Ooh sweet. $100 on discogs. Totally reasonable.

Tour vinyl Com/Clark split was sold out and unavailable at the Kansas City show tonight. Lame. Guess I'll have to pay flipper prices.

I wanna see the 8 track player they sent out.

Thanks. I ask because I may have to arrive late to the KC show, and if it starts promptly at 8pm, and Com opens, I may miss part of his set, which I will be bummed about. Though it looks like there is another artist performing that night in KC prior to Com and Clark.

TGSNick, do you know if Com is headlining all the shows on his current tour, or if he and Clark and swapping times on various dates? I thought I read somewhere that sometimes Com plays before Clark and vice versa.

Is Com headlining shows or Clark? Are they swapping who plays when depending on the date? I believe I've read that some shows Clark opens, and others Com does. Going to the show in KC and might have to arrive late, and definitely, definitely, definitely don't want to miss a second of CT's set.

Should of went with Sabbath

It's been so long since I ordered, I cannot recall what variant I purchased.

Sloth Records in Calgary was a smallish shop I enjoyed. Last time I was there the Canadian dollar was only $0.70 to $1 USD, so prices were good. Plus they had a lot of European titles that would be imports regularly in the US at inflated prices, but we're normally priced in Canada.

What's the verdict? B+? I love all their releases, but am surprisingly not rushing out the door to buy this album. thanks for the stream link.

5 tracks into this album and really enjoying it. Glad they are back with new material after 7 years.

Meant to answer you. Mine sounds excellent. Clean and quiet pressing. Looks like black glass. Beautiful.

On my birthday a few weeks ago, HHV sent me a "5 euros off" voucher for my next purchase. I'm not going to use the code. Someone can have it for the Radiohead vinyl. The code is: BIRTHDAY-267VHM Hope it works.

If it uses the same plates as the Fat Possum reissue, it will likely sound like garbage. I have the OP and the FP reissue. The reissue is laden with inner groove distortion and other surface noise. It's a shame because Simply Beautiful is an incredible song.

Opinions needed: I have a Ikea 2x4 cube record shelf which I lay on its side. I put my turntable, receiver, tape deck, etc. on top. The 8 cubes are completely full of records, and it seems pretty sturdy. I also have a 1x4 Ikea cube shelf, mostly full as well. I'm curious what you all think, good or bad idea, to place the 1x4 on top of the 2x4 to make it a 3x4 and then place my receiver and turntable etc on top of that. I would secure the two shelfs together with some metal bracing and screws. I'm mostly worried about it collapsing. My receiver does weigh like 40lbs and all those records.

My Fiona showed up with a nice fat gouge on track 1 of side D. Also, the jacket is once again very tight. Cannot seem to get the records back in easily.

I understand that, but the particular one in this track is new, or only used in their recent material. I could be wrong.

I think that synth you speak of must be new to the band, because they use it on Atomic as well. This was supposed to quote Derek's previous post.

Digging the single.

Is there a full stream available on a free site (i.e., not Spotify or Apple or whatever people use these days)?

Just came here to say that Fed Ex Smartpost sucks some major schweaty balls. My VMP package was supposed to be delivered tomorrow, but it got delayed until Saturday. It's literally just down the road from me, but it takes two days for the package to exchange hands between Fed Ex and USPS. Just gonna keep complaining to VMP. Ditch FedEx!!! Hey VMP, you ditch smartpost yet? Hey VMP, media mail is faster.

Just bought this. Love the single, know nothing about the band, limited experience with shoegaze, hope I don't regret it.

Looks like we may be getting Galactic Melt version 2, based on the sounds of this track and Memory. No complaints from me. Both are excellent.
