The Official 'Vinyl Me, Please' thread.
Canuckle replied to Deoxitizer's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
My guess is this will follow a similar setup to the recent QOTSA resissues with new presses being on black, but just a guess. VMP with a great lineup this month; The Roots, El-P and Aretha. -

PO Now: Beck - Hyperspace
Canuckle replied to lethalenforcer's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Even Morning Phase felt like a descent into something that didn't hold up to Beck's left of centre approach. For me, his last great song was this: -
PO: clipping. - There Existed an Addiction to Blood

Ya, S&M never really hit for me, but love their first LP. This first single has me back in on them! -
Jose Gonzalez & The String Theory - Live in Europe

Also still waiting.... starting to consider just raising a Paypal claim and ordering what he he selling at the shows, because I really want this. -
Sigur Rós - ágætis byrjun expanded limited edition
Canuckle replied to freverend's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
They hold a festival that brings in thousands of fans that would never visit Iceland and thousands of dollars in buziness.... annnnd a big f u. Happy to see they are cooperating, but this feels a little tone def for a country that routinely gives deep discounts on flights if they have a layover in Iceland just to get people in the door. -

I'm still waiting on the test press.... anyone else receive theirs? -
Stabbing Westward WBBP and DD (Coming Soon-ish?)
Canuckle replied to thesecrets0308's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Personally, I found the bundles of both variants for the same record to be a bit odd... is there really that much demand for BOTH variants that a bundle needed to be offered? Not to mention no bundle of the two most common variants but one for the more limited variants... Either way, stoked to have got these before they totally sold out. Looks like the /700 variants as solo pieces are only left- 51 replies

Jose Gonzalez & The String Theory - Live in Europe
Canuckle replied to fondfarewell's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Thanks! Grabbed a TP while I could... Pricey as hell for a 2LP ($30 shipping to Canada...) but he's one of my favorites so I can dig it. -
Animal Collective - Tangerine Reef (8/17)
Canuckle replied to timsimmons's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I can only assume there will be a better walk-through of this 'experience' at some point outside of Domino. Still not sure if this is an album proper or just an extension of an experiment? https://pitchfork.com/news/animal-collective-announce-new-album-tangerine-reef-share-new-song-listen/ Teaser video: -

I'm less worried about celebrity X who hocks product Y than the pleebs who buy product Y because of Celebrity X. -
[PO Soon] Death Grips - Year of the Snitch
Canuckle replied to ethereal's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Classic (BLACK) in the listing but clear in the description... Roll a dice with that one. -
PO Now: The Black Queen - Infinite Games
Canuckle replied to Carden's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I have all the variants and singles from their first album... and probably want to unload them all outside the clear variant. Some decent tunes but the demand for their limited shit is nuts for the actual quality of the music. They are playing right into the collectors hands and doing well at it. (Don't get me wrong, I like em! but your kinda feeling yourself a bit when you release 233 hand numbered copies of various album covers knowing full well they will be sold out within 6 hours of release) -
PO Now: Liars - 1/1 OST
Canuckle replied to lethalenforcer's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Really interested in this given it's during their 'Mess' days. Would love to hear more first though. -
I believe it is a Spotify fan pressing... meaning NIN will not be sending out an e-mail. As others have mentioned, this may just be an exclusive press that someone got the rights to and NIN didn't really have much to do with it.

The Official 'Vinyl Me, Please' thread.
Canuckle replied to Deoxitizer's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Mine was top notch quality, but the 7 inch sounded mehhhh. Some of the best quality pressings in SWAPS from my ears are Panda Bear and Nils Frahm if you are into any of those. Both are unique to VMP (45RPM remaster for Panda; alternative album cover for Nils). I'll also prop up The Books and Main Source if you want to try something a bit different in regards to experimental or 90's rap. -
Off to ETS to see the salt that will be spewed by the NIN collectors... As others have mentioned, NIN's fanbase is filled to the brim with completionists due to the 'halo' model. This non-advertised, after the black came out, listing will drive some of em bonkers. Glad I got in... but at $42 CAD... it stings.

I will say once NIN fans pick up on this, they will buy it and it will be gone. It runs about 2x the cost of the black version, but if you are going to kick yourself in the future about missing it, I'd go for it.

New song is tits! Also just spent way too much on a 6 song EP/LP white version but screw it. My favorite band.

The Official 'Vinyl Me, Please' thread.
Canuckle replied to Deoxitizer's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
As @YouTwo mentioned, you can sign up and swap for Clipse OR you can also sign up and probably buy it from the store in time. All Essential titles go up in the store eventually, so just keep an eye out here https://app.vinylmeplease.com/products/essentials I love the TVOTR pick. It is truly an essential album from the 2000s, in my opinion. Feels like they focused on one of the bands best efforts versus the Beach House pick. And frankly, given the resurgence of reissues / represses in general, VMP is going to have a very hard time finding OOP but really sought after records going forward. Most of the ones people clamour for (e.g., SFTD) have probably been explored ad nauseam. So if they are going to repress readily available albums, I prefer they choose the best of the best from bands that others may not have given a hard listen to. -
PO Soon: Washed Out - Mr. Mellow
Canuckle replied to lethalenforcer's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I agree with how disappointing this was, especially given the length and previous offerings. Glad to see some people enjoyed it. -
The Official 'Vinyl Me, Please' thread.
Canuckle replied to Deoxitizer's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I post more on the VMP side as a lot of their exclusives and store variants actually end up cheaper for us Canucks than ordering direct through US/EU stores. I'm a big supporter and really enjoy how they expose me to music I wouldn't find on my own given time constraints, where I look, etc. That said, the forum is toxic as heck sometimes. There's a group of on/off/disgruntled members that struggle to not sweat the small stuff, and I just don't get it (I should, it's the god damn internet...). When I log on, 1/2 the time it feels like I walked into a restaurant with a bunch of people who HATE the restaurant but keep coming back to let the chefs and management know how they fucked up, or like a child who keeps telling you they are going to call the social services on you but you know they never will. Give up the ghost, please... Anyways, I do want to say that all communities have their issues, as I think VC can sometimes also display those aggressive / over-obsessive tendencies. But damn, the VMP forum takes it to another level sometimes... -

AM will be available for a bit so you can SWAP this month for a different selection or Black Sabbeth(BS). If you are in for AM/BS I think you will find something else to enjoy in the swap selections in a 3 month membership. - Order BS this month (if possible?) - Listen to swap options over the next month. - Decide on a swap option or ROTM (probably Clipse if you are into hip hop) - Grab AM, ROTM or both (buy AM from store)
