  3. I love this show. I love the music. But I'd never listen to it outside watching the show. However, this is one of the few pressings revovling around a show that I can say "OK that's pretty damn cool". First off, Sub Pop does no wrong. Secondly, that pricing is great. Thirdly, having a regular option and a deluxe option is awesome. You can get all of it for under $30, or go wild with the deluxe, instead of most other labels where they make you shell out an arm and a leg for just your one option of deluxe. This show has a huge cult following so I can see the appeal. You buy it and listen to it, good for you. You buy it and shelf it, OK, fine. Seriously though, that pricing is great so (even though I'm not buying it) no one should complain about it. That's a great release in all aspects. Now if they did Home Movies music on vinyl... Give. Me. Now.

  6. Then what's the difference between this vinyl release and any other collectible? So you're saying that anyone that collects things that aren't of actual use (e.g. action figures, vintage coins, old issues of TV Guide) aren't adults as they're throwing away their money on useless items? If so, fair opinion. But this forum seems like a weird place to be proclaiming your adulthood from a mountain top. We have avatars and post thousands of messages about vinyl records. None of us are adults here.

  8. Stating your opinion shouldn't rain on anyone's parade. Honestly, it's bewildering to me that you can't find any excitement in any of the mindbogglingly awesome records that the Mars Volta put out, grammy's and all. Saying nothing that Omar has done has excited you really makes me think you just weren't paying attention because the guy has released upwards of 40 albums in that time. Saying not one of them excites you is just lazy, especially if you enjoyed ATDI. It baffles me that people are expecting 40+ year old dudes to bang out the same old shit they did when they were 18. I thought everyone knew by now that it just doesn't happen, ever. They're different people, with different circumstances. Enjoy it for what it is, or don't. And everyone harps on that reunion, where Omar stated he hated every last bit of it because his mom died right at the beginning of it. I'm not sure about you guys, but I give him a pass. By all accounts, the most recent touring was outstanding, Jim Ward or not.

  10. https://megamart.subpop.com/releases/bobs_burgers/the_bobs_burgers_music_album Bob’s Burgers premiered on the Fox network January 2011, and quickly became one of the most watched series on television. After enjoying the highest-rated new season premiere of the 2010-11 season, Bob’s Burgers quickly settled into an average viewership of over 4 million per episode. The show has won an Emmy award and been nominated five times, including a current nomination for Outstanding Animated Program. It has inspired many popular spinoff items, including a recent, best-selling cookbook. With the seventh season set to premiere this fall, Bob’s Burgers’ cultural influence only grows. Now comes The Bob’s Burgers Music Album, featuring 107 songs from the first 107 episodes (all six existing seasons), plus five special cover versions of songs from the show. Originally broadcast within the episodes – and often in abbreviated form – these songs appear here in their freestanding glory for the first time. The Bob’s Burgers Music Album – in both its affordable standard editions and its impressive deluxe edition – is sure to be a top gift item this holiday season. • The album features the main cast members – Bob (Jon Benjamin) and Linda (John Roberts) and their children Tina (Dan Mintz), Gene (Eugene Mirman) and Louise (Kristen Schaal) – singing original songs that build on the show’s unique sense of humor. • Also featured are many of the show’s recurring and special guests, from comedians like Aziz Ansari, Sarah Silverman, Kevin Kline, Paul Rudd, Bill Hader, Zack Galifianakis, and Fred Armisen, to musical guests Cyndi Lauper and Carly Simon. • Includes five never-aired “Bob’s Buskers” cover versions of songs from the show performed by St. Vincent, the National, Lapsley, and Stephin Merritt of Magnetic Fields. • Three standard versions: 2xCD set, 3xLP+7”, and digital. • Deluxe limited-edition 3 LP+7” box set includes “condiment-colored” vinyl (ketchup red, mustard yellow & relish green), plus a hardbound lyrics book with exclusive Bob’s Burgers artwork, a soft cover sheet-music songbook, three original posters, a six-piece sticker pack, and a patch. Both the standard and deluxe LP editions include the five “Bob’s Buskers” tracks on a white 7” single.

  13. Exactly! And so much music is mixed this way. It makes me laugh when people were bitching in 1993 that In Utero sounded "shitty" and "low quality" and I'm over here like, "that's what sound sounds like. They aced that shit." People are afraid of real sound.

  18. In My Room features the unreleased recordings of what would have been the very last album of The Gun Club. Recorded in the very last period of the band, between 1991 and 1993 - the studio recordings that Jeffrey Lee Pierce did with The Gun Club, with maximum quality and excellence of sound and presentation. What Jeffrey Lee Pierce exposes here is the highest vocal and guitar performing, from sounds are reminiscent of Jimi Hendrix and Television, to truly intimate heartbreaking blues, going through soul and rock. Includes covers from The Who, Wilson Picket, and more. A dream come true for all Jeffrey Lee Pierce/The Gun Club fans all over the world - absolutely necessary. Comes in a deluxe gatefold jacket; Includes lyrics; 150 gram vinyl; Edition of 500. PRE-ORDER HERE - http://www.forcedexposure.com/Catalog/gun-club-the-in-my-room-lp/BANG.107LP.html Apparently this was a bonus CD on the Lucky Jim double CD release from Flow Records, which I've never heard. Nevertheless, I want this and I just wanted to start a Gun Club thread because they were so fucking amazing and underrated.

  19. I think that's how most of us feel me included, sadly there are still members here who get on their high horse and whinge about changing pressing numbers which fundamentally highlights a lack of understanding of the whole manufacturing process on their part. It happened in the Numero Group White Zombie box set thread too if memory serves as well as a few others. I'd agree its not worth delving deeper to see these disputes because they pan out exactly as you would imagine with most people siding against the aggrieved party. End of the day more records for the people who want them is a winner for everyone unless your whole love for the medium of vinyl is based on scarcity and what your resale portfolio looks like.

  20. Yeah, McPherson's posts are definitely on point and articulate; I get that it's all exaggeration and hyperbole, like I said. I've just never seen the "real" counterparts of what he's ridiculing. Like yesterday in that ATDI thread; there was an hour of confusion where it looked like Rise had replenished the "limited to 500" variant, and then removed the rarity from the description. Under the illusion that the /500 wasn't out of 500 at all, a few people commented something akin to "lol, Rise records... how typical", and that was that. I didn't see mention of crocodile tears or threats to cancel orders, or anything that would suggest the new boost in quantity would render their record inferior. I don't know, it just seems like a far reach for a parody. Maybe I should browse the Anberlin thread or something for context, though that's something I really have no desire to do. If someone is legitimately sweating their /200 variant actually being /250 or /400, or scoffs at a "one time only" boxset becoming available again, they can rightfully fuck off and give up on the world of vinyl while they're at it.

  22. as per usual, if anyone had heard anything about a release that big it'd be talked about here, /r/vinyl, and I'm sure some other vinyl news things would pick it up to. No news means that big label bureaucracy is going on if it is even in the works. I mean, shh, we're all hiding the important information in a separate group chat for the cool kids. Not like it'll sound particularly good if the FUTCT was anything to go off of...

  23. I think Bob's Burgers is great and I've watched the entire series multiple times. I think the dumb little songs are hilarious and a unique part of the show. I would probably rip my hair out if I had to listen to them all in a row, one after the other.

  24. Although I have to admit that my interested took a drastic turn after Frances, I made sure to give every Volta record a fair chance and a couple of attentive listens. I dug most of Noctourniquet, but their artistic direction after De-Loused just wasn't for me. Sounds great! It's nice to hear some positive feedback to their shows. I saw them in Berlin last year and it was pretty lackluster, but fine. I mean, when someone whose early output you enjoy releases ten albums you don't really like, you're not eager to listen to the next thirty. I skipped a lot of his solo recordings, not all, and listened to all of his band projects (just listened to Crystal Fairy a minute ago). I'm not one to dismiss former favorite artists' music too early and wouldn't say his stuff sucks, but over the last ten years or so I definitely got the impression that Omar wasn't the singular driving force behind ATD-I that made their music great and neither was Cedric. Loving all the Sparta records manifested that, for me. I don't expect them to do the exact same thing they did two decades ago, but if they want to do things differently, then why chose to do so under that name? These guys already have a band that's doing the whole sounds kinda like ATD-I but we're older now-thing in Antemasque and 'finally getting all the guys together' certainly doesn't play a role, so I fail to grasp the reasoning behind this reunion (some might say there's money to be made).

  27. My comment was a composite hyperbole of people losing it over label's magically doubling the limitation of a specific variant after a big sell out and represses of rare variants flat out. I don't necessarily think anyone would have that big of a reaction from a simple overrun, but I thought of it and went with and it was definitely partially inspired by recent threads such as the ATDI and Anberlin box and pretty much everything I've seen about people bitching about any change in production numbers because I think its ridiculous to give half a shit about how many are available unless you're waiting for your check to clear so you can just purchase ANY copy of the record and have it to enjoy the music. At this point, its kind of all the same to me. I know that's not a popular opinion but its how I feel. And it kind of drives me nuts to see every thread focus so much on the numbers and not on the music or the pressing quality. Every body has their own reason for buying records but I felt compelled to poke fun at the Limitation Gurus.

  29. Ah yes. There was definitely a big hullabaloo over the WZ box set and the overrun of the most limited color. It was funny to watch. I'm glad for the overrun on this one ISIS. Forgot to snag it from the MerchTable when it was up. So this is perfect for me now.

  31. Yeah I bought mine there about 2 years ago also. Sounds great, right? Think I paid $35, but they always let me bundle stuff and give me a deal. They had about 8 of them when I bought mine. They were all in the back room, and he let me go through and pick the "best" one (all pretty much in the same condition). The guy they bought those from had a huge 90s collection and he had everything in Disckeeper sleeves etc. Lots of great condition rarities. I bought A LOT of that guys collection. (NIN, MM, AIC, RATM, Mad Season etc etc)

  32. I actually bought the Simply Vinyl version from Welfare records last year. Went back two weeks later and there was another copy. I wonder how many they have. I forget how much I paid for it - I wanna say $50 but I also feel like I wouldn't pay that much for it so idk.

  36. The Warner Black album 2Lp Pressing is great.......if you want to invest in the 4Lp its good as well....but i think the 2Lp is just as good.......they are about the only presses out of that whole Repress series that i would highly recommend As for Older pressings........its almost always said that the Simply Vinyl Pressing of the Black Album is one of the best sounding Metallica Albums available.....i can vouch for it......the only issue is finding one in great condition at a good price.....i think i paid $70ish....maybe more about 2 years ago
