I was really hyped for this but that was probably my least favorite song from this band. I'll hold judgement until I hear the whole thing.

Y'all also need to take into account the type of bitch attracted to those releases and how they will complain over every little thing.

This is so funny to read in 2024.

I remember buying double LPs for less than $20 shipped back then... sigh

That is true about XO not having any decent pressings.  Does Interscope remaster all of these releases?   Also, do you have a link to a store that has the back in black Figure 8?  I have the plain pressing on red / blue but it doesn't sound great. 

It's starting to raise in price, been 7 years now. https://www.discogs.com/release/10422019-Elliott-Smith-Figure-8

If people cared about listening to their vinyl it would have been sold out and selling for triple digits a long time ago.

No.

This will probably be the same as the 2021 repress. Which could be worse, I guess.

Def not worth a buy for anyone with a Bongload pressing then. I was hyped for a sec.

Was really hoping for Figure 8.  Odd choice for interscope given how many different pressings there are of XO. 

Isn't there only like one pressing of XO that doesn't sound horrible or has there been a recent one I'm not aware of? The back in black Figure 8 Euro press hasn't been hard to come by as far as I'm aware and sounds great. XO had no such readily available good pressing last I checked.

Bullmoose has both?  Damn I tried looking and they only “have” the half and half.  But when you click on it, it says the item is no longer available.  Just trying to get an order in somewhere that doesn’t charge until it ships.  L

No the 1234go link

Doubt it. Bullmoose used the same image. I think it's them not realizing there's the pink/blue split and the pink/blue merge.

Did you even look? They have both

Looks like they just got em in

"Hi Shelby,

Thank you for pre-ordering Have a Nice Life's Voids DLP!

I'm writing to let you know that we experienced a small delay with the vinyl edition of this release and as a result pre-orders are shipping a little behind schedule. We apologize for the wait. 

The vinyl is in stock now and we are currently working through the orders as quickly as we can. 

We appreciate your patience and support. Please feel free to reply to this message if you have any questions or concerns.

Best regards,
Bryan Manning"

Fuck small labels for not having release day delivery. Why did I even order if I can walk into a store tomorrow and buy a copy?

i actually don't even care for AFI much, i just keep seeing a pattern of people bumping old ass barely related threads to announce new stuff, just makes no sense to me

He said why he did it very clearly. Forums in this format should just be band catch-all threads anyways, just ignore the album title when you see a bumped thread if you like a band. Simple.

i wish people would stop doing this, make a new post, this has nothing to do with sing the sorrow

I can't imagine liking AFI and also being this much of a dweeb. Good luck.

Yeah I don't believe for one second that the guy behind Rapeman was doing anything but being an edgelord there.

Sorry to nitpick but I have cancelled USPS labels before and gotten refunded. It's possible. Takes some time but it's easy. Also if they didn't ship it within 4 days and that's against their seller terms, they're also in the wrong. So 4 days as an example can actually be a problem and going against their own word without communication. I don't know their full back and forth. Just playing devil's advocate here. There are a lot of godawful buyers and sellers out there (just look at the ETID thread lol)

That's what I was doing though 😂

Guaranfuckingteed there was another step in there before they "cursed you out" 🙄

I wasn't surprised they didn't comply. I was surprised they lied about shipping it when they hadn't. And still haven't.

Like I said, please don't expect it. That isn't lying either stores do it when they print a label. So that's another non-refundable thing in the way. Asking for a refund because something didn't ship within like 4 days of RSD is also crazy, the more you talk the more it seems like both you and the store need to go hang out on Shitty Island together.

Do you mean a fee for the label or a fee from Discogs? Because of how Discogs handles shipping policies now probably 1-5 orders I end up cancelling as the seller because the buyer doesn't want to pay the shipping price.  I've never been charged a fee, regardless of if they've already paid and I refund them or not.

If they pay you in any way and you have to refund it you are not getting the fee back. They get everything back and you get charged.

I know they suck but please don't buy things on discogs and be surprised when people don't comply with refunding you before it ships. There's a non-refundable fee that the seller has to eat.

Running a record store i'm so used to all these new release double lps being like $49.99 - $55.99. 

Ok so you were being sarcastic

$44.99 for a double LP isn't that bad is it?

Can't tell if sarcasm

I wouldn't say I'm upset, but I don't have the bandwidth for people who don't create their own shit. I'd rather put my effort and money into finding an artist who wasn't looking for shortcuts.

It took me a long time to realize not everyone makes an emotional connection when listening to music. Stuff like this just sounds like aural plastic... humans made it but nothing is there.

Get upset or not that shit is incredibly corny and I'll be personally judging people who allow rap/hip-hop/pop artist/producer roles to invade rock genres. Step one to forgetting how to play instruments as a society and that's not hyperbole.

People will argue with you but won't be able to name a different band responsible for the nügaze movement.

Distressor > Around > Sway > FLY > Pipe Dreams

But Pipe Dreams Redux is probably above Feels Like You to me. All 3 splits and the Muta/Blue Sugar single would make an incredible comp.

I thought maybe that was the case but looking at Spotify, RFC still has the copyright. It might not be updated so I can't say for certain.

Stuff you get paid for doesn't just lie dormant and forgotten about

Also looks like both /250 variants are gone.
