Lots of stuff in the works. the_analog_ear@renobird in the next week?!? renobird: Keep your schedule open the 2nd weekend in Nov.

I'm mad you said you instead of ye

I've watched several of Vaati's lore videos and definitely trust his opinion. Already preordered the collector's edition from Gamestop, so I'm all in.

That's not to mention that all those bands (and more) are made up of members of the human race, which is the same species that makes up Semisonic. Remember to choose positivity and lift up your brothers and sisters. One love.

The hatred for third man is pretty childish, you are just not getting what you want. it looks like a lot of the copies of the variant will be at their rolling record store at Muddy Roots where Sleep is playing but fuck them for selling them directly to some sleep fans they should have sent one of two more copies to Orlando

I want an entire LP of dance remixes spanning the full discography.

It's not really screwing anyone over, although it must be tough on stores that would like to get a variant but don't want 10+ copies. I want to go back to the days of random variants. Most of this now is manufactured demand used to leverage both stores and fans.

By the way, this sounds INCREDIBLE. Way beyond my expectations.

I think we’re all missing the real question: did it or did it not taste like mint?

I found this listing for a Pork Soda pressing out on 11/2 while browsing Bullmoose. Primus - Pork Soda Interscope is listed as the label, not Plain like the last press. This is also considerably cheaper than the going rate for the Plain pressing. Update 10/4 Bullmoose has the Brown Album up for preorder too. Description says it's a remaster. https://www.bullmoose.com/p/28165825/primus-brown-album-2lp

You can probably feel it already. Amid the shimmering haze of dusk. In the marrow of your bones. The darkness is getting darker. Malevolent forces are on the prowl. The wasteland is beckoning. Uncle Acid is on his way home. A disorientating journey through Kevin Starrs (AKA Uncle Acid)’ wonkiest dreams, Wasteland glides majestically from punchy and direct psych-rock anthems like "I See Through You" and "Shockwave City" to the viscous, somnambulant ooze of the eight-minute "No Return" and the twinkly-eyed bad trip of the album’s mesmerising title track. Recorded at the legendary Sunset Sound studio in Los Angeles, Wasteland boasts the kind on irresistibly raw and exuberant sound that only the greatest bands can generate. Yet more confirmation that Uncle Acid exist in their own musical universe, Wasteland is also a powerful cautionary tale: one rooted in the alien landscapes of Starrs’ imagination, but with a very clear connection to the deranged chaos of today’s political world. As humanity cheerfully circles the plughole, Dystopian visions and present-day horrors have become more-or-less interchangeable, making Wasteland’s ghoulish surrealism a lot more pertinent and disturbing in the process. While most musicians seem content to chase their own (or other people’s tails), Uncle Acid & The Deadbeats remain proud and resolute individualists and Wasteland is simply their most powerful and memorable spurge of creativity to date. Masterfully echoing the magical atmospheres of heavy music’s turbulent past while sounding entirely unlike anything else available to human ears, this is what happens when the shadows come to life and suffocating darkness, Uncle Acid & The Deadbeats style, is the only show in town. 1.

Wind Me Up and make me Another Word With a Hole In It, Shrek.

Yeah, they had to order it knowing nothing but "TMR 4/20 RELEASE"

I don't know why everyone is so mad about this. For The Sciences there were 10,000 green and 1,000 green/black. There's 1,000 of the "aquamarine" variant, so let's say there's a similar "first press" quantity of the balck. That would fit the 10:1 ratio that they're requiring for the colored variant. I dislike a lot about Jack White/TMR and this isn't the coolest of things to do, but it doesn't seem as insane and insulting as some people are making it out to be.

It feels like we’re getting shat on...

Tets has been on fire lately with the posts.

I think Pitchfork is gonna give this album a 5.0 aka 1 slap outta 2.

I'm all for this because I'm sure it sounds better than the picture disc, but fuck beans do The Definitive Act. I dont care if the current line up had nothing to do with it.

He wrote My Morning Jacket's songs? That's news to me, where did you see that? And he wrote Weezer's Blue and Pinkerton? Also news to me. For my comment I wasn't shitting on Semisonic per se, but the fact that they would seek $50 for their record.

I agree it hasn't been my favorite year of stuff. But the Moby, Arctic Monkeys and TVOTR were all very well done. Beach House would have been better if it was a different album but the packaging and record look great for that one. I'm also really digging Mitski. But some of the other stuff has been hard to get into and only got 1 listen.

Oh yessssss! Finally another album! Just take my money and give me the die hard edition!

Some tour leftovers are up! Don't miss 'em Orange / Red Mix /1000

If you thought this album was too pop...this will really get your Ghost.

Got my copy in today from edsawesomesounds. Pretty sure I got #408. I only spun it for about a minute before I had to go back to work. Can't wait to crank up the volume later.

I'm surprised they haven't done a country/Americana side sub and try to reissue big country albums from the 90s and 00s that never got a pressing.

I have never seen a decent looking splatter record on black.

It is immensely unsettling you are correct.

My main local store is expecting ten colored copies, but they hadn't arrived yet when they opened. I'm second on the list to call when they arrive

amazing.

I actually don't mind the production on this one. This is going to be a grower, for sure, but in a good way. You Wind Me Up is probably the only track that gets the one-eyebrow-raise for me.

Same here. @Iggy_Pilot, has there been any word of a superior/inferior pressing?

8. That’s including the box-set variant and the color pop one.

Have you ever been to SDCC?

Definitely get early Brand New vibe during the end of Bastardizer and more recent Brand New vibe during Won’t Drown and Heartbeats.

People want these because they are rare and become valuable and then also complain about them being rare and valuable

I was being facetious. I totally agree with you. People scrambling to get these records is ridiculous.

Song is super gay. Sounds worse than the new Underoath, actually.

My big box of like everything came today and holy shit, it has pretty much everything! (21) 12"s, (10) 7"s, (10) Tapes, (1) test press (Taking Meds - - I requested it but I didn't think she'd actually send it..., and 1 banner. Packed like a beast, everything arrived w/ the record outside of the jacket. Not a single piece is damaged. Well worth it!!

Deadpool was entertaining enough for 90 minutes but it's definitely made for 12 year olds. If it was the exact same movie with nothing edited out but got a PG-13 it would've made a billion dollars.

I heard that if your shipping label printed already and they know you downloaded the leak one month early then they won’t take your order to the post office until late September. That’s what you all get for being pirates.

Your mistake was growing up and turning into a grump-ass. Let me guess, farts stopped being funny for you? Go read a book and follow some rules you adult square.

Someone text or PM your old pal Bladie a link to a zip file of this that can work on my phone because you love me.

Orders potentially shipping at The End of August. Coincidence? I think not.

I've gotten a few more since this pic was taken just before Xmas last year, but here's my Balance and Composure collection so far. The full photo album is on my Instagram (john_ninj). https://imgur.com/a/898h4XE

This has been one of my favorite albums this year. Also for those who missed out on the cranberry color in color, but don't want a black variant, the indie retail variant is just "milky clear" which DDW never advertised that I know of
