  1. that’s sick!! good for Rx Bandits actually saying something.

     

    I know one band that doesn't even know if they were paid for these reissues. I’d be shocked if any of them were, especially any of the Drive Thru artists. both of the Reines folks are whack.
     

    call me annoying all you want. I care about bands, I work for bands, I care about integrity. this label continues to shit on these amazing records of our youth by not giving them the proper treatment. what’s annoying is reading all of your comments about how the label won’t return your emails, as if they actually care about you. true delusion on your part. only thing that makes sense is to not buy

    "Fuck, these guys suck but there is no other way to get this horribly put together record that looks and sounds like ass and is packaged in a paper mailer for a remotely reasonable price."

    Maybe have some standards as a consumer???

    Is anyone else feeling weird about giving DTR a bunch of money up front for things that aren’t in hand?

    I’m DTR / Parting Gift / Take This To Fart’s biggest critic, but even I don’t think you should feel weird about preordering from them. They always fulfill every preorder and promise.

     

    You should, however, feel a little goofy about giving them your hard earned money for a subpar product to most modern records manufactured  these days. You can expect a thin jacket, gatefold or otherwise. The records are standard 140g but can arrive warped due to their fulfillment company not including packing material in the mailers. It’s a volume game and cash grab at the end of the day. Less focus on quality / presentation. It’s a shame these classic releases are getting bare bones treatment. 
     

    For instance, I would LOVE to see (in person) the difference between The Early November - “The Mother, The Mechanic, and the Path” 3xLP from DTR / Parting Gift versus the version that TDR Records did years ago. TDR knocked that out of the park.
     

     

  4. not sure if this is widely known, but Parting Gift Records / Take This To Heart is behind the manufacturing of all these Drive-Thru reissues. the reason you all are paying a premium is because they are behind the scenes, putting out low quality reissues while gouging all of you on shipping. I grew up loving Drive Thru more than anything, but I cannot justify picking any of these up
