The trailer is incredibly misleading to make you think it's a raunchy love triangle movie with tennis. Sure, it is for a fraction of it, but overall it's a very deep and layered story that covers roughly 13 years of the main characters' lives. It's not predictable (opinion of course) and kept my attention the entire way through. The reviews have been stellar from what I can tell. My friend and I who went were genuinely surprised at how good it was.

After finding out who the director was and that Trent and Atticus scored it, I figured it had to be deeper than that trailer.

Saw Challengers tonight and agree it's so good. The score was incredible and even the general sound was fantastic. The writing was extremely well done on top of everything else.

Someone help me out here.  I saw the trailer for this and the whole thing was positioned as a love triangle romance movie with a loose tennis theme.  It looked super cheesy and disposable.  When I found out the boys scored it, I was surprised.

Was that trailer a red herring or something?  I didn’t get any kind of “there’s actually cool shit happening in this movie under the guise of this cheesy plot.”

beautiful, may a Frames repress be on the horizon as well 

Mike mentioned the label putting out Home and Minor will be reissuing all the other albums from Superball including Feed to Feed.

Looks like Home and Minor is popping up for preorder on various sites.

Anyone with the MOV and 30th want to weigh in on which one is better?  I’m tempted to buy this one but don’t need a second copy.  Or do I?

I love how the Newbury version is $60.

You made a good choice! I have eight copies now. This is the last one I will buy, I promise. 

Decided on the AP over the box.  I highly doubt I’ll listen to the extras more than once.

I have mine on order. Core comes out early March, but no release date for Purple yet. 

 

The 30th anniversary 2LP pressing of Core already crushed the MOV. Really excited to hear if it's even further improved. 

Tempted to pick it up since it’s currently discounted but kinda want to wait to hear if the AP version is that much better.

Yeah, me too. Would be horrible if it was Uk only…

I'm hoping this orange variant is an RSD exclusive and then they roll out a standard black internationally.  I really can't imagine they're doing a /1000 UK press only for the first time on vinyl, but I've seen crazier things.

I might have to offload my MOV copies for these:

Home & Minor RSD /1000

https://www.recordstoreday.co.uk/record/Home & Minor

If this is a UK only release, I need someone to help me out with securing a copy!

Not sure how this one didn’t show up on the board.  Dropped last Friday and it’s really great - and that’s coming from a non-fan of Yellowcard.

There’s only one variant left and they haven’t put up more since the first 2 sold through, so it looks like this might be it for the first pressing.

First single was obviously Ocean Avenue:

Blue splatter is gone.  Random eco-vinyl up /100.

Blue splatter is up now.  /200

Up on Vennart.com.  Variant out of 300.  Comes with a free download if you add the digital to your cart and use the code (I forgot).

https://www.vennart.com/shop

Last release had another variant pop up pretty quickly, so I can’t imagine this will be the only one.

New single:
 

Out 2/2/24, no preorder info yet but hoping it comes soon.  This one is self-released and is supposed to be “more reflective and somber” than his others.  

First single, Fractal, is out and it’s huge:

I mean, the price makes much more sense once it's in your hand.

 

Flimsy box, no-frills plain single sleeves, all black and white ink, no inserts, lyrics, or track listings.  At least they opted for clear plastic inners instead of sandpaper.  Only listened to 2x of them so far but sounded good to me.

 

Still, super glad to have these at an affordable price in a playable format.

 When I compare this set to something like Failure’s 92-96 box set, even if there was a ~$30 difference, it shows how bare bones this one is.  I’m sure it’s somewhat by design, sleek, simple, etc., but they could’ve at least printed on the spines of the jackets.

But, like you said, I’ve spun Coloring Book and Our Color Green, and they both sound excellent.  I should probably give them a cleaning as there are a few pops, but the sound quality really does shine here.

I cannot believe they just sold a 2xLP for $30.  I immediately bought it in case it was a fuck up.

Is that fog milk different than the fog smog? 

No idea!  Kinda seems like it would be the same.

Rainier Fog Smog Color Variant

Amazon

Looks like it’s getting a wide repress, which is cool because I sold my first press a while ago.

Got Turnstile and Matt Cameron yesterday, but still on the hunt for Olivia Rodrigo. Anyone know where I can track one of those down?

Looking for Olivia as well for my daughter.  I’m doubting I’ll find one for a reasonable price.

holy crap this awesome.  Swingset is sick!!!!!  what album is this?  I know nothing besides that they have an album called Pneuma that most people love and i heard it once or twice years ago. 

It’s the self titled album.  But all their albums rule.

$44…

It should pop up on Wax Bodega’s site.  They also just dropped a preorder for As Tall As Lions’ self-titled.

Remember seeing a while back on Reddit someone posted a 'Migrant: Revisited' upcoming as well. Maybe they are reimagining all of their albums in some way? That would be interesting. 

 

 

I think this is the audio from the live streams they did.  
 

I’m assuming Migrant revisited is a studio album, but I could be wrong given the only real info I’ve seen are some Insta stories.
