Negron Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 New album has me excited! But if these are just straight re-issues on colour, no re-mix/master, I'll stick with my Swami versions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pepperonigin Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 I'm only missing Auto Midnight so I'll grab that one. Can't wait for the new album and to see them next Thursday. Such a great fucking band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if it pushes anyone over the fence or not, but it looks like Automatic Midnight is on orange, Suicide Invoice is on yellow, and Audit In Progress is on pink. Odd choices for 2 of the 3.

Audit was already pressed on red. Reason for the orange color per Wikipedia: “As a visual artist and illustrator Froberg provided all of the artwork for the album. Although the artwork and cover themselves are black on white, the CDrelease is packaged in a translucent orange jewel case and the LP in translucent orange shrink wrap, giving the packaged album an orange color.” GradedOnACurve 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odd choices for 2 of the 3. i think the orange for auto midnight is cuz the cd was in a clear orange case back in the day. pink for audit probably cuz the og was in red edit: @MtrCtyWx beat me to it hahaha Edited November 7, 2017 by hookedonsonics correction MtrCtyWx and GradedOnACurve 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GradedOnACurve Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 Oh right got it. On the fence though. A remix, especially of Automatic Midnight, would have been nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeromium Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 Orange jewel case or not, with a white sleeve you could really have any color vinyl for Automatic Midnight and I wouldn't complain. But I'm really not feeling the pink vinyl paired with the red Audit in Progress sleeve. That's my least favorite so I'm not hard-pressed to get it anyway. I have Suicide Invoice, may pick up Auto Midnight at some point. Definitely excited for the new album and seeing them Sunday night! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dhesketh Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 Had no idea they were playing. Seattle tickets sold out of course. Wish I would pay more attention to shit like this. And even though I already have these records I'll probably pick up the reissues for the hell of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a feeling after Drive Like Jehu sold out at Showbox much earlier than I expected (I held out thinking I had plenty of time), that Chop Suey would sell out really fast. And it did.

Moglog Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 Just saw them last night in Cambridge and they fucking RIPPED. I’ve seen RFTC, Jehu, Obits, and honestly think this might have been the best. The new songs have me pumped too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pepperonigin Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 I had to sell my tickets to the show in brooklyn at the last minute. So disappointed I missed it. They’re an excellent band to see live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a fucking blast that was. I've not seen the other bands but that was definitely one of the most ripping shows I've seen in some time.

NapalmBrain Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 john golden does wonderful work and is capable of mastering all analog (unsure if these were recorded to tape or not), I have many albums with his name in the deadwax and they are all killer. I kinda forgot about these, I need to get them all at some point will probably start with Suicide Invoice as its my fav Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't expect they used the same stampers for some reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously the recordings were remastered by him from the original tapes for all formats (CD/MC/LP). It does not imply he also cut the lacquers though. It's a different step in the process. I don't know if he cuts lacquers at all? Edited January 25, 2018 by Iggy_Pilot typo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on the "GOLDEN" stamp w/ no other initials, you have to figure John cut the lacquers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Swami pressings have GOLDEN in the run-out. I don't know about the Sub Pop reissues. But those are the ones which were remastered by Dave Gardner. Remains unanswered who cut lacquers for the reissues unfortunately... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
