I respect their work ethic and pretty much pick up everything CF does at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spoon Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 No idea if this is supposed to be a Black Friday release but the Moon Sick EP was released RSD and even for that the coloured vinyl was still only available through CF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good eye! Looks like I need to keep an eye on my phone while at work for inevitable pre-order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Steele Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 I've actually got my shipping notification already for that pink rough trade version. Hope it'll be here tomorrow so I can give it a spin this weekend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldKentuckyShark Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 I assume the Castleface Pink is different from the indie pink at RT. I’ve never known Castle Face to do a variant on their website that you could get somewhere else. Plus the pink smoke name if different than the baby pink name. I just dont don’t want to buy duplicates Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spoon Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Pink smoke appears to be transparent wax (/300 in the US), UK baby pink is solid from what I’ve seen. OldKentuckyShark 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm willing to for one of my favorite bands...but I don't like it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swazzyswess Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 (edited) I definitely hesitated, but the album's been growing on me... and my LP collection is sorely lacking softer, more ambient records. So I took the plunge on the pink smoke. CF's prices are definitely creeping up though, at least for Oh Sees releases. EDIT: looks like pink smoke is sold out now.

raanmaarz Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Ordered a Grape Roll-Up edition, didn't want to spend $30 on this either but considering its CF's 100th release and the OCS 20th it had to be done... seems to be about 326 left on the store now?

I guess I don't mind because I'm happy to see/help the band receive some reward for their efforts. Far easier for me to justify than spending comparable sums on some reissue where the original artist is at best peripherally involved & minimally rewarded. raanmaarz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeromium Posted November 27, 2017 Author Share Posted November 27, 2017 For a 2LP with nice artwork, printed inner sleeves, and an etching, sure it's a fair price, but the album could have fit on a single LP so I don't know, it's pushing it. I wouldn't be making this comment if I was really into the album though. But I've only played it once, maybe it'll grow on me in time.

But I've only played it once, maybe it'll grow on me in time. I'm really digging it so far, couple listens in I got into the band circa 3&4, Get Stoved & Sucks Blood, so I've long been missing the wispy/folky sound of those early recordings. I don't think MOACOH can quite swing with Thee Hounds of Foggy Notion (Dwyer's best "wispy/folky" outing), but I'm ready to curl up in it for a while, see how it settles. Brigid's voice is especially nice in this context. Edited November 28, 2017 by conedust Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainHerbalLife Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Anyone want to trade a grape-roll-up for a coloured copy of "A Weird Exits"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
