PO NOW: Death - Individual Thought Patterns
poweredbytrust replied to KaitouG's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
so in for this! My favorite Death album and the one of these reissues I've been waiting for most eagerly for sure. Also, I have the black Roadrunner/Cargo 2007 repress that I obtained three years ago for about 15€ new, just realized now that Discogs says it sells for around 40€ on average - which makes no sense as the (apparently identical) Metal Blade repress is available for about half of that. So yeah, if you're still missing Symbolic that should be the way to go! -

PO: The War On Drugs - A Deeper Understanding
poweredbytrust replied to patreeeek's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
nope, 33rpm. Can only speak for EU standard black (couldn't pass it up for 18€), but it does indeed sound amazing. If you were wondering about 45rpm with regard to quality, I can assure you that this record sounds at least equally as good as most of the 45rpm records that I can remember. -
PO: Beach Fossils- Somersault(June 2)
poweredbytrust replied to youspinmeround's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
just a little heads up for anyone planning to attend any of the upcoming shows: these guys totally kill it live. One of the best shows I've seen this year. Also, with regard to the hobby™, take note that they have the white w/ red splatter variant with them for sale as well next to standard black. Make sure to ask the merch guy as I saw them hand out standard copies to people who didn't ask for the splatter in specific. They also threw in those goodie bags (not sure if only for purchasers of the splatter or also for standard). Glad I held off buying until this point - the live show convinced me to give the record another chance and that splatter is surely one of the coolest-looking in my collection. -
PO NOW: Metallica - Master of Puppets (Remastered)
poweredbytrust replied to DC1221's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
yeah, that would be totally like... the original release? -
I could totally understand why they wouldn't ship internationally. No blame at all to this awesome label. However, their postings always say "we ship throughout the galaxy", which to me sounds as if they don't really care where people are/where they have to ship it to. They might have some kind of "international limit" though, like only a certain amount of intl. people get a package each time and after that they ship only domestic in order not to drown in shipping costs. I guess we'll never know, but I'll keep trying because their stuff is cool as hell.

didn't know that! But then it's even more weird that within the same pressing some copies are perfect while some are so faulty... -
PO: The War On Drugs - A Deeper Understanding
poweredbytrust replied to patreeeek's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Interesting.. so it's probably the US/North American version that is flawed and the EU copies are fine? -
what a time to be alive where Hundredth are mentioned in the shoegaze/dream pop thread. But indeed is their most recent record really 'gazy and atmospheric as opposed to their kind of cliché melodic hardcore sound from earlier stuff. I'll have to give them another chance I guess.

PO: The War On Drugs - A Deeper Understanding
poweredbytrust replied to patreeeek's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
so it seems like a couple of folks over at Discogs are complaining about pressing/sound issues with the EU (coke bottle) clear pressing, even single users with multiple copies. Any other EU folks here that can comment on this? I would like to have a nice copy if I spend 27€ (cheapest I could find) as opposed to about 20 for a black copy. This is shaping up to be a great album, but if the pressing sucks I'll gladly reside with the simple version. -

poweredbytrust replied to patreeeek's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
a friend of mine reported a broken site as well, works fine for me though. That being said, I'm about 3/4 in and it's totally great so far. Leave alone the opening track maybe, I still think it doesn't really fit. -
Turnover - Good Nature (8/25)
poweredbytrust replied to atticdemos's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Just a personal impression here. I think it's because of the lyrical content though. While the music on PV was also really laid-back and smoothed-out most of the time, the whole topic revolving around those songs was really grabbing sometimes with all the anxiety and emotional weight that came from those lines. That's what I meant by "intensity". GN seems to be kind of "weightless" in comparison which is no criticism but in fact - as stated above - something that not many bands could have pulled off in succession of a record such as PV. -
Turnover - Good Nature (8/25)
poweredbytrust replied to atticdemos's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Personally after having listened through it about 10 times now (which itself means it's definitely a good record to say the least) I still find PV to be more intense, more urging. However, keeping in mind the overall feel of the music and lyrical content have turned more or less completely, they pulled off something great here with the new album. Very much looking forward to receiving the vinyl and seeing these guys live in exactly one month! -
PO - Brand New - Science Fiction
poweredbytrust replied to marc32137's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
so, obviously the album art (the photo) has already been used by another artist back in 2011. https://slowdancemusic.bandcamp.com/album/risk-it-all lol -
Turnover - Good Nature (8/25)
poweredbytrust replied to atticdemos's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
cool, did you order from the US or UK store? I didn't get any kind of shipping confirmation but I'm also up for a nice surprise. Also, would you mind taking some pictures? How does the pressing sound? -
PO Now: Julien Baker - Turn Out the Lights
poweredbytrust replied to The Saint's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
6131 was back up when I visited the store, so I used the code. However it sold out while I was entering my shipping info. Don't know if it will still work for someone else, if not I apologize. -

poweredbytrust replied to patreeeek's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
new single sounds really weird to me and doesn't really fit with the other ones released so far. Probably have to give it a few more tries. -
PO now: Makthaverskan - III
poweredbytrust replied to poweredbytrust's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
thanks, I added this info to the starting post. On another note I'm glad the swirl is (likely) going to be the retail variant, sounds pretty neat! -
