"Veritas Vinyl & Vinyl Remains are proud to announce our next project: the 20th Anniversary vinyl release of the Iconic, landmark album The Pillars of Humanity by The Crucified. Yup, you heard us right! Expect a release date before the end of the year. Stay tuned for more details."

... studio masters if not made specifically for vinyl records, if they are "digital" I have read, are crappy sounding if used to make vinyl plates..

They were made for cd's and might sound "clipped" or sterile when put to vinyl ?

anybody know what the status is?
I never seen the original Pillars on vinyl so have no idea myself.

Dude, this is AWESOME!

mlotek - not necessarily. I have several brand new vinyl albums, all recorded, mixed and mastered digitally, and they sound just as good on vinyl as they do on CD.
