I second the banhammer. Feels like the wild west if dudes like that are able to just run amok in here. Aenima is a completely flawless album IMO but it also hits me in a nostalgic place given where I was in life/age when it was released.

Yeah but more importantly, it's not actually up. Dude is just continuing the "giant douche hijacking this thread" theme he had going for him.

I enjoyed the VMP article on Tyler Childers and LOVE his new album, so I sent an email suggesting VMP pursue a release of it. They emailed back a few minutes later and indicated they passed it along to their music curation team. The indie exclusive version of this is super hard to find (1000 total pressed) and is going for a lot on the bay already. I'd encourage anyone who digs his music to send a request!

Sad indeed. I was lucky enough to see them at Glasslands in Brooklyn in 2012. Easily one of the best venue/artist pairings I’ve witnessed.

I wasn't angry because I didn't know it existed until now! Regardless, thanks for the heads up on the Amazon bargain!

I absolutely had to scoop up the Guru album this month but I'm really intrigued by this month's release. Might have to get it next month depending on the next ROTM. I didn't join this club expecting (or wanting) reissues of fairly mainstream albums so I'm pretty glad they went this route for Feb.

Super helpful. Thanks!

Is there any specific logic to what you're able to swap for? If the ROTM is Play, I'd probably swap for Jazzmatazz if possible. It's not always clear to me what's available for swapping but I could just be dense.

This is just giving me analysis paralysis and stressing me out. Leaning toward the Kickstarter and Wax Mage glow in the dark. I wonder if VMP will press one?

I swear I made it all the way through using PayPal but haven't received a confirmation email or notification from PayPal. Ugh.

CF has two variants of this right now. It was in their latest newsletter. https://www.castlefacerecords.com/products/king-gizzard-the-lizard-wizard-im-in-your-mind-fuzz

I haven't seen this posted yet but CF repressed this and it was noted in their latest newsletter. Half Berry, Half Blender. https://www.castlefacerecords.com/products/king-gizzard-quarters

Man this Biggie release looks purdy. Almost got a copy recently. Glad I didn't!

Yeah. I have this issue, but they legit just sent it to me for free so I didn't complain.

I can see the draw for this month's album but I'm new enough to VMP that there are still more must-haves in I can swap for. Swapped for Methyl Ethel. Surprised there are still some out there since it's /500. Great album.

You guys do realize that by quoting his annoying post, you're just giving him more exposure....

Man if you just joined VMP to get re-releases of albums that everyone knows are great, I think you're going to be disappointed. The big draw for me was the discovery. It makes me feel like a kid again to discover a new artist, learn about their process, their story etc... I actually think I'd leave VMP if they only released albums that were massive hits in their day.

Guess I'm in the minority here but I love Morby (and Woods). Excited for this one.

This!

Yeah, just realized that myself. My bad!

Beyonce down to 275 FYI. Not sure what it started at.

Got one! This is going to be way more intense as more people join VMP.

Gah!!! Not werking! I'm just gonna be patient and come back in 20 mins. Might lose it otherwise.

Thanks! It really is. I feel like I like it even more with each listen. I had issues with the Beck release but didn't complain because they literally just gave it to me for free.

On another topic, can anyone vouch for the sound quality on the Methyl Ethel release? I've really been enjoying that album and might have to grab one.
