i was feeling that one for a bit, but after geeking out to some live sets from last year and cruising the record, I think my favorites are Radio Hive, Dark All Night for Us, and Last White Lighter. At this point, I am still mainly focused on the instrumentals, while I have sat down with the lyrics... the appeal of weatherbox has always been the insane arrangements and guitar and drum parts. i remember first hearing Broken Glowsticks in 2012 (i'm a box noob) and being so blown away by how that song is put together. i feel like this album is more than just an extension of that ep, its like an evolution (think a pokemon that evolves with a stone) and those three songs just put my brain in a space nothing else can. its like neuro-goosebumps or something.

the amount of misinformation amongst the reviews ive read is ridiculous, the half cloth one criticizing ben on songs that are undoubtedly adam. haha that'd be crazy if ben could do three different singing voices, though

WTB: La Dispute ('Vancouver', 'Here, Hear')
shawnayala90 replied to Crixmadine13's topic in Sale/Trade/Wants
Dude how did it go?! To me this seems like a very thoughtful, wonderful gift. La Dispute is one of those bands that can very much bring two people close. The band espouses so much understanding and beautiful moments in the lyrics and music, its only natural that translates to the listeners and their lives. Anyway, once again this is an awesome gift and something I feel is a really special thing about this hobby. I hope the sellers all know their stuff went to a very caring cause.- 28 replies

PO: Pswingset - All Our False Starts
shawnayala90 replied to serum7's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
i know i am insanely late to this, but this record is SO GOOD. i randomly watched the light n noise/ topshelf sxsw 2013 recap and was absolutely capivated by the pswingset song, their vibe reminded me of bands from here in Indiana. After spinning my copy of the IIOI/Pswingset, i am on my third listen of this record! seriously thinking about picking one up -

shawnayala90 replied to cwhitmuzik's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
this, the dynamics of the drums are so much more clear, also a more discernible bass tone, not to mention all the little things the producer talked about really shining through. i will say it doesn't "bump" as much but thats likely because this better master eliminates the compression wall aspect. all in all i'd say its a slightly softer, yet way more intricate mix. it really clears things up, you'll find many notes that hit that sweet spot hit it smoother and better now, and the atmospheric reverb /bassy room feel has been scaled down to put all the many melodies and "secrets"of this album right in your ears. -
I got the leak out of pure curiosity (I guess I justify it to myself because of preordering) and I think I prefer it to be a partial leak, its just a taste and only gets me more excited for this to come in. I really am enjoying the new Distress Signal, the added instrumentation and harmonies are a welcome addition as I always felt the mixed signals version was missing lead parts. Also, the RFC booth at Bledfest was the nicest I've seen I'm my three attendances. The poster tube deal was killer, i got about 15 and Beandip gave me one of the charmer ones that come in the bundle. It truly felt like being at the run for cover webstore IRL, there was an insane selection of stuff to get. Also loved the newsletter style bledfest sheet.

Hey guys I'm a bit new here, I'm Shawn and I live in Indiana. Right now I'm on the way to Bledfest in Michigan with my girlfriend. A lot of cool bands are playing this year and I figured I'd post some pictures of the Merch gymnasium, I did bring a bit extra so if anyone is desperate for something that might not be online, I'm willing to help as much as I can!

WEATHERBOX "Follow The Rattle Of..." 12-inch EP
shawnayala90 replied to scottheisel's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Is there anywhere I could get this? Or is anyone willing to sell theirs? Just got my splatter copy of Flies in All Directions in and would love to get this. -
So now that we are all excitedly awaiting our records, let's talk about the music. This album just keeps giving and each of the 13 songs are incredible. But my favorites are probably the ones that reference what's going on musically in the song. Like when he sings "hammer on" during the tapped bridge of Radio Hive, or the dragged out (but super awesome) outro to Drag Out. Apart from those songs I've been really loving fresh prints, the redone kickflips, ghost mall, and damn if dark all night and microcosm aren't perfect softer departures. What about you guys?

Just ordered this. I've not yet listened though.
