I don't often comment on here, but statements like these make me cringe. ITR is a consistently fantastic label. Not only do they remain committed to putting out killer releases, but in the increasing age of "limited edition" releases by labels who refuse to even acknowledge a pressing number, ITR remains true to their tradition of 200 colored copies at the same price as the standard editions. As well, though I don't know him personally, all communications / questions / emails I've ever had with Larry have been friendly and informative-- truly I'd describe him as a label owner who recognizes and appreciates dedicated fans of the label. "Really don't know what we spent $80 on"? You spent $80 on EXACTLY what was advertised. A limited edition pressing of the new Fuzz record on gold vinyl, limited to 300 copies, with a cover and poster unique to this release. Based on that description, did you really think this was going to cost $75 to produce? My assumption is that the high price was partially intended to cut down on flippers / a "middle man" market. It gets a lot of the money many would have spent on the secondary market (if this had been priced at say $30 and snatched up by those intending to flip) DIRECTLY to the label, which will be funneled right back into putting out more kick ass music. Larry clearly recognizes the popularity of Ty / Fuzz right now and is using that to generate funds for his label (300 copies is still extremely limited for a group as popular as Fuzz) while also cutting down on the number of people profiting off of flipped copies... obviously, the higher price will not eliminate flippers, but it has to have helped cut down a bit and ITR is still able to get a limited edition into the hands of collectors. Bottom line: If sending a extra money to a label I love (and who has provided me with countless great records / limited editions over the years) and keeping that money away from someone on discogs flipping a copy for 3-4 times the cost = getting ripped off that's a pretty sad comment on the state of record collecting these days.

Copelandkid, please give us a detailed analysis of why a highly sought after record has only sold 235/1000 in the few weeks following it's release

Fuck this guy. "hey guys great show, but I feel I'm owed money to pay for my night can you sign this record so I can make more money than you off your work and throw it online right when I get home? Hey thanks wow!"-you at the show.

Did this leak yet?

Hoping for the 18th

MerchNow really needs to fuck off with these "bundles".

Seriously though, a signature (or signatures) really don't make it worth anymore than what you paid for it. In fact, now that cover is destroyed by those scribbles. Damn.

I am black copy

Wow, angry much? I bought it b/c it has a few albums I don't have of his, but I don't HAVE to have them. No need to get all butt hurt and call people dipshits, it's just the internet, and last time I checked it's also a free market, so if I want to sell it down the road, I can fucking do that and you can't do shit about it. Crybaby.

This made me seriously LOL!

Waiting for a price drop and I'll buy it.

so much this. there are some really, really good people on here. it warms my heart so much.

Can we talk about how the music video looks like an intro to a CSI: Miami ripoff circa 2003?

ive wanted krampus and black Christmas since I found out they were doing them. just like turbo kid, and guess what. I haven't order any of them, and it feels goooooood. join me guys!

lol $40 for a Christmas soundtrack shipping in January

Bunch of bundles that add $10+ to cost & shipping for a single LP. Guess I'll wait for it to hit a distro or something. Hopeless and MerchNow can GTFO with their stupid trinkets.

I'll buy it for $26 and sell it to John for less

my black copy was shipped

ordered. used code ZPH30T99UU for 30% off and did ship to store. came to $17.15

Then they wouldn't be scratches, they'd be holes.

They will not be in HT stores for another week or so. Hopefully it will be online tomorrow though. I just got a sample copy in, they look really cool. I'll post a picture of it if I get it back from our photoshoot team today. It's clear with red/blue/green splatter. I know, more splatter vinyl. The band picked the color on this one. It does look good though and does have the 2 bonus tracks.

I POd all 7 so I basically don't need a college fund

93% off. Thanks Hastings!

My glow shipped.

This set is a monster! The outer box portion is really heavy weight and the part that slides out is really well done too and holds the records perfectly. Most of the jacket writing is emobossed w/ silver / gold writing. Can't wait to start cranking these. $209 well spent.

amazon pre-order is up for $20 - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B018RLBASY

Bro, did you get a couple of the DIIV tour variants at a show to help us VC guys out who couldn't make the show?

"All albums will be released as part of the new Metal Blade Originals series in which classical Metal Blade albums will be reissued on vinyl with the original layout and extras if available. All albums in the Metal Blade Originals edition will feature a branded sticker to make clear it's the ultimate and best edition of the title. All four Slayer vinyl will be featuring 400g heavy cardboard spine sleeves, inside out prints and a large, 60x60cm artwork poster. On top of it, Hell Awaits, Show No Mercy and Live Undead will be released with a 250g insert." Looks like you can PO on Metal Blade's eBay store http://stores.ebay.de/METAL-BLADE-RECORDS-EUROPE-Shop/_i.html?_nkw=slayer&submit=Finden&_sid=68287552 Also

Great news

The teal one did have one that was a mistake where the teal was transparent instead of opaque. the transparent one is the one im missing, but unless they forget the splatter at all i see a very slim chance of something like that happening with this one

No, they shipped him dickheads.

soooo, like last year?

That Homesick picture disc is awesome, I've always really liked that artwork.

just got my boxset from amazon. in case anyone is nervous about the packaging, don't be -- it's packed like a tank amazon ships it in an oversized box full of paper stuff (i.e., the kind of packing that puts a sick feeling in your stomach), but the boxset itself is inside of a special black box with fitted foam padding. haven't opened the set yet, but I'll do that soon. btw, mine is #'d 05185. there's no "/XXX", but if there's 5 digits, there must be at least 10,000

It keeps saying out of stock for me

wow first record was awesome, they got hopelessed so much soooo soon...

can we just get a separate Audio Technica LP120 forum? People can just congregate elsewhere and discuss whether they're going to "pull the trigger" on some Audio Engine A2+ or go with a T amp off Amazon.

This but have you also considered buying a used one? There are a lot of DJ style tables like this so you could pick up a better quality table without the on board phono stage or USB that are the worst things about this table for the same or less money. If the look of the thing isn't that important then there would be quite a choice at that price point for used proper HiFi tables. Used can be very daunting for some people and you would need to buy it from somewhere you could take/send it back to if there were any problems unless it was very very cheap and worth the risk but that is the same with a new table. On the AT120 itself my dad has one and I rebuilt it for him (removed the rubbish electronics, re wired the arm, rebuilt the power supply and motor drive, set the tone arm bearings up correctly and polished the main bearing, new isolation feet, electrical and sound isolation inside) and it made it into a very nice sounding table, IT would have cost a fortune to do if I didn't already have a lot of the stuff and I could have bought him a very nice table for what the whole thing cost but it was fun to do

Some dick prob bought 100 copies with that 30% off coupon. Greedy dick.

Damn, silver glitter looks super good. Jealous of whoever got those.

Paul did an Q&A on twitter today and among the questions was: Q: are you guys planning to re-release vinyl for your older albums? if not... if you some lying around... A: We have a plan for that. So just stay tuned. Full Q&A here: https://www.reddit.com/r/mutemath/comments/3v70b2/pauls_twitter_qa_responses/

Thanks, dude. Just grabbed the Caillou pic disc for $39.99 on sale.

logan had told me a few days ago that she learned while waiting in line for one of marina's shows that the represses are identical to the 1st presses. i will text her and ask her to clarify.

Really digging this album. Just picked it up.
