cobannaboc Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Definitely in. Preordered Life Is Everywhere before and was not disappointed. Solid group. Are we going to get any singles/teasers prior to preorder? EHughes527 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will be the first physical form of this release.

highfives Posted July 18, 2017 Author Share Posted July 18, 2017 Honestly after the fact I wished they had done the Kickstarter for Miami rather than Force. I never listen to Force but I jam Miami all the time. Doesn't matter now though! EHughes527 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just overall sound quality or something more specific? I rejected them myself. I found a really annoying double 'pop' that existed across all first round tests between two songs during a quiet part. Otherwise they were nearly perfect. I just couldn't let that annoying pop make it to production. It deserved better. :-) ejc625 and highfives 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EHughes527 Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 I have about 5 additional rejected test presses from the first round that I haven't decided what to do with yet. Possibly just random inserts for orders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well it's a 2009 album. I'd keep your eyes open during 2019... I've had discussions with some of the other labels that AAS had released on (Fake Chapter, Expect Candy, Ericrock) and there has been talk of repressing BP86, and first time pressings of NFTA and maybe some other early EPs. Lots of material to work with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just a standard heavy splatter, but I'm calling that variant 'Sunburst' - it's not an technical term by any means. Call it a 'Sunburst' splatter if you'd like. :-p Similar to how we called our Sun Airway vinyl variant 'Cherry Sherbet' for a striped pattern.
