Lots of reasons! I'm working on a full length that will be on cd, but it's taking a while, so as a single this gives me something fresh on the merch table until then. My previous ep is on cd, and still sells at shows (music sells better than t-shirts for me right now, which is good), so having something in a different format is good, for variety's sake, and I refuse to do cassettes. I have had people ask for records at shows, and fans always like limited edition things. I also LOVE the art my friend did for the song, and wanted to print it nice and big!

But to be perfectly honest, it's mostly a vanity project. I like the sound of records and have always wanted to release one!
