Just checked the last "new" album I bought - King Of Limbs (2011) - and it has a barcode.
By the way, that was in the UK.

True with barcode it is that time frame. But it isnt Always the case so beware the repress of School Days Flick Wilson on Jah Live records doesnt have a barcode.

Siegi, are you speaking of the recent press of School days that Digikiller put out about a year ago? There may not be a bar code, but it does say Mfg by Digikiller and distributed by Bond Export, along with an email address. That is another way to tell if something is recent if there is a website or email address.

Maybe it is another pressing you are referring to though.

Yep I know JP but we talked about barcodes here.

Anyway the best way to see if it is a repress or not is to take your time surff over the internet with the well known sites like this one and popsike and so on. And just look at the picture tabbs at google and compare. Besides that you have to see allot of reggae labels in your lifetime and know some specific knowledge, studio one has some rules to see if it is repress or not etc

Hi sonic!

No frogs in the studio:-))
It might be a talk box. It' a small effect unit for a guitarist.
