While the record is en route...I'm listening to this streaming...and hot damn! It sounds so much more bigger and open and clearer. It's like listening all over again and noticing missed details and nuances.

Did all variants sell out?!?! I guess I checked my email way too late.

Shitty customer service is becoming more and more the norm these days. From small business to larger. And it's always once excuse after another. All of this bullshit could have been prevented & avoided if they had acknowledged the very first address change email and replied directly to confirm that it had been updated.

TYPE O NEGATIVE ‘LIFE IS KILLING ME’ 3LP (Limited Edition, Only 1000 m (revolvermag.com)

What in the Geocities hell was this?!?!?

I got caught up in the hype of this band when this record first dropped. I'll admit I'm still a fan and seen them live a few times.

$500 for a CD is fuckin’ ridiculous no matter how fancy & artsy & limited edition the packaging is. But hey…it’s par for the course for TOOL & their bullshit.

Not sure if they've been mentioned before...but reading the most recent issue of Decibel, noticed an ad for DREAMWHEEL and it completely piqued my interest. Listened to their stuff on BC and Spotify and it's so good. They have an EP coming out. Music | Dreamwheel (bandcamp.com)

I always forget…does 10C charge right away when ordering?

That's an understatement...they take longer than most places...a lot longer. BUT. They do eventually send them out and no issues. At least the few times I have ordered from them.

I am liking the new song. They've also announced a tour with Drug Church

To me, it feels like most Shoegaze et al fans are pretty entrenched & stubborn & hardline about the genre & unwilling to listen to other styles. With Nothing though, the band has attracted fans with more expanded tastes & listening habits. I mean, even the band members, original & newer, started in or are still doing bands & projects of varied non-Shoegaze stuff: Horror Show, Night Sins, White Lighter, Jesus Piece, etc. I can only speak for myself in loving both Nothing and Full Of Hell and being pretty excited for this collab record.

Really really really loving the new record.

They both have their own qualities. Funny enough, a friend reached out today asking if I still wrote & kept up with my records blog, and prompted me to revisit a few old posts. One of which was about the Spiderland remaster. https://theystillpressvinyl.wordpress.com/2014/07/03/an-open-letter-to-slints-spiderland/

Copy from Bullmoose arrived today. How long was it now since ordering it?

Not gonna lie. I spent a good 5-10 minutes looking through all her posts trying to figure out what her social media angle is. Is she trying to be some sort of “influencer” for a niche audience?

I needed some amusement today...this delivered. I love how after that tirade, someone asked her if the record plays...nah, she ignores the question and goes further in her meltdown. 🤣

I mean...I am not hating the first song out...
