No shipping confirmation yet, but I did receive an email for my digital download.  Good enough for now.

damn i was all disappointed when i saw grey on my album shrink wrap.  went looking at my paypal transaction and emails to figure it out..haha.

 

bout to post my photo up on the instagram.  check it out http://instagram.com/aviolentworld

Congrats on the variant, looks great!

Has anything been said about a hot topic variant other than speculation?

Check out this thread, http://boards.vinylcollective.com/topic/94396-upcoming-hot-topic-releases/?p=1762648

Travis mentions a white variant limited to 1200 copies for Bayside.

Call the Burger Records store they're so cool they'll tell you, plus their probably high out of their minds and will forget about confidentiality if it is confidential and all.

Will do.  Thanks for the suggestion.

Thanks for the update travis.  I'm glad I didn't preorder the three Hopeless releases.  I'd rather save on shipping.

Those bundles look awesome!  I hope mine shows up soon.

If anyone is familiar with Yacht Club, the side project of Ben Cook (Fucked Up) and Matt DeLong, and their rumored release on Burger Records I would love some more info.  I've tried contacting the label directly but haven't received and responses.  It was supposed to be a Tropicana 7", but I've never seen it available anywhere.  Thanks.

I ordered four random records from Bridge 9 for $20.  Now I wait with anticipation.

Placed my order.  I'm hoping for a New Found Glory record, beyond that anything new to me would be awesome.

I highly endorse the fact that anyone reading this thread go listen to Nick 13. You will not be disappointed.

Amen!  His eponymous album is amazing.  I was so stoked to hear that record after I finally gave Tiger Army a chance last year.

Excited for this.  I'll wait for the SRC variants though.  Thanks for the heads up.

Already on my third consecutive listen.  This album is blowing the doors off!

I had already snagged the clear variant the day it went up, but after seeing this thread I decided to grab the splatter and green variants too.  I'm really excited to see this in person, especially after all the compliments for Joe.

Definitely going to give this a listen tonight.  My bundle won't be here for another week or so, and I'm not that patient.

Yah not gonna give them $50 but I will buy the splatter.

 

LOL $13 for shipping fuck that I'll wait for Amazon to have it.

Hopeless is killing me lately with their shipping options.  I still want to preorder Taking Back Sunday and Bayside, but the cheapest option is UPS Ground.  I sent an email asking about the availability of Media Mail.  I hope they get this figured out soon.  For the three preorders I want it will be $17+ shipping.  Absurd.

Right on. Any help spreading the word would be appreciated. We're having an album release show in NYC on 2/20 if you know anyone on the east coast w similar music taste.

Glad to hear about the variant.  Unfortunately I don't know anyone in that part of the country, but I'll be sure to share with my family out west.  My aunt and mom both grew up on country, they'll love it!

Ocean Carolina - All The Way Home

I'm hoping for a hand numbered, 180 gram, clear variant /100.  According to the label, Old Hand Records, the first 100 orders receive this variant.

Edit:

Confirmed by OldHand that I'll definitely be receiving the variant I was hoping.  Stoked for this!

Also picked up a couple records from Company Ink Records.

Cartel - The Ransom - EP (Red Splatter /400)

Cartel - The Ransom - EP (Money Green /400)

Any rumored variants for this release?

Blaine, thank you for the kind words & support of independent music. As of right now it's only available on http://www.sharedmusicreview.com/OceanCarolina & the preorder is active now. The first 100 copies are being pressed on clear 180 gram vinyl & will be hand numbered. We're working on distribution but we're a small start-up label so it's quite a process. Thanks again, Tim

I just placed my order.  Fingers crossed I'll end up with a hand numbered, clear variant.

Blaine, we'd also sincerely appreciate if you'd leave your two cents on Ocean Carolina's page on Shared Music Review & I'm curious where you're located??

I'll be happy to leave a review.  I'm located in northern California, just outside Sacramento.

I'm listening to the album on Spotify right now, and it's fantastic!  By the second song, "Should I," my mom was singing along.  She loves country, and I always try to introduce her to as much new stuff as possible, because when I don't she settles for country radio which is complete trash.  Thanks again for the recommendation.  I will definitely be picking the record up.  Is it only available online, or can I request my local record store to stock it?

Atmosphere- Lucy Ford

 

They came out with The Lucy EP but they never released Lucy Ford on vinyl which kind of makes no sense since almost everything else he has ever released has been on vinyl.

I second this.

Heard that this is definitely getting a press this year. No more details than that though. 

That would be awesome!  Hopefully ETR keeps us in the loop.

Noooo, I totally meant to up vote this... Post something else so I right my wrong

The quote was definitely funny.  I gave them an up vote for you.

I'll probably end up with the red with black splatter variant.  I just need Hopeless, or rather MerchNow, to offer USPS Media Mail.

 

I retouched the cover, then print to correct scale with a printer A1 and all cut and put in gladsax frames. 

 

These frames are fixed, or rather stuck with magnetic strips, so I can remove them easily as maintaining good stability : behind the frames, it's a big mess  .

 

That's a great way to hide the mess!

I really like the idea.  A nice, custom piece of art to really accentuate your collection.  Kudos!
