Additional Information
One of the most anticipated metal releases of 2001, Iowa is a delicious platter of bile-spitting, hate-filled rage rock.
absolutely perfect! came nicely packed; covered in bubble wrap and thick brown paper. the album itself was still in the plastic coat and looks just perfect. and the price was better than anywhere else! thank you so much :)
