PRODUCT DETAILS
Through all 4 songs they had and re-recorded the majority of elements to make the EP sound even more brutal. The band then sent out the EP material to various record companies and landed a deal in the hands of Swedish label Discouraged Records. The 4-song debut EP, later to be entitled "Allegiance Divine", is now set for release on CD/Digital 17th of June, 2022 and with LP in the fall, due to long production time. Vocalist Christian Älvestam about the feel and lyrical themes of the songs on "Allegiance Divine": "Whirlwind Reaper" is a slow and heavy, straightforward kind of song, with the emphasis on groove, which lyrically deals with the 2011 Norway terror attacks. "Close To All, Next To Nothing" - which lyrically is rooted in terrorism in the name of religion - is a more thrash-oriented song, with a catchy sing-along chorus. "When The Trap Is Set" is the most melody-driven song out of the four, with it's 80s horror movie-esque theme running through the song. Lyrically this song takes it's starting point in the 1995 Oklahoma city bombing. "Shadow.44" is the most death metal-oriented song on the album, with lots of tremolo-riffing and blast beats. Lyrically this one tells the story of the hunt for David Berkowitz, also known as the Son of Sam. Lead guitarist Patrik Gardberg explains in short his backstory on joining the band and philosophy behind his solo work on the album: "In 2018, Christian approached me asking if I would be willing to handle the lead guitar duties on Pre-Human Vaults' debut EP (back then unnamed, later on epically entitled "Allegiance Divine"). I listened to some of the raw stuff and thought it sounded honest and brutal, so I told him I was interested in trying out laying down some leads onto tape. The song "Whirlwind Reaper" was the first banger I started working on a solo for. Right away, I felt where the benchmark should be set for this record. All leads would have to contain different exotic flavors and tonalities, and tone with attitude. They should be like compositions within a composition, where every note counts and lives it's own lush life. Anyhow, it all ended up with me recording solos for all songs except "Shadow.44". I really can't wait to work on future songs and solos, but for now, let's enjoy this badass debut effort of ours."

By far, my favorite shop to buy from! Always quick with the delivery! Love tyler the creator and I've been searching for this specific vinyl at a good price!
package shipped well. there was a fragile sticker on the box which was nice, most places don’t put that and vinyls get damaged. package arrived in perfect condition.
Good packaging, product was in good condition and showed up on time great album no problems with any of the vinyls either very happy with it.
I am a huge Bob's Burger Fan and found this album as I was browsing the website. I had to get it immediately. I can believe I came across this on a random Tuesday. Can't thank coming across pale blue records enough. And the delivery is super fast. Can't wait for my next purchase.
Super fast shipping, packing done well. Exactly as described. The customer service and product choice is why I keep coming back.

Would definitely buy from Pale Dot Records again. The delivery was fast and the records sounds great!
Purchased as a Christmas gift for my 29 year old son. Can't wait for him to open. Packaged with care and timely shipping. Positive experience!
Vinyls arrived in perfect condition, expertly packed, and 3 days from the date of purchase (over the Thanksgiving holiday, no less). Could not be more pleased. Thanks so much!
We received our vinyl fast, it was fairly price, and they had a great selection to choose from. One record we purchased had an issue on the track, and the owner was quick to resolve the issue for us. I’ll be purchasing all of our records from this store moving forward!
The records and the sleeve are really nice. Pacific Dot Records blew me away with shipping it out like, immediately after I ordered it. Arrived well protected and perfect. No complaints.
fast shipping, great communication, and awesome staff. very responsive with messages too. can’t wait to purchase from them again
Records arrived inside the special record boxes, unopened, and in pristine condition. They didn't very long to begin the shipping either. Some places make you wait 3-5 days just to have it shipped out. They did not.
This is not about the product. I've ordered from PBD before and the Vinyls that come from them are wonderful and pressed really well!
This review is more on customer service.
USPS seemed to have goofed around a bit and cause a delay of about 1.5 weeks. Tristan was a highly communicative person and was reassuring with the options I had regarding if my order never arrived. Good sense of humor, accountability, and customer satisfaction. The Sweetwater of vinyl shops. Officially my vinyl go to!
