I swear that this board is so anal about records. Its insane Jazz records wear to collectors because of the overall sound A blink 182 record, no many how times you spin it, will always sound like crap

There's a lot of besmirching going on around these parts...

You are a wonderful person.

Couldnt help myself

If this doesn't have I've Got Ten Friends, I'm keeping my OG.

red forest was handled by a different label, Science of Silence. Haven't had any problems with their other Mylene Sheath releases, so I'm expecting this one to get the same level of care (level: awesome!)

According to SRC they only have 35 copies left of They're Only Chasing Safety.

I wish death on kids all the time. That's frowned upon?

She has to stay until trial and possibly until her sentence is completed, duh.

This was a pretty good post, guys.

There are some good points and definitely some misinformation going on here. But, because vinyl varies so much in weight, color, shape, etc, it really comes down to your experience and what you prefer. One of the major selling points of 'audiophile' 180 gram vinyl is that it is virgin vinyl, meaning not recycled. This allows for quietest noise floor. I certainly prefer a 180 gram record for warp resistance and so forth, but a poorly mastered or pressed record will sound poor no matter what kind of vinyl it's on.

Did you find a $75 off $150 code?

This is my first year doing FF; i wound up with Eli and Romo. Should have started Romo, but i would have felt dirty doing so. It's alright; Eli will recover.

we're looking into sending a handful of these to SRC for cheaper shipping to US addresses

this. a million times, this.

LOL @ craft beer tag

Sir. I can't help but to correct you on your post, as you've been misinformed, and I'd hate for others to be misinformed by your post. The latest Floyd reissues are amonst the worst sounding Floyd vinyl ever pressed, and were most certainly NOT mastered from the original tapes. The packaging is good quality though. The 30th anniversarry is cheaper, although somewhat less readily available now that it's been discontinued, but a million times better than the more recent remaster, and any of the pressings that came before it. Of course, there are many who will prefer a german or UK 1st press from the 70's, but in my opinion, the 30th beats them all. If you don't believe me, get the new reissue, do an A/B comparison with the 30th anniversarry, and then try and honestly tell me that you don't agree with me. In general... 180 gram is sturdy, and feels nice, but it's more difficult to press well... plants have only recently mastered the art and science of 180 gram. Used to be alot of poorly pressed 180gm records in the 90's and 2000's. You can't just stick more plastic in the press, the record has a different profile, there's a different heating and cooling cycle, etc. But vinyl weight does not affect the sound. At all. It may dampen some resonances due to being thicker and heavier, but a good turntable will be set-up to minimize this and even it out across the board on ALL records - be they as thick as Edison Diamond Disc records, or as thin as a flexi. Long story short, 180 gram is nice, but not a selling point for me. I'd rather that the record was less expensive, or even better yet, that more money from the record's budget went into good mastering.

Bill Clinton is murdering it on the DNC's 2nd night right now.

really? was that necessary on vinyl record forum.

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

WHEW, for a second I thought I might actually miss out on something I want because only SRC is selling it. Will wait for literally anyone else to carry it. So, Tooth & Nail is quickly realizing the financial viability of pressing all their old records, eh? Or are Thousand Foot Krutch just not selling as well as they used to?

People, 180gm vinyl has NOTHING to do with sound quality. Vinyl weight has NO impact on the sound. 0. NONE. It is purely used to make a thicker, more sturdy record. A thicker record can resist warping better, and that is the ONLY benefit. I prefer 180g because I like the substance, the weight, the physical product, but it offers no sonic benefit.

it looks that way. any news on when the hot topic one will go up? Travis?

Always have to check this thread when it gets updated. Sorry to hear things didn't go how you hoped RyBread. I can't offer any solace other than to say like most other guys I think I've been in a situation, although no identical to yours, similar to it.

Relapse refers to this album internally as "Book Balancer."

Andy is a good buddy of mine, and a stellar dude. If you buy from him, you will never be disappointed.

I take it this is aimed towards me? I guess accidents don't ever happen. In any case these have been sold to Crusherdestroyer who is an awesome dude and is always a pleasure to do business with!
