Yeah, these turned out pretty neat.

Knowing that they come unglued that easily, I’m afraid that I’m now gonna’ have to dust off my IG account and see if I can’t push their buttons a bit. I have like 6 posts on my profile and they’re all private so whoever is running that account can seethe. 😎

Saw your post on the vinyl subreddit too. Was very surprised by the essentially unanimous extremely negative opinion there. This is sick as fuck. Nice collection dude

Since a floor pic won't work with 47 albums. Here is a grid of every Rage Against The Machine self-titled album I own. It was released 30 years ago today, November 3rd, 1992.

I have one post, 12 followers and a private account. Might have to do the same.

No one likes the alternate artwork. The fact they haven't sold out of the limited ones for both speaks volumes. The timed preorders aren't necessary at this point.

The speaker placement on that subreddit makes my eyes roll so hard. There’s a reason I haven’t looked at it in years and it’s even worse now; the shit that gets upvoted, my god. Very cool RATM, my dude.

Just completed my Coheed collection recently - https://www.instagram.com/p/Ckgj-xQJ1qN/

Not sure what or where or how to note this, but for the first time that I can recall, I'm not allowed to use my ad blocker on the site here. Is that normal or a new thing? It's definitely never asked me to turn it off for years, and it won't let me access the site now unless i do that. Anybody?

Boiling frog 101. Baffling to me how many people on that sub have accepted $40 as the norm for a double LP. Celebrating a $32 PPD single LP ain’t it… but the goalposts they set get way, way distorted by the $80 Alchemist POs they hype up, $50+ bootlegs, steep imports for region-exclusive variants, etc. Super warped sense of what vinyl should actually cost, over there.

I'm stoked about these releases. Really the only MxPx stuff I need. That said, folks on reddit were acting like these were phenomenally priced, and while they're decent for recent pricing. They're still over $25 for single LPs which...isn't great. I donno. Just wanted to vent about that a little. Amped to get these as I've been diving back into skatepunk type stuff lately.

So you’re saying I should spam all photos on all 3 of those Instagram accounts? Is that what I’m reading between the lines here?

It was on Sargent House’s Twitter, as well as Brooklyn Vegan (as far as I’ve seen).

probably that's the case, and it's totally acceptable but would it be too hard to communicate?

So that's why I can't see comments lol

Never heard of this until i stumbled across it today. And it's fantastic. Stupid price for the vinyl but the music is actually really enjoyable. The song titles kill me. https://inversephase.bandcamp.com/album/pretty-eight-machine-se

Whoever runs their account just straight up disabled comments for that 1 post. I can still see comments and even add my own to every other post, though. I guess when you’re receiving too much flack, just silence the masses and ignore any feedback. I wasn’t even being rude or negative, I just asked if there was a reason they opted for embarrassing new album art. I was trying to drive a constructive conversation.

well that instinct was correct, you can now order new color variants of their two LPs, and associated demos are also newly available as limited cassettes https://thevanpelt.bandcamp.com/merch

The link works for me. Looks like they also have black which is cheaper.

SIGE has reissued two OLD MAN GLOOM records: Seminar II: The Holy Rights of Primitivism Regressionism: "Seminar II: The Holy Rights of Primitivism Regressionism" (2xLP) | OLD MAN GLOOM | SIGE Records (bandcamp.com) Seminar III: Zozobra: "Seminar III: Zozobra" (LP) | OLD MAN GLOOM | SIGE Records (bandcamp.com)

Even better. I went straight for the throat and found the profile in the screenshot above. I presume they’ll take it personally and lose sleep over it.

@jhuludwould you mind moving this to the right sub? Did something change on here recently to make this more commonly? I feel like it hasn't happened in a while and now two in a week.

Me too! Already have the two Acoustics and Farewell. Also nabbed the two TAAS ones.

so I dared to voice my opinion on these stupid covers and that they should have stick with originals and the admin went on full rampage on my profile basically commenting on everything be it records or personal stuff. This band sucks big time.

I dont trust that guy having like 20 shirts out before having a record

Blackbraid preorders are finally live: https://blackbraid.us/product/blackbraid-i-gatefold-vinyl-live/

Glad to hear these are arriving quickly and in great shape so far. I gave everything the tried and true, patented shake test™ before shipping them out, and made sure everyone had some Fragile stickers. By coincidence or not, I’ve found that any mention of Fragile on my vinyl orders has resulted in a noticeably higher likelihood than the package isn’t thrashed or bent.

All their albums are solid, pretty stoked on all the guest features on this one!
