Schuyler just wrote me and said this...

”The label put the kibosh on that bc it was our first release with them. We are going to work out a perk for those few of you who ordered it. Brainstorming on that one. Probably guestlist on upcoming headlining tour in July”

I am confused...... how does a label put the "Kibosh" on something that was crowdfunded and supposedly created with that money? I am assuming that a band that crowdfunds and self funds something most likely owns the rights to it?

I haven’t listened to HIL in over a decade, myself, but couldn’t resist some $30 LP chat.  We technically only have ourselves to blame with all the “$30?  That’s like the cost of a meal at a restaurant.  Who can’t afford that? You cheap or something?  Get a new hobby” line of comments.  But I’m right there with you as far as voting with my wallet and not supporting new releases or labels at that price point, if I can.  I feel gross enough giving into Newbury once a blue moon.

You should give the new stuff a listen its actually quite good. Different than their first two albums but still enjoyable. This is a band that I never once imagined would still be making albums.

I’m in the same boat. Since copies are out there in the wild, can anyone speak to the sound of the album? 

Someone from the cave in Facebook group live-streamed it and I heard it. It’s definitely more in with the albums you mentioned you liked and not heavy at all.

Basically this. I got an email from Schuyler after I posted that they were slacking and could at least just give us an update or if the vinyl wasn’t gonna happen they could compensate us with something else. His email was basically defensive without any real answers. They sent everyone the black vinyl to hold us over while we wait but it wasn’t even signed like the color one was suppose to be. They only sold 67 bundles. Basically I paid $130 for a shirt and a hoodie and $20 for black vinyl. They could at very least just say “hey guys, sorry but we’re not doing the color vinyl with special packaging like we said we would, but here are some tickets or handwritten lyrics” or something. I don’t know. 

Yeah i almost purchased that same package but I didn't because it seemed costly. I am very glad I didn't but I am very disappointed to hear that they just tried to sweep it under the rug instead of address it. I also hate when bands play the victim card when they took peoples money and then don't update anyone. I really wish they would address this and get it resolved.

There is no difference between the kickstarter and the retail copies, right? Why can't they just send you one?! 

I think he ordered the $150 bundle that came with a hoodie and a supposed "colored" version that they never even did. They started deleting comments and ignoring people who asked about the colored version. I think it only sold about 80 so I think they just didn't do it and fucked everyone.

Some copies of the clear/white (actually 1 copy as it disappeared once I made my order with it), the grey and the black variants are back up on KRM EU

https://eu.kingsroadmerch.com/hydra-head-records/

 

I grabbed a clear before you posted this so I was the one who grabbed the only other one. 

I want The bled silent treatment on green! 

yeah i missed the clear and the yellow one. I might not get this and hunt down one of those. Sucks being on the west-coast and having it sold out before I wake. 

grabbed 20 to flip, these are going to fly off the shelf

i have baroness white purple

Yeah, I know. I figured it never hurts to ask.

of course! I wish you luck! I searched for it for years before finally finding one. The pressing is really great. 

its actually been hard to find for the past 4-5 years lol 

just a heads up the clear is available here for 69. https://www.discogs.com/sell/release/3997254?ev=rb

I had never heard of them either but this was a swift buy. I also grabbed the two albums by as we draw that I highly recommend if no one has heard them. It’s heavy but a great French band that’s on throatruiner. 

i grabbed this also

the rondo of blood and castlevania x soundtrack is back in stock BTW

the white is back in stock on merchnow

So it turns out that I accidentally bought two Castevania: Symphony of the Night tricolor records when I meant to get one and a Rondo of Blood. Does anyone have an extra Rondo that they would trade for the tricolor CV: Symphony?? lol

If no one has it and you can’t find it I will pay you for the symphony of night one! I was going to grab it but missed out =(.  So please don’t return it! Thank you! 

i have the red repress

I have the blue one I could part with. 

I am really curious how long the show will go till! I hope it's not the typical 30 minutes per band then 45-1 hour final act then over. Most of these bands 30 minutes is like 3 songs or less.

God damn this is good!

You mean god damn this is boring!!! They have been putting out the exact same album every time without fail. I used to be a fan but can’t listen to them anymore and they didn’t disappoint by making the same thing they did previously.
