My guess is that a lot of casual black metal fans buy them because it's the cool thing to do nowadays.

@Nicodemix (and Marksveld): Update your distro page. You've had those Taake items in stock for a long time, no? If you want to sell something, then you should at least make it easy for potential customers to buy from you.
 
On the other hand.. I wanted it because if the hype is true, its going to be a monumental vinyl in USBM history. Fuck me, here I come, eBay.

What hype is that then? Is there something special about this release?

Its Xasthur and Leviathan. I've heard from many that this isn't a shitty, rushed split with bad and already released songs. Apparently, the music is exceptional. We're not talking about a Xasthur/Nachtmystium 7'' quality split here.

So people who hype the Xasthur/Nachtmystium split are casual black metal fans trying to sound cool? Fuck, I've heard a lot of people praising it.
 
Well no, I didn't say that... but the Xasthur/Nachtmystium split is not as good as it could be... the songs aren't new or revolutionary. And as far as both bands go, the production is pretty lousy (and I consider Telepathic with the Deceased good). I'm a big fan of both bands and I own this split, but it is not worth more than a total of 7-10 dollars- still, its a pretty cool little 7''
