    180 Gram vinyl question

    Someone please kill me if I ever become so anal that I start weighing my 180gm records to make sure they actually weigh 180gm.

  5. That's about right. The "audiophile" and "180 gram" thing is becoming a bit of a marketing tool. THough most 180 gram pressingare i my opinion are better from my experience. It jueust seems to have a better, more full/ solid sound. Lighter vinyl can definetely suind pretty good too so it's not a deciding factor. I would also think that if a band / label were to press something on 180g (More money) they would be putting more effort in the actual mastering / editing. It also matters who mixes the the recording. Is it "Master from original analog tpape" and by whome. I don't know names of who are good but most 180 gram true repress (Remastered from og tapes) i have are amazing. What mainly comes to mind is the new pressing of pInk Floyd's Wall, Wish you Were HEre, and Dark Side of the moon. The reveiws are off the chart on those things. I bought Wish You Were Here for 28$ at Hot Topic cause i was itchin for a vinyl fix. When spun theat haevy peice of wax it blew my mind the clarity, "soundstage" as they call, and the surface is so freekin quite. I quickly understood why it cost my near 30$ (Also included some super heavy stock sleaves, poster, postcrd, download car). I then did some research on why it was so damn good. I found the reviews saying "Re mastered from original analog tapes" "Dead silent surface noise" "high quality german vinyl" which was pressed at the EMI plant i beleive. So that summed it up. I Then bought The Wall (Frikin expesive) and am not disapointed at all. Worth every penny if you're gonna keep this in excellent shape and blow your friends (The ones that aren;t too cool for Floy) and parents (My dad couldn.t beleive he was hearing such goodness< he sad "Man, this just sounds so damn good") and i have gotten many compliments on my setup (Which i return to say "it's really the vinyl" even though i got a pretty good setup. polk monitor 70s (100 watt's per channel and fake bi-amped out of my Onkyo receiver, and Klipsch RW 12".) I am waiting for Hot Topic Cash to get Dark Side (I have the 25th anniversy edistion and can only imagine the difference, based on Wall and Shine). To get it at a steal. Also, i wam pretty dissapointed on my flimsy Tomahawk vinyl where it probably is aroun 100 grams and the holes had to by cdug out with my knifr to fit the record player. And the bass less songs on their newest alsbumb. The CD makes my system go BOOM but the vinyl falls flat. Very disspointed. BS. Maybe mike patton is so in the digital age there's no point in trying to put his stuff on vinyl, hence why you don't see much. (Totally fine with that) Also, neil youg does some insane quality, and pricey, represses. Then new Sixto Repress is pretty darn good too, especially for 18.99 from my local record store. There seems to be the just put it on vinyl and color some copies and the kids will buy it crowd, and then the i want it mastered for vinyl and good quality crowd. I used to be obsessed with collecting and colors and what not but since i've got a good table and system i would much rather have my 180g black copy. I've been selling colored copies of NOFX for hundred, turn around and buy it baclk on black plus a few more records. I love it! Well sorry for rambling. And no spell check I

    "do we really need to be thanked for supporting a union between two people who obviously make each other extremely happy?" honestly in this day and age, yes...still. i cannot even tell you how good it feels that my family (some extended too) ask constantly about Gina (my gf) and want to meet her etc etc...because for every family like mine...there's one that's not so great. also, she's on a plane right now! she's gonna be here until next wednesday, so fucking excited!!

  9. All orders have been shipped. Thanks to everyone who order from us! I really hope you enjoy it! Your support means the world to me! Please tell your friends about the band and give them the download code if you don't need it and a sticker or two. I gave extras to everyone. I'll have pictures soon. I'm just trying to get them to look professional. Getting the colors I show up right in a photo is really though. Also, big ups to whoever had me draw a dinosaur fighting a bear on the box. The mail woman gave me a weird look when I handed her that one. I hope you like it, I'm bad no stretch of the imagination an artist. Thanks again guys!

  13. When the summer12 and sub codes went out it was stated that they don't work for pre-orders or distro items. I couldn't figure out how to save on buying the split with the tape, but I'll live without that dollar.

    8 Seconds & The Florida Theater Of Gainesville are next door to one another, and Stereo (formerly Abbey Road) and Durty Nelly's are directly across the street from those two clubs. The Atlantic is about two blocks east of there, and the High Dive is about two blocks south of there. 1982 and the Laboratory are about 6-8 blocks west of there. All in all, everything is within a 15-minute walk from any given venue, give or take a few minutes.

    I thought I've seen a map posted for Fests in the past, but I'm not seeing it this year. If it doesn't show up they should have one at registration.

  19. No prob! There will be more copies soon enough on standard weight black vinyl. Like I said, I have 250-275 or so that the plant screwed up and pressed by mistake (they were supposed to do 180g). Probably do something a little different for the covers. Maybe switch up the color of the paper or ink or something. MIX IT UP.

    You talk to him, he may really need somebody to talk to right now. If he's into you, get over it, just be flattered and advise him that you're straight and hope maybe you two can be friends. Maybe he was so persistent in the past because he wasn't sure what was going on exactly and things have changed. My best friend in the universe is gay and (finally) just came out last year, he gets drunk and gets flirty, I don't let it bother me, I just always have to remind him that even my own penis frightens me.

  31. Haha, if I had pressed it, it would have been $12-13 ppd. $17 for a single LP that for all intents and purposes everybody who buys already HAS a CD copy of? Talk about entitlement. Nothing sillier than seeing single LPs for $20-25 next to double and triple LPs for the same price.

  35. I have some duplicators and will duplicate them for free. Send me tapes and files, I will duplicate them. I am not setup for imprinting or anything else, just duplicating. Would like a few of the finished product though... Usually do runs of about 100 or less. only costs are tapes/shipping both ways.
