  1. Mint green haze or black? I sold something on eBay and I feel like making a dumb purchase I also re-listened to this today and realized that I'm a sucker and i'm just giving into this expensive release
  2. How's the sound on the boot? My section .80 is pretty lackluster so I've held off
  3. I am so goddamned broke but copped that /200 Do we know when the third Devinyl Split will be shipping out? blahhhhhhh my bank account is not happy right now Someone buy my extra luxembourgs/part of the whole singles to help me make up for these expenditures

  5. I really wanted just a stripped down listening copy Despite loving this album, I can't afford 40-45 prior to shipping costs ho'well
  6. Could you post some pictures of the stickers? I'm curious
  7. The artwork is as fun as the content on the album
  8. Woooooo I sold mine a few months back in hopes for a repress and here it is! I guess I'll wait until a non-SRC preorder link comes up, I've heard too many horror stories and haven't dealt with them since like 2011
  9. This album rules I got it in today via Amazon, it came with a poster but no stickers
  10. How do you like it? I keep debating on it but I don't think I actually have a need

Here 2. Star 3. Today, Again 4. Innocence 5. Blank Ocean (Album Ver.) 6. Dysphoria 7. Us 8. Pastel 9. Fetus 10. Belong "…Belong" is the 2nd full length album by Meishi Smile. "…Belong" is about representation of the you. A coming of age metamorphism. The indentation signifies hesitance when attempting to speak on behalf of your inner most self. The intrusive thoughts, the broken feelings. The half-hearted, yet overwhelming pain within. The idealism of fitting into a world that welcomes, yet ultimately rejects you. Wishing your whole life to be apart of something - reaching for it, yet when arriving there you realize the same people who accept you are everything that you hate. Thus you begin to hate yourself. To look inward is the only true change you wish to invoke- the only thing you truly belong to is your own. The album in lighter moments draws inspiration from the mechanical, yet emotionally crafted tone of '80s synthpop such as OMD, the melancholic shoegaze of The Radio Dept. the bubbling ambiance of Susumu Yokota and the EDM of Japan's Yasutaka Nakata. In bleaker moments, "…Belong" takes a nod from harsh noise acts such as Prurient, the melodically driven power electronics of Elite Gymnastics and the most reflective moments of 808's era Kanye West. Ultimately, the album addresses a narrative of duality, switching back and forth between the dichotomy of light and dark while retaining a sense of pop that is simultaneously introverted. Lyrically, the album explores subjects of guilt ("Star"), romantic disconnection experienced through the digital divide ("Today, Again"), impressionable youth and suicide ("Blank Ocean"), gender identity and depression ("Dysphoria"), the coping of death ("Pastel"), abortion ("Fetus") and societal violence ("Belong"). Isolated struggles and feelings that are faced in a myriad of ways through the individual experience. I am so, so, so, so broke but I grabbed a copy of the record
  12. For sure! It's been really nice to see the influx of his stuff as of late Horror manga is usually rad and we basically only have Ito and Umezu over here in the states, I'm hoping with all these releases we'll see some more interest and a lot more titles/artists
