Like I said, I'm definitely in, but I wouldn't be able to spearhead it. Judging by how little known these guys are, I think we can afford to wait until our other thread regulars chime in with their takes.

 

I will say, though, the pics of the vinyl on the Bandcamp page are absolutely beautiful. Between the screen-print, the matte black, the 180g wax, and the hand-numbering, I know I, at least, will be picking one up regardless.

I don't see the information about the vinyl on the band camp page, but I gave it a listen and that's a must buy!

Hmmm...looks like they removed it. Not sure why. At any rate, I sent Tim at Dingleberry a note (I've bought from him before) so I'll let you guys know when I receive the quote.

Even the bands you like think you should get a half decent table first.

i hope it's not because they're all gone......

Nope, Tim's got plenty and I have one on hold on a potential trade from Gabor @ Paprika Records, but I'm probably gonna have to drop that one because I'm also gonna grab a Black Hourglass 10" from Tim that I've been wanting for a while. If you're fine with waiting there will be more up on Discogs within the next couple of weeks.

Yeahhhhh but the discogs ones are inflated!  Unless he won't be selling them above cost?  There were 3 on Discogs, now only 1, but everyone was selling them for 35euros and I'm pretttttttty sure on Bandcamp they were only 20?  Regardless,  I definitely want one of these.  So however that can happen, please mark me down.

Happening soon!  There's a store down in Poughkeepsie called Darkside Records and I have a 10% off coupon for any new turntable in the month of January.  I just can't decide yet between the Orbit or the Carbon Debut....   they had both, plus some others that looked really nice.

Beautiful, thank you so much man!  Do we want to wait and see about a group-buy though?  Because I'm good with that.... I just want to make sure we all get copies if we want them!

Pulled the trigger on the Sleepmakeswaves PO last night.  Figured I'd do my part to help the campaign.  Name in the liner notes, bitches LOL.

I almost did this too but I just don't have the money for that right now....  the Riff of the Week 3 was REALLY good, and the first one where I was like "oh man I want to hear that again."  I think it was Riff 3, it was the one where the lead guitar had this nice little melody line that he was playing high up the neck.

I actually ended up completing the trade (the one I said I was gonna back out on), so I've got a copy coming my way. Doesn't look like there's enough interest for a group buy so I'd say just go for it. You and I can just stir up jealousy when we post pics of our copies once they come in.

Found this album from last year in My Music file - some decent instrument postmetal. Reminds me a bit of early PSOTY, maybe not quite as dense. Starts off with a 10 minute track, hang in there. Thank you to whomever recommended it here. I didn't pay 8 quid for it, must have been free back then.

Tacoma Narrows Bridge Disaster - Wires/Dream\Wires

 

I'm just now listening to this album after seeing it pop up as a "Recommended artist" for PSOTY.  6 minutes into the first song and I'm loving it haha.  Hope the rest is this good!  A less dense PSOTY is a dead on description thus far.

I recall hearing that TNBD album a few years back and thinking it was decent.  Definitely has some really solid moments – enough to keep around in my library this whole time – but as a whole I wasn't completely floored.  I should revisit it.  Agreed with Don's description, too.

Start to finish it's very solid.  Not much variation throughout but if you like this style of post-metal it's very good.  Not a lot of singular moments that make you say "wow", but very consistent.

Well, looks like the Tertia test press is mine. I'm curious to see what number he has since @Sasan says he has the same number (#8/10).

Asked for pictures just in case. Haha. But I did manage to get it for a really good price. My Caspian Sheath test press collection is complete now. Never though I'd say that.

Pretty sure mine is #8...since the pics on discogs were uploaded by myself :D

Has there been "another" test press like from newer pressings?! Mine is def. from the very first presses..

There hasn't. My guess is he just got the number wrong off the top of his head; been there. I'll let you know what he says / when he sends a picture.

I gotta check this out, anything that's like early PSOTY should be a massive win in my book.  I just managed to score a 2nd copy of "....And The Sky Fell" for only $5 off Discogs.  Super rare, totally worth having a double.  "I Am The Ocean" is one of my favorite songs now.  I wish this got pressed!
