lethalenforcer Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 These people do realize that you could cut the same grooves into a 45lb slab of wax and it'd sound the same as their 120g disc right?

Sounds terrible, there's only one pocket for the records so they had to cut the sound quality in half zuck, TheGhostOfRandySavage, mucusoffmybrain and 3 others 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lethalenforcer Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 There's no finer moment than when you slowly slit open the cellophane wrapping down the opening spine of your newly-delivered overpriced record reissue. After fumbling through the awkward process of tearing that baby off, you slowly turn her around, sneaking glances at every corner to make sure she's as perfect as the early mockup looked. Not a bumped corner or wrinkle in sight. You advance now as your heart rate increases. And then, the moment that can only be rivaled by actual coitus, you grab the opening slit with your fingertips to unveil its inner gatefold beauty and WHAT IN THE ABSOLUTE FUCK, IT'S JUST A SINGLE SLEEVE???

Shelby Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 They spent literally a hundred years coming up with the best material composition for records only for VMP neckbeards to disprove it within a month of collecting.

Canuckle Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 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... pepperonigin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zuck Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 Gatefolds are pretty rare for hip-hop records. I guess I didn't read the description too well, 'cause I wasn't even expecting it to be a gatefold. Now that I know that it was, that shits going back until I get a satisfactory explanation as to why they lied to me & they send out the gatefold jacket that I'm owed!

Dougie Jones Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 If anyone gets a Chvrches record they don't need I'd be happy to buy it. That being said, I find out tomorrow if I got it with my shipment. Just wanted dibs. DIBS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pepperonigin Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 I generally like the direction VMP has gone in and they get me into stuff I wouldn’t normally check out but those forums are absolutely insufferable and a very scary place indeed.

If you work with kids (e.g. a teacher) it's not uncommon. My first year teaching (3rd grade) my most troubled student told me "I'm gone tell my momma you hit me so you get fired." Of course, neither ever happened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both have their upsides and downsides and I think it depends what downsides you prefer to tolerate. I'm too soft to rage into threads and come at people (or have people come at me) so I definitely spend more time tolerating the downsides of VMP. YOU GET IN HERE AND RAGE OR YOU GET THE FUCK OUT!
