I had a preorder with Merchbucket ordered that was supposed to ship Spring 2023 and still hasn't shipped for anyone. I wouldn't recommend anyone buying this unless they can't live without it. Tragic Hero is hella shady and already went bankrupt once. It definitely makes me glad I got a copy for less than $20 many years ago.

“All ETID are still shipping out and should be done in the next 7-10 days. Once shipped you’ll get tracking.”

 

Email response I got. 

You and everyone else lol. After I chewed them out with the overcharge and pointed out how early I ordered it magically shipped the next day and was delivered today. Still gonna file a credit card dispute regarding the shipping though.

FAT117 - June 14, 2024

Twenty years after Me First and the Gimme Gimmes ruined Johnny's Bar Mitzvah, punk rock's premier cover band is back to wreak havoc on another important coming-of-age ceremony. This time, as the album title reveals, it was a Quinceañera. Nobody attending had ever heard of Me First and the Gimme Gimmes before, and nobody knew what to expect.

maybe you all have learned your lesson and will stop ordering from Parting Gift???

I'm sure if many of us could have ordered elsewhere we would have. This is my second order with them and I didn't have any difficulty getting my first order which was Gutter Phenomenon. It seems like most of the problems started in the later part of 2023 aside from not pressing enough of certain records but they fixed that issue. Most of us ordered these before the Black Friday fiasco of unshipped orders.

3 weeks of these shipping have passed and a ton of people still don't have their copies. I sent an email today which shockingly was answered within a few hours (they ignored my emails from November and December). Asked when they would be shipping by and was told "These are still all currently shipping" which is not an answer. They cc'd staff about the overcharge on shipping. I recreated the same order and sent a screenshot to show I was overcharged in November. We'll see if they do anything about that. I also pointed out I ordered 1 minute after they went on sale which they didn't acknowledge. It's amazing they have the power and ability to get these licensed and pressed but can't manage shipments to save their life. And having the artwork cut off and discolored is absurd. I know I can't be the only person pissed off about how bad they're handling this.

I got the 7" at their Baltimore date. $15 + tax. This was the first time out of hundreds of shows I've been to where I went to buy merch and they refused cash. Insane to me, especially a punk show, but I guess that's becoming more of a thing. I haven't played it yet but I got the red/500. No insert, just the record and jacket in shrink wrap. A guy next to me bought the signed copy for $60 and it was white with blue and red splatter which sold out pretty quick. Apparently some people bought the signed at other dates and still got the red variant.

Best of luck! I know many smaller stores and newer stores have had difficulty getting the items they ask for and I hope it works out well for you!

Did they buy out the master from RFC?

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.

It's been  over 2 weeks of these allegedly shipping and I still haven't gotten tracking. I bought them the minute they went up. I swear we can't trust them to do anything right. It's not this hard for literally everyone else.

I want to like the new Camila Cabello song but something feels off & maybe a bit generic about it. It doesn’t help that they chorus sounds silly in its repetitiveness. 

I won't beat around the bush, it's really bad. Playboy Carti is unlistenable on top of it.

I emailed Take This To Heart about an estimate shipping date on my Last Night in Townorder and they replied on Monday saying "These are currently shipping. Should be out in 7-10 days. There is about 11k+ orders for us these next two weeks."

So I figure it's just a small team, trying to churn through a ton of orders to get them out the door.  

Hope they enjoy the extra $50,000+ they overcharged in shipping costs

I haven't gotten a notification. Some people said they didn't and they showed up. It's not on my informed delivery either. And I can confirm they charged almost $15 to ship 2 records via media mail uninsured.

Wonder why parker is forcing this band anymore, i mean i know there is money involved but it's so strange how can  someone be so bored and underwhelmed even in the music video selling a new record while you are only thinking about getting your work done as fast as possible and get down to a no pressure practice...

After listening to the new song and watching the video I sadly agree with you. I've always clowned the bands that think playing in 1 room makes a music video. It's a waste of time for something that should be visual art. The song feels very uninspired and going with the motions for what they've been doing. Not a bad song but definitely a lifeless song.

Haven't been to many shows since I last posted about Pool Kids which was August.

July:  Bayside, I Am The Avalance & Koyo at HMAC in Harrisburg, PA. Everything about that venue is amazing except for the sound.

October: Mouthbreather, Saltwound, Inferious and Belvebuth came really close to home which was surprising. Belvebuth was good if you like deathcore. Mouthbreather sounded like a completely different band. I love them but I wasn't enjoying it at all.

Kim Petras was incredible. She played 34 songs in 6 acts. Saying it was a full production is an understatement. However the opener was a "DJ" Alex Chapman. He's not a DJ. He pushes play, dances around, and everything was premixed. I wish I showed up late. For how much her show costs (which was justified based off her set) we should have had a real artist open. I have no shame trashing him. If I wanted to see something like his set I'd go to a local dive bar that can only pull 10 drunk people and have the same experience.

November: I'm gonna throw in comedy. Nikki Glaser and Monet X Change came to Rehoboth Beach DE for a comedy festival and I'm so stoked I have this close to home. It should happen again next year. Both shows were hilarious, free parking, really affordable. It was awesome. Hannah Einbinder cancelled for the second time in a year which sucks but I hope she can perform one day.

Periphery played a hometown show and actually played older material for once. They were good but they really need to use amps live. I think it would make a huge difference. The opener was an extremely talented  and very nice acoustic artist but I truly do not give a shit about acoustic music, especially covers.

December: Throwing in comedy again. I went to The Eric Andre Explosion. Really fun but was it worth $74? No. Thankfully I had Live Nation cash. Matthew Lesko was the surprise special guest which was really crazy and funny. I'll link below to unlock forgotten memories. DJ Douggpound was hilarious as always. There's a 30 minute special on Max that's basically the same thing as each show.

February: Silent Planet with Thornhill, Johnny Booth, Aviana and Nightlife. Again, I wish these bands would use amps! Silent Planet was dope, Thornhill was sadly underwhelming, Johnny Booth stole the show (they had Jeremy from Earth Groans as their sound guy and he's a very good producer which is why they sounded so good). Aviana was bad and I expected that. Nightlife is really sick, basically the successor to Issues so if you were an Issues fan I recommend them. Baltimore Soundstage changed the show and doors time 3 times. For some reason they thought a sold out show only needed 30 minutes for doors? Get it together.

Code Orange cancelled their tour with Gel, Grid Iron, Teenage Wrist and Soul Blind which sucks but I got to go to a hometown Jarhead Fertilizer show instead. They're always great. Inter Arma came through which was awesome. Crownovhornz played but I didn't watch their set. A really sick local band Pisscorpse killed it as always.

I only have 5 more shows and 1 festival planned for the year which kind of blows but we'll see what the year brings.

@jhulud can we please merge these 2 threads? They were posted at the same time.

How do I delete my duplicate thread? 

I've always been curious why this album took so long. Obviously we have Elder Brother, No Pressure, and Same Side. If anyone sees an interview where they talk about that let me know.

Black restocked as well.

• CLEAR RED / BLACK SPLATTER VINYL LP | 500 EDITION
• BLACK / RED CORNETTO VINYL LP | 500 EDITION

Might stick to grabbing this on tour. Can't justify $20 shipped for a 7" anymore.

Finally. The catalog number appears to start with DW so Deathwish Inc maybe? They'd be a good fit.

Edit: looks like they own the rights to every release except Desolate Peaks which is with Tiny Engines.
