Adam10647 Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Update, Wednesday, June 10 (2015)…Having received the test pressings for Downward several months ago, I ended up not being 100% satisfied with the sound and am starting over. We are remastering and re-cutting lacquers this week. Sorry for the delay. The next obvious question is will we have them for sale during our august and September touring. I would assume not, due to the amount of time pressing plants need these days to keep up with their workload. But I’ll keep the project moving. jack8urt0n 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drds89 Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Hum AND Failure in August. Should tide me over until he gets DIH just right - no rush here either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highfives Posted June 11, 2015 Author Share Posted June 11, 2015 So the guy who runs the HUM Facebook page mentioned the band wanted to have full control over it. The band also just created an official Instagram (@Hummusic). So it seems like they're gearing up for something. Hopefully it's a new record! https://www.facebook.com/HUMunofficial/posts/10152967887193697 drds89 and throwgncpr 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DigitalZombie Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 If you go to add them on Instagram, whatever you do don't follow "hum_music" by mistake. I played one of the videos to see if it was actually the real Hum and I nearly threw my phone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shinji Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Am I in the minority of thinking You'd Prefer An Astronaut is my least favorite? It goes: 1. Downward 2. Electra 3. YPAA for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam10647 Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Ha I got 3 notices last night from Discogs that this album was available all for over $250. Apparently a new price point has been set. Can't wait for the repress! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derby625 Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Glad I jumped on mine when it popped up for $63 a long while back. I hesitated and had to convince the wife to let me get it. Still no idea how I got her to say yes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tape Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Glad I jumped on mine for $12 on January 27, 1998. NorrisNuts 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drds89 Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Glad I jumped on mine for $12 on January 27, 1998. even taking into account conservative inflation of 45%, that's less than $18 today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tape Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 I mean I estimated the $12. I don't remember what the price was exactly but I feel like most LPs were in that price neighborhood at the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
