Ordered. Have fun going to jail law breaker!

In for this many...

Mac and Dennis, is this you?

As I am sure you all know, the recent re-issue of Deja Entendu has made some of us very happy to finally own and completed our Brand New record collections. While the RSD version was cool, it lacked the special packaging that we expected.. We wanted to see a return of the black slipcase, in which the original CD release came in. Why this wasn't done for the standard or RSD version (or even a deluxe version), is beyond me. Even 12 years later, I remember the awesome packaging that this CD had. Over the past month or so, I took matters into my own hands, Not as a cash grab (Trust me, I won't be paying my rent with this lol), but to try something new and give back to the fans and members of this board. After designing, sourcing and sampling, I have come up with a slipcase/sleeve that I am extremely happy with. It slips snug right over the recent re-issue of Deja Entendu, making it look almost exactly like the original CD release. They will be going live at www.dejasleeve.com on Monday at 9AM (PST). This will be a pre-order and these will ship on or before August 10th. They will be $5.99 for one and $9.99 for two (one for you and your lover, best friend, dad, etc.) plus shipping. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask! I'm super stoked about this, and I hope the people on these forums are too!

Can you write "jesse lacey" on mine in gold sharpie and scribbly cursive-style letters?

Soon Nick Alt will be joined by Nick Ctrl, and Nick Del who will usher in the Apocalypse.

I'm down 2 clown.

Mine are the gloves I use at work before I wipe someone's butt

Today a cool thing happened. I work at a church in Decatur, GA and I was finishing up editing some guitar overdubs for a Christmas album, but I left the hard drive with all of the tracks on it in my car. As I was walking through the lobby out to the parking lot I saw someone who greatly resembled Chris Freeman from Manchester Orchestra walking past me. I did a double take but kept walking. Later I had to go get something out of the a/v closet and into the room next door walk Andy, Robert, and Chris. So definitely Manchester Orchestra. At this point I am wondering if I have fallen asleep at my desk and am having one of those vivid dreams where you're at work and your favorite band shows up in tuxedos. Turns out they were groomsmen in a wedding. I was "that guy" and went in and introduced myself and they were very gracious and didn't make me feel like an ass for being a fanboy. Very cool dudes. So yea. Cool thing. How was your day?

If you have weed and need to use my lighter you 100% get to keep the lighter if you let me hit that shit.

Gracias Travis. Anything you can hint to that will be new tomorrow? Maybe some Blink?

Stamp 101-110 on the back of the next ten copies and write in silver sharpie "Chung King Can Suck It LP Slipcase"

WHAT THE FUCK ELSE ARE WE SUPPOSED TO DO WITH THIS THREAD?

This entire thread is inspired by one terrible "joke." So I'd say it's fitting.

If you see someone flipping it, just put em on blast since you will know who has what number

Fuck it. THIS JUST IN: First 100, hand numbered on back bottom corner.

Holy fucking shit

trip route, came home through Wyoming/Nebraska/Iowa. 3 hotels rooms for the entire trip, 1 night at my friends house in Western Montana and 8 nights in a tent. Drove up to Logan's Pass and hiked to Hidden Lake on our first full day at Glacier. Also hiked part of the Highline Trail when we got back down to the visitors center. The Garden Wall might be the most amazing glacial formation in the park that we saw. I'll post a picture of that later if I can find it Avalanche Creek on our last full day of hiking, we did this and the trail of Cedars as a good easy day hike. Avalanche Lake was incredible, i'll post a pic of that later, too. We hiked to Sperry Lake, this is Mount Brown, theres a lookout you can hike to up there on the Northern side, we obv. didnt do that. It was 95+ degrees that day, this was the most brutal hike we made. Saw Little Matterhorn and Edwards Mountain as well from here. It was really awesome, but after hiking 7 miles of constant elevation gain, we were exhausted.

I wanna see how hilarious one of these looks on the RSD version.

thanks andy! there's going to be some awesome colours

From the newsletter: MONDO is already the destination for the best of new release titles (i.e. Jurassic World and Mad Max: Fury Road,) animated features (The BoxTrolls, Batman: The Animated Series) and genre classics such as our forthcoming Aliens & Army Of Darkness releases - all with incredible original artwork. But now it will also be the home to original video game & TV soundtrack releases. Mondo records is the elder brother of the family and has grown up into quite the catch.

That checkout user experience may have been the best I have ever seen. Kudos!

Made it Charlotte safely for my VZW orientation! Super excited and nervous. Happy Bday Madie!

Nothing worse (co worker wise) than the guy who has 0 sense of humor AND is an ass-kisser.

Probably this lot:

I just want sandwiches.

Today, we adopted this little cutie. His name is Pumpkin!

So is this the long-rumored repress up for pre-order on Amazon? http://www.amazon.com/dp/B011V1WTB4/

The easiest way to avoid these ETR-related moral and ethical quandaries is to not listen to mid-2000s pop punk.

Guilty of everything sounds good, good music

If I own a record and it gets repressed in pink or rainbow I will 100% but it again. Pink vinyl is the dopest vinyl.

Something to think about (and it's easy to figure this out if your collection is on Discogs) is how many new albums you could buy if you sold off your variants (keep your favourite/artist variant). Most of the time its not a 1:1 ratio. Depending on the rarity you might be able to by 100 albums by selling 20 variants. I got into the variant game for The Chariot/'68 in order to do my part to help show that pressing albums on vinyl was a good investment for them. Now that I've had to break up my 100% complete collection Im thinking I'll still buy all new variants in order to support the band, but not worry about it if I miss out on one because it sell out. And I'd probably sell/trade off all but my favourite/rarest along the way.

Jessie Racy & his band, Brand New Goo.

Forgot to use discount code :/ wahh!

Sorry, I'll escort myself off of your lawn

Wednesday!!!!!

ordered. thanks!

When you really like Converge or AFI

Caught Colin taking a nap at the top of our stairs earlier.... He promptly woke up though! This is his first year going outside, the sun is making his face really ginger!

At least covers of Doug are getting pressed.

Is the lead time for making a record really 4 and a half months now? This doesn't ship until the end of November.

That splash page is a "new media" internet marketing solution to people googling "is VNYL a scam?" All the keywords are there- is, VNYL, a, scam- and I'm guessing they are trying to appear on the first page of those results and have some control over the info people get. Then the content of the landing page is some soulless, post-post-appropriated-hipsterism detached irony bullshit that only people on the outside of the sincere, authentic original movement think is funny or irreverent or cool. Like someone who saw Borat in 2005 and their takeaway was saying "ITS A NICE! I LIKE! MY WIFE!" loudly is what was funny about the character and missing the context and satirical message behind the most annoying, surface parts of the movie. This detached response to controversy is usually utilized by lower status groups deflecting authority and marginalizing the higher status group's power. Here, however, it's being used by a for-profit company that pissed off its paying customers in a "haters gonna hate" subtext and it feels like they think they are as cool and funny as counter-culture rebels telling authority and the mainstream to go kick rocks.

I also would have liked for them to give the amount they are donating instead of "a portion", but oh well. Money donated beats no money donated, and I'm not sitting here signing a cheque for an LGBT homeless organization.

You don't think it's odd that they have called people "fags" on social media (I'm not going to dig through Facebook posts to find it), and then they start printing these shirts? Obviously I'm all for the money being donated, but it seems odd.

It's funny you say that because that was my first thought as well. I wonder how many people could misconstrue the meaning behind the shirts.
