Well it came in new, so I didn't think that would be an issue. But now the noob comes out... what do you mean by/how do you clean records? All I've ever seen is wiping it with an anti-static brush, is that considered cleaning it? I'm new to vinyl collective (and vinyl collecting) and looking into cleaning records, anti-static brushes, and cleaning and upkeep of my record player are things I plan on looking into on the forum when I get a chance.

I have the 5th pressing of Taking Back Sunday on red vinyl and it sounds horrible. I enjoy TBS, Thursday, Streetlight Manifesto and more, and like the idea of being able to get these albums on vinyl for less than $15 from Victory, but do all of them sound terrible? Does anyone else have the red copy, how does it sound? How do the other TAYF records and other records from Victory sound, is it worth continuing to buy from them (other than the fact that in general, they suck haha)? I don’t want this to turn into a Victory bashing thread, I just want to know if my copy is bad and I should try to pick up another one and others in the future, or if it’s a “you get what you pay for” kind of thing. Also, I understand that it's not going to sound as good as higher quality 180g records, but this is distorted and doesn't sound the same as even an mp3 sampled at 128k at all.

Do you have any other info? I really want to pick this up, not sure when it's going to be available though. Also, curious of the color. I literally check hot topic's site at least once a day to see if it's up. Would save me a lot of time to know exactly (or around) when it's going to be available through them.

hey man, I'm willing to sell my copy, sent you a message with details.

Any word on when the hot topic variant will be available?
