WTB Joie de Vivre - Summer Months 12" Black/150
Troy plays bass replied to kurtfizzard's topic in Sale/Trade/Wants
There's one of these with my address on it lost somewhere in the depths of the US postal service. I would sell it to you if I had it. The band had run out when we finally decided it wasn't getting to my house, but they were cool and gave me a WABTT test pressing instead. Good luck on your search! -
No Sleep Records 2013 Vinyl Subscription
Troy plays bass replied to californiaflow's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Yeah, the labels for the Warehouse sessions actually look really cool, so I had no issue with that. There's a No Sleep logo on the Swellers 10" labels, so I assume those were made for the new pressing. I could be wrong though, and like the obi things, it's not a big deal. Just wanted to let people know.- 306 replies

Should have mentioned that the two records without obi strips also don't have the subscription B-side labels.- 306 replies

No Sleep Records 2013 Vinyl Subscription
Troy plays bass replied to californiaflow's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I didn't even know they had said some wouldn't have obi strips. It's obviously not that big of a deal - records are records, but the inconsistency surprised me.- 306 replies

No Sleep Records 2013 Vinyl Subscription
Troy plays bass replied to californiaflow's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Got my most recent sub package today. For anyone wondering, it has B&C, State Faults, Sainthood Reps, TRC, Warehouse Sessions, and both Swellers releases. The Swellers 10" and the Warehouse Sessions were shrink-wrapped and don't have the obi-strip things, which I found surprising (especially for the Warehouse Sessions, since that was subscription exclusive.- 306 replies

PO: Polar Bear Club - Death Chorus
Troy plays bass replied to IanRees's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
This one isn't bad by any means, but I don't like it as much as "Blood Balloon" or "Upstate Mosquito." -
PO: State Faults - Resonate/Desperate
Troy plays bass replied to cwhitmuzik's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I really like this album. The transition from "Spectral" into "Incantations" is crazy. -
No Sleep Records 2013 Vinyl Subscription
Troy plays bass replied to californiaflow's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I can't decide yet if I want to go for it again next year. I definitely enjoyed having it, but I probably only would have bought five or six of the releases on their own However, they'll probably start announcing some cool releases for early 2014 next week and sucker me in again. Plus there will probably be a new La Dispute LP next year, and that in and of itself is tempting.- 306 replies

PO SOON: Transit - Futures and Sutures 7"
Troy plays bass replied to gmoney's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I'll grab this in the future. Probably once the Polar Bear Club bundles get split up and I get the Blood Balloon 7" by itself. -
PO: Polar Bear Club - Death Chorus
Troy plays bass replied to IanRees's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I'm fighting the urge to do this so I don't get sick of it by the time the album is out. It's constantly in my head. -
WTB: The Graduate- Only Every Time
Troy plays bass replied to Princess Logan's topic in Sale/Trade/Wants
You might have missed my edit to my previous post, but I put my copy on my new turntable just for kicks, and it pretty much played through the part that used to have a giant skip on my old table! No idea what the difference is, but I'm happy. That said, I will definitely help you with any Graduate-related ritual. I really do hope you can find a copy soon, and I'll let you know if I see any posts about one around the web. -
WTB: The Graduate- Only Every Time
Troy plays bass replied to Princess Logan's topic in Sale/Trade/Wants
It is pretty terrible. I didn't even realize these were hard to find until very recently when I started looking for a replacement. There's one on Amazon $118, which I assumed was absurd, but maybe it's not if they never show up on Ebay or anything. I also kick myself occasionally for not buying the CD for $2 in a Hot Topic that was closing a few years ago. Even that is like $16 on Amazon now. EDIT: I put my copy on again because I got a new turntable since the last time I tried to listen to it. I didn't think that would make a difference, but it played right through the spot that used to have a terrible skip with only a couple tiny pops! It's a Christmas miracle. Best of luck in your search! -
WTB: The Graduate- Only Every Time
Troy plays bass replied to Princess Logan's topic in Sale/Trade/Wants
I assume that you want a copy you can actually listen to, but if for some reason you don't, I'll send you my copy that has a giant scratch (I honestly don't know how it got there) in the middle of "Permanent Tourists" for the cost of shipping. Either way, I'm in the same boat as you. I love this record, and I'm really bummed that I can only listen to one side of it. -
A Loss For Words - Before It Caves (Vinyl?)
Troy plays bass replied to SeeMoreGlass's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
This record really did get lost in the shuffle of all the ADTR news around that time. Also, all of the promo videos for this came off weird, like the people in them (many of whom I like a lot) were just begging you to buy the record instead of being genuinely excited about it. Regardless, my biggest complaint about this album is the guest vocalists. I don't mind a good guest spot, even if it seems like it's trying to sell records by association, and I love Soupy, Jimmy Stadt, and Lynn Gunn's parts, but in the context of the album, they just highlight the fact that AL4W's vocalist isn't anywhere near the same level. -
I'm very glad I hadn't already spent the money my grandma gave my for my birthday last week. A good chunk of it went to this. I went with DP, I+L on black, Swans, Snails CD, and that Format starter kit because I like the shirt and wanted the DVD anyway.

I hope one of the long overdue things is releasing a studio version of "What the Fuck." That is such a great song. I don't see another Format tour happening soon, if ever. I'd buy tickets in a second if it happened though. Whenever that Dog Problems preorder goes up, I'm going to splurge on Format merch. There's a lot of cool stuff in that store.

Free bump because it was cool meeting you at the TBS show the other day. Sorry you have to sell that 3EB record, especially after we talked about how much it means to you.
