Pink vinyl records look as sweet as candy that’s why it’s interesting that a lot of rock bands choose them for their albums… and they look so cool! If you’re a metal/punk/rock band, you’re likely “locked” in the colors black, red and white for your website, merch, CD packaging, and uhmmm… everything else. That’s the […]
