant of 2,500 copies, pressed exclusively for Black Friday Record Store Day, 2022. Housed in a gatefold jacket, bonus materials will include:

• A reproduction of the Methodist Coloring Book. Penned by Dean Clean’s wife, Melissa, the coloring book was printed as a promotional item for the 1990 release and has never been made commercially available.

• Four of the album’s songs, which the band loving refers to as “The Earls”, that have been pulled from the 12” and given their own snot-colored 7” vinyl with new artwork.

• An interior jacket designed with never-before-seen photos, text about the model house that is featured on the front cover, and Dandrew’s recounting: "Everything I Needed to Know About Culture I Learned from Metaphysical Graffiti”.

• The 12” sleeve featuring the original art, lyrics, and credits.

• A QR code to download the remastered album digitally as a compliment to the vinyl. As with all Giving Groove releases 100% of the label’s profit benefit a music-related charity. Since signing with The Giving Groove in 2017, the Milkmen have continued to support the Philadelphia based 501(c)3 organization Girls Rock Philly
