cobannaboc Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 Listened to this again last night and it put me over the edge. Decided to grab a 3 month for Secretly and pick up the clear. I dig the Foxygen album and excited for Japanese Breakfast's new album so don't see it as making any sacrifice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that is the record store marking the shrink wrap with a sharpie to keep inventory of their silver pressings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YouTwo Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 Got my clear copy yesterday. I was holding off to get the vinyl to listen. Wow! This album fantastic. And the clear vinyl sounds great. It's going to be hard to get this one off my table. Mars, jrodan and cobannaboc 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charles1028 Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 (edited) Loving this album but not thrilled with the way the silver sounds on my setup. Maybe I got a dud? I have some distortion on the first two tracks of side A. Rechecked my cart alignment and tracking force and made a few tweaks. Things did improved but I'm still experiencing less that optimum sound quality. How's the black pressing sound? However, it was a good exercise to recheck my alignment and tracking force settings. Things were a bit off and the tweaks I've made have definitely improved the overall sounds of my setup. So if anything, there's that.

Shelby Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 I just spun through my copy for the first time and although the silver pressing isn't amazing or anything I didn't have a problem with it. I was afraid of IGD on track 8 but it sounded pretty quiet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrodan Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 so Slowdive is doing more US dates this fall and are playing the Fox Theater in Oakland on October 28. tomorrow tickets go on sale with a Spotify presale code. does anyone here have Spotify and know what the presale code will be? I will be forever in your debt if you can hook it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glass realms Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 I'm really hoping that they announce an LA show between Oakland and Denver shows. It would be really silly of them not to do a headline show here considering they sold out 2 nights in LA during the first reunion tour. ethereal 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm looking at that show myself, as a heads up. I imagine it's a promo code of sorts. jrodan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CatsNJazz Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 I just started a free trial with spotify, how do I get this presale code?! Im so broke but I can't miss the Denver date even though Im probably gonna end up going alone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fish Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 I'll definitely be going to the Detroit gig. I somehow missed them last time they toured and this new album is fantastic. No worry about the show here selling out anytime soon thankfully for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm definitely hoping for this as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tacosupremekohl Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 the presale code is SLOMO. I work for a venue that has them on this tour. jrodan, Derek™ and untiliwakeup 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As grateful as I am for this, a tiny part of me almost wishes you hadn't said anything since a lot of promo codes tend to be song titles or album titles in all caps, without spaces. Since the album title seemed a little obvious, and there weren't too many song titles to test, I was going to start at the top tomorrow morning and try my luck. I imagine I would've just about shat myself if my first attempt granted me access. I don't know if I'll ever be able to fully forgive you for robbing me of that opportunity. (But really. Thank you.)

Second this! Was able to grab some Mezzanine seats in Oakland! Typically I like to be on the floor but Slowdive seems like the type I'll want to be back a bit and relax and just take the show in. jrodan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally don't drink but I totally appreciate the sentiment, thank you. I'm stoked you were able to grab a ticket. I'm not sure how many were available but the lady and I both secured ours with minimal fuss. Should be a great show, especially after reading some of this thread's posts about their live performance. jrodan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't drink either haha! that is why I offered a 'generic' drink. would be happy to grab you a seltzer if you would like. either that or a pull or two off my weed pen if that is up your alley.
