No-State

I'm curious as to how far apart the release from De-loused to Amputecture was.

I'm assuming the same wait will be until Frances is announced, I'm assuming.

Because that would be pretty sweet, unless my hopes are too high. I'm sure it shouldn't be too far behind.

 

Release dates were less than a month apart according to discogs. If MOV were going to be doing Frances you'd probably be hearing about it by now. Start holding your breath.

How is it terrible service?

It was originally supposed to ship end of MAY after its release date on may 20th.

They changed the date to a month later no explanation. The record is in stores and over a month later people who 'Pre Ordered" are still waiting.

 

I'm sure if they had just explained why the wait people wouldn't feel so annoyed.

 

I emailed them and was told mid June before the date changed on the site. I'm now just hoping it doesn't get cancelled

Has anyone heard of a band called 'Gruvis Malt'

Anything they did would be amazing on vinyl. One of my all time favourite bands.

That's your first problem.

 

 

That's your second.

 

 

first world problems

That's never really a good idea as you are causing friction on the fragile playing surface regardless of the type of mat or platter used so I doubt for that it would make a lot of difference, but obviously if the mat moves with the record as the platter still spins then the friction is going on between the platter and mat rather than the mat and record so that might help in your choice.

 

To stop that sort of behaviour I employ shouting and in extreme cases violence when anyone else gets within 10 feet of my turntable which works for me.

 

Joking aside the playing surface of a record if handled and looked after properly will last for decades but not very long if it's not so it sounds more like a training and general care issue

In that case might need to stick with a slip mat to minimise the damage as I'm not always around to supervise little ( and big ) hands. After some strict training (myself included) static is my next biggest issue. Any suggestions??

Meshuggah - Chaosphere

Cursed - II

Mr bungle - Mr bungle

Paco de Lucia - Entre dos aguas

Mariachi El Bronx - Mariachi El Bronx I

Never pressed but should be:

Ephel duath - A pain necessary to know.

Sevedust - Home

Gruvis malt - all albums!!

So stoked for this!

To clarify usually the record is being turned over before it has completely stopped spinning. Hence my original question.

I didn't want to have to post a huge article stating all my reasons and motivations but unfortunately I'm not the only one using the turntable I have a wife and kids and friends who use my turntable. For my first post on this site I was hoping that it would be full of knowledgable people who would post helpful answers and insights.

Be more attentive to your actions. Problem solved.

As a newbie I've been thinking about upgrading from the felt slip mat my turntable came with, to a cork platter mat as I've read it produces a better sound and may cure my static problem.

My only hesitation with changing is as i'm a bit of a clutz and I'm weary that if the record is 'stopped' currently the mat will slip but if I change to a platter mat if the same happens is it likely to damage the record or the turntable?? Are there any other pros / cons??
