weekend bump

I love how on the promo photo one of the large texts that the eye gets drawn to is "11x11 LYRIC INSERT"

 

Is that something that labels are advertising with their releases now?

 

One of the band members made the promo image, I told em the general details and sent photos and thats how he laid it out. Not sure why the insert was highlighted but prob cause he wrote a good portion of the lyrics

Ordered, to support Ross more than the actual release.

 

Thank you Andrew, your the best!

They listed the test presses and a short video on their site.....just getting closer now....after the tests get approved then we wait....at least we are closer to getting em.....

 

I am friends with the label owner who is putting this one out and The test presses were actually declines for these. As you can see in the video, they were a bit warped so these will likely be delayed a few months due to that

NOW ON SALE AT    http://enjoytheride.storenvy.com/

I am usually not a huge big fan of Metalcore but this album really caught my ear earlier this year & the band/label was beyond stoked to work with us on a vinyl release for it. I really think this band is going to blow up soon given how popular the genre is getting & this album is one of the best i have heard.

 

I am very happy with how these came out & absolutely love the photography used for the artwork which was taken by a super talented artist named Christopher McKenney who's facebook page can be found below

Here is a link to the first single on youtube which should be a playlist and lead to play the rest of the album, if not then just type in "One Year Later- Life Between The Lies" & a playlist with the whole album should come up

 

 

 

 

 

 

All important info should be listed above but if anyone else happens to have any other questions then let me know as I will be checking this thread over the course of the day. 

 

We will also be selling 10 bundle packs with ALL 3 variants (only way to get Clear variant other than on Tour) & the screen printed test pressing with Alt Artwork & HAND NUMBERED /24 total copies

I missed out? Damnit

Hot topic still has some copies left on their site & in stores i believe

Ross, inquiring about anything and everything. Always told no.

 

that just comes with the nature of what I am doing with ETR unfortunately. 95% or more of the releases i try to get, actually end up seeing the light of day but that being said, we have some great stuff coming up in the neat future!

Yes. I wish more people were aware of how many amazing labels were ruined / robbed in that situation.

 

I never heard anything about that..which labels & what happened?

This has been at the top of my list for a while, this is an amazing album. Where do I insert my money?

gotta wait a few months but follow ETR on social media for updates on the release

Per Enjoy The Ride's Instragram, this is being pressed.  Won't be out for a couple months, but I figured people around here might be interested.

 

I would say more around Nov/Dec realistically, the plants usually get jammed before the holiday season. I may end up pressing 3 or 4 albums at the same time, at the same plant and have them all go on sale together including this one but I have not fully decided yet. We have 8 more releases scheduled for this year, 4 major label and 4 indie releases and it would be cheaper that way but I also do not want to fuck over my customers and have them miss out on certain releases or variants because they are broke in Nov/Dec from buying gifts. At the same time , people who would be ordering more than one of those releases, would probably prefer to pay shipping once and save a few bucks that way.   

 

Thoughts?

for those interested.....Follow me on Instagram @Enjoytheriderecords 

 

When i do teaser photos for new releases, far in advance like this one. it is usually on instagram and this is the first one that people immediately caught on to. I teased a few other things like Rob Zombie months ago and didn't seem like many people realized what it was. 

i am shocked & delighted by how much interest this getting!  I have been trying to get this done for 2 years & is finally in the final stages of artwork layout.  I will post updates as things progress but the variants on this one are going to be awesome, one thing that we have never done before so I am really excited to see how they come out. 

B-Sides compilation out on October 7th via Dangerbird. Pre-order info soon.

 

 

1 – Electric Rainbow

2 – Surf-N-Turf

3 – Broken China

4 – Walk On Air

5 – Patiently Waiting

6 – Cat Calls & Ill Means

7 – Invented Memory

8 – South Side Life

9 – Your Private Sky

10 – The Lucky Ones

YES!

i put the record in a polybag sleeve and put the sticker on the bottom right corner of the bag on the back.

 

So overall, how did people feel about including the numbered sticker opposed to being hand numbered and/or already stuck on the jacket?  I wanted to try something different and see how people felt about it

Test pressed arrived today, listening as we speak

@Enjoytheriderecords

So I won't be able to pick the clear, it will be a lucky random? I have no luck haha. I was holding out for the ETR clear.

 

We are still working out all the details but i am pretty sure they are going to let us sell some of the clear on our webstore as well. We are waiting on final word from the board of directors & will report back once i know for sure

Ugh. $51 at Amazon? SSD is free shiping over $35, so definitely the best deal so far.

 

ETR's domestic pressing of "Korn" self titled will be out on Black Friday later this year will be $35 srp for those who missed it earlier in the thread.

 

Our pressing will be 1500 copies on black and 500 copies on coke bottle clear(Randomly included within the pressing of 2000 copies). 

Test presses for both FII & awake were mailed to us today & will be reviewed next week once they arrive....for those interested. After almost two years, these are finally close to completion 

Same boat.

 

300/350 orders have been packed up & 150 of those will be mailed out within the hour. The final 50 orders should be packed sometime this weekend and taken to the post office on monday, thanks to everyone who ordered & glad everyone is happy with the re-issue.  

 

I also thought it felt a little light but did not have a scale to weigh them, pretty lame that its 163 when I paid them to upgrade to 180gram. I will definitely mention that to the plant next time I place an order for 180 gram & complain, sorry about that but 100% out of my control 

Awesome. Didn't know it was a limited bonus. Thank you

 

I didnt know we were getting any extra prints until they arrived and decided to just throw a couple in random orders and let it be a surprise. glad someone on the board got one

Got mine. #28. The print it came with is real nice on high quality card stock.

I only gave the print (which was an extra of the test press cover that my art guy made but no back/tracklist or number) to 2 random people so far & will be doing 2 more tomorrow. 

Around 25 left 

 

Also still taking offers on the ONE test press we have available. Pm me if interested 

Already shipped? Damn, that was fast!

 

They are starting to be packed today & will begin shipping out tomorrow. As always, if you ordered first then it will ship first and the people who ordered last night or today will likely end up being packed/mailed later next week
