I didn't listen to it cause Tom seems like a big fucking loser now.

so...yes, this is 100% real and it'll be out on September 25th. I'm sure amazon will put their pre order back up and Banquet needs to edit their release date/info. For now you can go here to be notified when we launch pre orders: http://smarturl.it/movmoupneuma
 
We'll have this in both the US and UK stores and we'll be posting more info about this soon.

I wish this was owned by jay z, then I'd actually give a shit.

Nothing says rebellion like paying to be told what albums are good 

That splash page is a "new media" internet marketing solution to people googling "is VNYL a scam?" All the keywords are there- is, VNYL, a, scam- and I'm guessing they are trying to appear on the first page of those results and have some control over the info people get.
Then the content of the landing page is some soulless, post-post-appropriated-hipsterism detached irony bullshit that only people on the outside of the sincere, authentic original movement think is funny or irreverent or cool. Like someone who saw Borat in 2005 and their takeaway was saying "ITS A NICE! I LIKE! MY WIFE!" loudly is what was funny about the character and missing the context and satirical message behind the most annoying, surface parts of the movie.
This detached response to controversy is usually utilized by lower status groups deflecting authority and marginalizing the higher status group's power. Here, however, it's being used by a for-profit company that pissed off its paying customers in a "haters gonna hate" subtext and it feels like they think they are as cool and funny as counter-culture rebels telling authority and the mainstream to go kick rocks.

this. so annoying, haha! I GET a lot of our bands that are more known can definitely be defined with this term, but it gets thrown around for the vast majority of our roster [simply by association] too loosely.
 
toe is not an emo band. They have strong connections to the late 90's Chicago math rock / emo / instrumental scene and so I think that's mostly where that idea is rooted — but yeah, toe is a truly genre-less band and borrow elements of sooooo many genres effortlessly, tastefully and in wildly innovative ways. the actual 100% best band to ever exist ever ever ever lol <3

I'm sure there will be more chances for Yellow down the road without having to pay any flippers...  just keep your notification on TS and this thread.
 
And thanks to VC for the good chuckle on the "toe is emo" diversion -- added a few days to my life, I hope

Thank you, 14 year-old YouTuber who "loves the Beatles despite my age"

Get that emo tag out of here.

just took a couple real quick.

i miss matt fazzi dearly, but the new guy isn't too bad. doesn't have the same kind of energy that matt had, though.
also, prawn was phenomenal. honestly they sounded better than gates did - and I love gates.

Is anyone here actually being homophobic?
Also... I guess I see your guys' point here. Had a big intellectual discussion/debate about this topic tonight with a group of friends, although it was about the n-word. As silly as I think it is, you have to legitimize and internalize the outrage that some people feel when the word gay is used in a non-homosexual context.
But why do they get to be the ones who are outraged? Why can't the people who don't care and don't mean it as anything to do with sexuality be the ones who win? (devil's advocate here... because I honestly just don't care. I know that support/accept gay people and don't use it as a derogatory term towards people who are of that sexual orientation).
Blah. Anyway....
Are Deafheaven working on any new material does anyone know?
I've though about picking up the demo 12"... can anyone comment on whether its worth owning? I listen to Sunbather and Roads to Judah regularly

You really need to watch how you talk. You sound like a 12 year old on Xbox live

Wow, you guys.... relax. Obviously you all knew what I meant.
And yes, its 2015... are there really any people against gays left? That's so dumb.
Homophobic people are the lamest (gayest is the term we would have used in high school, but I do try not to use that any more because people get so uptight over it and we have to have a dumb sidebar like this whole thing).
Not sure why gay used in that context has nothing to do with homosexuality any more though, but that's just how it developed.
Nobody makes fun of gay people, and if they do, they're a fucking faggot who needs to get with the times.(watch South Park)
Anyway I have to get to work.... Deafheaven rules, gay people are just normal people too, people who hate gays are stupid, vinyl is awesome, blah blah blah.

And out come the liberals.

you don't have to like a band to be able to comment on the inherent cashgrabby-ness of the package

Hopefully no vocals this time.

Evidently this was sitting on my counter since yesterday and nobody told me. The blue is transparent. Looks really cool I'm person!
Also anyone dumping on Forgettable can suck brick kid!
(shout out to rynflnnry for the downvote <3)
