YesPlease

being the first guy to say: repress Sing The Sorrow

All test presses are sitting on shelves gathering dust

Finally back home, opened this gem up. #1 for all four records.

Saw that on Twitter earlier. That's just fuckin' punisher-level brutal. 
 

I work at Know Hope Records and we’ve spent every day since Thursday packing up shipments and taking them to the post office in batches. We have around 500 orders and it’s just two of us doing the packing, so hopefully they’ll all be in the mail by Tuesday at the latest! If you ordered just the record WITHOUT the book, or the book with the splatter variant it’s already in transit! If you ordered with the book + the color in color or the tri-color variant those are what we still have left to pack and they’ll be out in the next couple days. Also everyone’s order includes a free record or two from the label’s back catalog as a thank you for your patience in putting up with the obnoxiously long delay in getting these from the pressing plant. 

Thanks for the love everyone!
 
Rico and I (Field Day) are super excited about this one. I will say that my anxiety is at an all-time high given this is one of my favorite records and I just want to do right by it but luckily Ryan has been super cool, hands-on, and supportive of the release and we can’t wait to share it!

I don’t know, how much of @thedillon ‘s time have you wasted in this thread alone so far?

Tbh, your entitlement is kinda bogus. These things take time and effort, and you’re just assuming that they can handle requests of that magnitude even during a pandemic when most businesses are functioning at lower capacity. If this company were to take specific requests from every individual that orders from them, the amount of problems that could arise are astronomical. Try to consider things like this when kicking and screaming certain services be rendered in order to prevent something that MIGHT happen.

Not christmas-related, but I’m still waiting on variant 1 from original day 1 pre-orders lol 

I spoke with a USPS employee today. As you and everyone knows they got slammed from holiday stuff. But after the holidays apparently Covid went around like crazy at the sorting / distribution facilities. A good handful are even shut down. So depending on where you live and where your record is coming from it could end up at one that is closed and it’ll sit there til they have employees back from their quarantine time. LA has been hit hard. Any record I get from CA most likely sits for weeks. But yah, I figured they were backed up but what makes it even slower is that media mail is last in the list. They focus on priority and flat rate first and media mail is last. So another big reason as why it’ll just sit there for weeks. Sucks but it is what it is. Just thought I’d pass that info along for everybody. 

Well, I officially got the Amazon cancellation email. It was a good ride. 

So 3 weeks later and I actually started doing something about this.  It's still in the tinkering stage but I'm open to suggestions, especially this early on.  The thumbnails are manually added and will make the doc take ages to add rows, if you have 800+ of them.  I'm thinking of a way to compress them into a static gif, or just modifying the design to not use them at all.  It'll be a dream machine for anyone with a modest collection.  Open to suggestions.  If anyone has a genius way of fetching Discogs sale values, please let me know.  Right now it's entirely manual and such a pain.  More to follow.
 

Nothing really this is just another VC nostalgia thread.
 
But they had a variant gallery for releases so you don't have to click each listing. That's my best guess, more pictures 

Do beware of preordering limited items from Amazon. Just ask anyone waiting for MOV clear copies of Jack’s Mannequin’s “Everything in Transit.”

Glad to help!
 
There was a third as well but... guilty.

I grabbed the other one, good start to the day!

Got one this morning. Thank you!!

Is there a way for me to watch a clip of what was recorded? Really would like to know what it sounds like before I drop $80

Hey ya'll. My label Near Mint's next installment in our early 2000's re-issues will be Sherwood's debut 2004 EP. Fully remastered for vinyl from the original mixes (sounds incredible) and fancy packaging / variants. Pressing info on the product page.

Here’s an image Dog Knights posted (which for some reason won’t embed). Media Mail is a subsidized format, so they are delaying it until they can sort out all the Amazon and Christmas chaos.

Opened the orange one. I love love love the sunburst effect.
