radiatorhums Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Think I'm just going to grab black. $7.00 is a bit of a price gouge for a color variant. I get a few dollars more, but 7? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lethalenforcer Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Did you just keep going between cart and check out until it worked? Just continually refresh the page that says Sold Out until it goes through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get a few dollars more, but 7? yeah, it was like that last time and the most expensive option ended up looking the coolest (orange/black). edit: the red/black was cool as well.

chunkrock Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 I would love to get that deluxe but $48 US after shipping to Canada is too rich for me. That would be likely $75 Canadian after conversion. I'll either buy the album from him in New York at the show or just get it from a record store in Toronto.

I don't have a lot of Sacred Bones LPs, but I do have both of the previous John Carpenter releases from them and the black version sounded substantially better than the special/deluxe editions in both cases, especially the Remixed LP. In brief: Fret not! $18 is more than fair for this LP and it will probably have the best fidelity as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hallowken78 Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 Isn't the standard the blue and white swirl? Has there been any confirmation of a black pressing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffthomas84 Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 In on the /500 variant when they went up, can't get released soon enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hallowken78 Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 No and yes, respectively. Cool, do you know where you saw this? I know on facebook they said their blue and white swirl retail variant was limited to 2500....that's quite a few copies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radiatorhums Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 Got my purple and white swirl in today and the color is a bit of a let down. Kind of reminds me of those muddy "whatever pellets we have left" runs that No Idea does from time to time. In spite of that, I'm still very stoked to listen to it! Also got the Dark Star reissue in, but that probably won't get much attention right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostTrail Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 So I messed up and bought tickets to his show in Chicago (Saturday, July 16th) when they went on sale a few weeks back and just now realized I won't be able to make it. If anyone would like them, let me know. I'd sell them at a bit of a discount since they're still available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lethalenforcer Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 This album is fantastic. Agreed, it's really good. My deluxe is pretty much a straightforward coke bottle. I spot one little gloop of green. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blumplum Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 Agreed, it's really good. My deluxe is pretty much a straightforward coke bottle. I spot one little gloop of green. Mine is entirely coke bottle, no trace of green. The packaging is incredible and the album is excellent so I don't really care. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiatorhums Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 This album is fantastic. I think I like it more than the last one, which I enjoyed immensely. hallowken78 and jack8urt0n 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jack8urt0n Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 I think I like it more than the last one, which I enjoyed immensely. Yup. I skip around tracks on the first one, but I listen to this all the way through every time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radiatorhums Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 I could have swore that one of these was mentioned here, but I can't seem to find the post. Anyway, Sacred Bones is releasing two 12"s with rerecorded themes with the Lost Themes bandmates. Don't see them for sale on Sacred Bones, but Bullmoose has them up for preorder. A little expensive for what they are. Think I'm going to need to hear them first.

djghost1976 Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 Sacred Bones put up 400 'mystery color' vinyl options for these two releases. Hard to justify $25 shipped for two songs, but I might see what this mystery vinyl is all about: http://www.sacredbonesrecords.com/collections/frontpage/products/sbr156-john-carpenter-halloween-b-w-escape-from-new-york http://www.sacredbonesrecords.com/collections/frontpage/products/sbr157-john-carpenter-assault-on-precinct-13-b-w-the-fog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
