N8TRU got a reaction from Derek™ in Fuckin' USPS' Network Distribution Centers: the thread.
IMO there isn't a single reason other than their prime video service. I've been getting things faster or as fast from everywhere else. I'd rather support other businesses anyway.

N8TRU reacted to ThunderPantz in Fuckin' USPS' Network Distribution Centers: the thread.
I was nervous because I had something sent to me on the 8th and it had to go through there but it got to me just fine, I feel quite fortunate. Seems like a crap shoot these days, I hope you get resolution soon.
On a random note, had a mail lady yesterday mark a package as not deliverable because of the wrong address. I went out and found her a few stops over and talked to her about it. She said "oh, I thought it wouldn't go there." She did end up bringing it back, but damn...

N8TRU reacted to hookups96 in PO: Protest the Hero - Palimpsest (06/19/20)
I just received the ultimate vinyl set. 4 copies, a 7 inch and a few other things. And it’s all destroyed. They packed it in a 15x15 box with some bubble wrap and paper. Nothing to support the records at all.

N8TRU reacted to mertzrock in 'New Vinyl Quality Control – I’m Running Out of Patience' - An Article
Frankly, this guy has no clue about record pressing, the industry, pressing plants and quality control. I was an Ops Manager at a pressing plant and run a label. I would say that I’m more fit to talk about these issues.
This man, as a consumer (nervously listening to new records and looking for issues) is exactly the type of person who needs a new hobby and/or needs to switch back over to CDs.
Most new pressings are generally decent.
There are good and bad pressings from every plant. It’s ridiculous to say that everything from GZ or URP or Third Man is crap. I have great pressings from all of these places. I also have shitty pressings from what are known as the “better” plants around the world that will remain unnamed. It’s the nature of the format. Things happen along each step of record making that effect a pressing. Sometimes even while on the press, things change drastically within 5-10 records...Every plant basically has the same QC method. It’s how they’re enforced that sets aside quality. Also, every job that hits the press is generally “rushed” to move on to the next job...it’s always been this way and will always be this way.
Color contamination is a joke...learn about the extruder and nozzle first before you even talk about a spec of black or another color in your record. It’s the most annoying complaint and non-issue that exist in vinyl pressing.
Rant done...

It will get canceled eventually. I think it's been standard practice to wait as long as possible before canceling or rescheduling shows because of COVID. The show is still listed on the venue's website.

N8TRU got a reaction from copelandkid in PO NOW: DEFTONES- Ohms (9/25)
Same thoughts as above. I don't mean any disrespect to the bands that have said it...but when a band says they're doing a return to roots I very rarely agree.

N8TRU reacted to youspinmeround in PO NOW: DEFTONES- Ohms (9/25)
Every band says this crap this far into their career.
The single sounds nothing like adrenaline or around the fur

I can't remember the last time I had one. I'd like a good sale for vinyl or a free shipping deal but those haven't come around in a long time either.

150 - Color in Color (Dark Pink with Neon Magenta) - Wiretap Variant
150 - Half and Half - Big Scary Monsters Variant
110 - Cloudy - Band Variant
110 - 2 color side A, side B - Band Variant
150 - Black vinyl (Retail Variant)
weird variant choices so far. Maybe the two band variants will make more sense.

N8TRU reacted to Shitty Rambo in blink-182 - Dogs Eating Dogs
So apparently Blink's dropping an 8 track EP in the fall, 4 tracks sound like Nine, 4 sound like TOYPAJ material. Sounds like Quarantine is one of the latter batch so who knows at this point.
