Please stop this deluxe nonsense, we are in a recession, inflation is fucked up, and what do you do?? "let's add 4 alt versions of already known songs and an etched d-sideto make a 2xlp and a slipcase for 40+ bucks" Please labels stop doing this shit.

100%. dont support this shit.

the colour version is D2C exclusive, won't be on Amazon ect

Thanks for the info! I saw a picture of How It Feels. It’s a cool lava looking variant of /1500. Definitely getting a shirt, LP, and print. Maybe a hoodie too.

Definitely seconding this. I've permanently wrecked the flow in my head for other records I've looked forward to. This is one I expect to wear out like their last two full lengths and want to hear the whole thing together.

Yeah I definitely feel that if I was there, I'd grab what I could grab for the folks that actually are fans. Alan definitely is a rare breed. I'm grateful he did that. I'll have to pay it forward someway, somehow out in the real world. As for the remaining exclusives I really hope theres leftovers on Wednesday!

There was absolutely not a limit, when I picked up a copy for a friend they asked "Only one?"

Pretty sure I just got a shipment notification for this. Whoa.

Nobody ever ended up doing a proper rip of this with or without the hidden track, so I did. Here it is on YouTube: ...and here's more info (lineage etc) along with a lossless download of the full EP rip.

Probably about $80+ cheaper. All these reissues have me in a chatty QOTSA mood though. Do you – or anyone else – have some general thoughts on specific albums or anything else you feel like discussing? ⚠️ TLDR warning. Thoughts, personal history, and babbling ahead. Ignore if you’re only interested in links or chat about these vinyl reissues. For me it all started with SFTD. And by “started”, I mean I checked them out and really did not enjoy them. 😅 It’s such a weird introduction, but SSX3 on the PS2 had a pretty banger soundtrack that made the extreme nature of virtual snowboarding way more enjoyable for me. (I owe that game gratitude for getting me into Thrice and, by proxy, modern music as a whole. But I digress.) On that game is a remix by UNKLE, of Queens’ No One Knows. I thought the track was great, and got so used to the remix that when I finally checked out the studio version, it sounded so… rancid. It was way more funky, with noticeably more swagger and groove. My narrow tastes couldn’t handle it and I dismissed them for years while exploring newer artists. I don’t know what changed but at some point down the road, after my tastes and tolerances for different sounds opened up a lot more, I tried out the entirety of SFTD and really enjoyed it. Especially its scale and ambition, and all the detours it took. I also really clicked with Rated R around that time. To this day I can’t really get into LTP or Era Vulgaris. I think that there are some excellent cuts on each but as a whole, front to back, those records never quite clicked with me. I keep revisiting them every few years to see if that will change. …LC, I thought was brilliant. That album garnered so many accolades and shouts of praise, and I think it’s all pretty justified. Villains is a step down for me. I feel like everyone was shitting on that record; I don’t think it’s as consistent as …LC, and I remember thinking its pacing is very odd, with some nice moments earlier on and a string of bangers near the end. Don’t quote me on any of that though, it’s been a while and I never played it obsessively. I’m curious to hear what others think about it now that some time has passed. And then, finally, only after Villains was released did I figure I’d check out the S/T. Really weird approach to their discography, I know. The S/T feels pretty lean and mean. I dig the instrumental tracks and everything that isn’t making this single LP reissue, but at the same time I’m not gutted that those are missing. For the price and presentation, I really can’t complain. It’s a shame I didn’t start listening to it back when SFTD got the thumbs up from me. I know some people are avid fans of the band. I don’t think I’ve ever been that hardcore, but I do believe that they’ve got a very solid discography under their belts, and Villains was good enough that I’ll gladly keep checking out their trajectory they’re on with their songwriting.

Just received this not less than an hour ago! Mos def an upgrade to my mov! The wider grooves gives the music space to breathe. 🤤 BTW, this needs to be cleaned Big time! Black paper dust throughout...fyi

City of Echoes Deluxe is now up, these will probably go quick...Go! https://thrilljockey.com/products/city-of-echoes /250 Lavender

My test press copy came in yesterday. I’ve only had a chance to listen to the first side because I have family in town visiting this week, but I liked it a lot.

You may potentially hear a difference going from the Phono Box to the Tube Box, as tubes give a different sound. The bigger question is, will you like it? I demoed a tube preamp and a solid state, and I personally was not a fan of the sound tubes gave. The Debut Pro looks really nice, so enjoy it when you get it!

4 "new" tracks (alt takes) + an etching...for $50... Think I'll stick with my OG press for now. But excited for anyone who never had this for sure

I know of 1 thing I’m missing aside from test presses.. but I think my collection of The Bronx / Mariachi El Brox is pretty comprehensive.

pretty sure blindside sold every copy they made and there won't be leftovers.
