It's crazy to me how on these recent reissues they've completely erased Steve from the artwork/liner notes/song credits. Like, if you didn't know the band's history and just bought one of these records, you'd assume they were a four-piece when in actuality the guy who wrote 99% of the songs on these reissues has been Thanos-snapped out of existence.

Looks like another variant exists...no idea where though

This will be launching this week! Huge oversized 18x25 insert. Three colors of vinyl all matching AP's theme!

Gotta remember pressing less copies is more expensive though. Paying the little guy $30 for an LP /100 or /200 is terrible for everyone but fair lol

this album is really good btw, first one that's really drawn me in since Nocturne

It's true, inflation is the very topic. Yes, I know when you line it up prices are pretty similar. I'm not saying it's bad necessarily - just wondering if it's sustainable (since the situation has changed in other regards since 1970 - music is free or cheap, food is cheaper, but housing is a lot more, low wages much lower, wealth gap much greater) - wondering if sellers have cold feet, as buyers seem to. If buyers were snapping up $30-40 records like they were snapping up $23 records, I wouldn't be posting this. They aren't.

The cost of vinyl is actually the same as it ever was. It's basic math. The more we print, the less it's worth...

I genuinely appreciate your profile pic/username update significantly more than this record.

I could've sworn there was a thread on here a handful of years ago about "HD Vinyl" or some crap that was supposed to be a cheaper and faster new method to press records, but I can't find it now. But like OP said, the pressing prices haven't skyrocketed. I always thought the fact that there are only a few plants in existence was causing all the major delays and mark-ups. It sucks some indie bands are charging $40 for a self released record via bandcamp because that's the going rate at Target. Like yeah, secure the bag, but don't overshoot the moon.

Totally Killer was a ton of fun — thanks for the recommendation!

lol $50 shipped non-gatefold 2LP. What a time to be alive

This is like an adult contemporary version of TBS which as an adult resonates more with me.

I really love this album. Chris is just great!

Will they release any of it?

That’s very strange. He didn’t even play on that record.
