Got my Everything box. Now need to figure out how to tastefully display my TWIABP salad fork.

Ever think to yourself about an option? A different way to be? And with those words the world was introduced to Atom & His Package. In an era of cookie cutter hardcore and pop punk acts, this Philadelphian one man punk rock machine delivered one of the most unique albums the punk scene had seen in years. The spiritual successor of bands like The Dead Milkmen, and They Might Be Giants, Atom and His Package’s first track “Avenger” was the bizarre story of taking revenge on his enemies, running away to an island with the love of his life, and solving the Israeli/Palestinian conflict in the Middle East…. And it just got better from there. He quickly became the single most controversial act in all of punk, people going as far as taking out ads bashing him in fanzines or banning his labels’ ads from them because he wasn’t punk/hardcore enough for them. Those people were idiots. Atom injected something that was sorely lacking in our scene…. FUN. He played the weirdest bills… I saw him with hardcore bands, old school punk bands, ska bands, emo/screamo bands, even a trip-hop band etc. I traveled 1,000 miles to see his “reunion” show at FEST 7, and it was one of the greatest shows I’ve ever seen. He reminded us that we were pretty much all nerds and got into this music because we were “uncool”. His music was great. It was sometimes silly, it was sometimes obnoxious, it was sometimes so beautifully simple and honest that it was perfect. We’re extremely happy to have the opportunity to reissue his first two records partnered with our friends at Toxic Toast Records – Atom and His Package (first time ever on vinyl!) and Society of People Named Elihu (first time on vinyl in the US!) for all of the people who love Atom as much as we do. So here’s to love songs to new age artists, leaving your friends and family to hang out with black metal bands, and praising Rob Halford for destroying metal stereotypes. Additionally, for every copy Asbestos Records sells, we will be making a donation to www.translifeline.com . It’s our 2nd fundraiser for them, and they’re really an incredible charity doing great work.

$65 and you can't even use a jacket with 4 pockets for a 4LP. Nice.

yes, they do. i'm happy when bands are able to work things out like that. Think of how long it's taken Matt Talbott to get that Heavenward is Downward reissue! haha SRC just saw you're in Russia and decided to sting you because us North Americans have to put up with...you know who in office.

No worries bruh! Send it to me and I'll be real gentle.

Benji is a wonderful record but I don't really care for any of the stuff that came after. Unfortunately, it has gotten to the point where I just glaze over the news of a new Mark Kozelek album coming out, which is a shame because the dude has made a few of the best albums I've ever heard.

Anyone into daptone records ? I’m pretty excited about this Sha La Das lp they just put up. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=EDSSesrKz0k

Yeah but I honestly wouldn’t bother with Pokken or DK. F you must play them, I understand cuz I had to as well but I regret spending the money on both of them. Played DK for like three hours and traded it in. The console is great, 99% of the exclusive are pretty great. IMO, the best game on the Switch is Mario+Rabbids Kingdom Battle. It’s fuckin’ incredible.

Omg. Can we get a head count on everyone else who only subscribes for this reason, at this point? I actually already have AFP thanks to my wife but not April yet, the greatest of all.

I stopped with the Christmas record, though I hated Benji and it’s live albums. I don’t think I enjoyed Among the Leaves that much.

Wow that pretty much sums up my exact cut off point. I didn't really dig Among the leaves but its the last one I bought outright. Benji was critically lauded n I gave it a few cursory listens but it never clicked. Partly because it is such a personal release. I get that its dealing with his actual family so I see the merit of naming individuals he knows in each song but somehow it isn't as relatable as other songwriters attempts to tackle grief and the fear of mortality and this at least for me is in part because of the inclusion of such specific minutiae, down the line that seems to have been the facet of the album he carried forward until we land where we are now: Records about buying churros from a gas station on his way to Nantucket. Gimme April and Admiral Fell Promises re-issues and then I can stop opening this thread.

Yup, that game Octopath Traveller is a great game only on Switch. DK is super fun and the megaman x collection is great to have on the go.

Apparently these have shipped, because I got mine today.

I’ve never been so frustrated with someone not wanting to take my money.

Could have sworn only the deluxe edition was touted at limited to 1k. Only thing unique was the packaging and autographed insert. The red always seemed to be the standard pressing. BM now has the new one on green vinyl up for PO. Way cheaper than MusicGlue and Mute’s $9 shipping: https://www.bullmoose.com/p/27901352/liars-titles-with-the-word-fountain-green-vinyl-tfcf-deluxe-edition

According to DatH FB on the 28th, there are about 100 left and the records are in transit to HelloMerch; will be shipping soon.

Yep that is a beast of a record to try to get your hands on. I am at peace that it willl never happen unless I win the lottery of something . Nofx collectors can be crazy as hell when it comes to buying certain peices in the collection .

Ato is not a distributor. They are a label who has usa rights to king gizzard. They don't sell or release any other flightless artist

I’m thinking that the 7500 is just a big bunch of good ol’ black wax, but who knows. Would be fab if they arrange some EU distribution to reduce the shipping costs.

copped one in spite of the fact that I know I'll get burned for importing it. Cannot stop listening to Small steps. Had never heard these guys before this week but they are just amazing. The curse of finding new music through here is strong, my bank account weeps.
