  1. Just for the sake of conversation, isn't releasing a song, or songs, before the album release date kind of a new(er) internet-age thing? I know I'm a dinosaur nearing age 40, but "Back when I was a kid..." and CDs were the standard, you had to buy releases blindly. If you were copping on the release date, anyways... Or would they release songs on the radio, just not typically in physical format? Not that shit like Norma Jean was played on any radio, but just in general, I mean. I do remember CD/cassette singles, but I feel like they weren't usually released before the LP, unless they were, and it just wasn't popular amongst me and my group of friends to buy ahead of time... I see someone else pointed out above, and I was going to reiterate what Corey, or the band collectively, addressed the lineup changes in the liner notes of was it Wrongdoers...? Essentially saying that Norma Jean is/has been an evolving family/collective of musicians. I personally don't see the issue, unless the sound is changing dramatically and has no resemblance of what it was previously. Norma Jean has been kicking ass, I don't see why this release would be any different. They've got a solid track record. I'm being old by thinking "You damn kids sure do like to find stuff to complain about!" then I remember that's what the forum and internet are for, to critique and dissect whatever the heck you're looking at. I also really liked the art when I saw it lol I just thought it looked like a bad ass cover. I see most board members also disagree on that.

  2. I imagine it went down something like this. ETR: Hey Andy can we press Get Wet and overcharge for gimmicky vinyl variants sourced from CD? AWK: I’d prefer you didn’t. ETR: Well, too bad. We do what we like and we like what we do. AWK: Fair enough.

  3. Smartpunk. I bought AJJ's last album from them as well. Though I'm kinda regretting I didn't go with the Urban variant, I got a ton of splatter in my vinyl collection.

  6. Didn't realize the OG was so valuable. I must have bought it on a whim when it came out, listened to the first couple tracks one time, and then put it on the shelf for years. This thread inspired me to listen to the first few songs for the first time in years lol.

  8. I ordered the Spotify one right away before the others were announced. It was a toss up for me between the Urban Outfitters and Smartpunk ones. Smartpunk posted a picture of it on Facebook. It looks really nice. Hopefully the Urban Outfitters one doesn't suck.

  9. Which variant did you order? I went with the Spotify green and the Urban Outfitters ones.

  10. The MGS record at 79.99 or best offer isn't terrible if you really really want the exclusive variant. The record is $35 plus tax, and if you have a VB a tip is usually appreciated, which puts you closer to $50-$60 depending on how much you tip. You also have the couple extra bucks for shipping. Factor in how much tickets to SDCC cost and how much of a pain in the ass the Mondo line is...IMO, not a bad deal if you really really want this version. I'd say just wait it out for the standard version from Mondo later this summer.

  12. I mean in general, not just this record. Just speaking to to how certain releases break the bank for collectors.

  13. What does this even mean? There is no "rarest variant" when multiple versions are limited to 300 copies.

  15. Can we talk about how good “Anna” is though? Wow classic Menzingers there. The hype that this is “their best yet” might be true.

  17. Just got an email from KRM about switching the shipping over to media on my Peacock. Refund in 1-3 days. Everything seems to have worked out despite the rough start.

    Zao Re-issues!

    Not hard at all BUT when you do DJ all vinyl it gets a bit annoying having to adjust your master volume for one song when certain things are already set.

  22. They posted an Instagram story saying they had finally received the finished vinyl sometime towards the end of last week. Things should be heading out soon.

  23. Looks like the $500 deluxe has run out of steam with 981 copies left. Theyre really shooting themselves in the foot on this one. The deluxe is also only available to U.S. customers.
