Is Fat still putting out new records?

Just list them as colored vinyl and be done with it. Record collectors are irrational morons.

Got mine a week or so ago.

Weird, guess I'll have to email them. Thanks. 

Have people received the Fat website color version of Today's Empires? Never got a shipping confirmation.

Snagged a coloured LP. They’re still available, weirdly. 

I'm sure they pressed thousands. The days of 300 color runs are over for Fat.

I think Ray runs their social media. I haven't seen any comments about this. I always got weird vibes from the dude. I have no intention of supporting them anymore and hope Kody will step away and focus more on the Lillingtons or another project.

LOL step away from the corporate media. There is a reason we were only shown a less than 9 min clip and not the full 20+ min clip. 

 

What's the reason? What could possibly justify kneeling on a man's neck for 9 minutes while he begs you to get off of him because he's being suffocated to death? Because he used a counterfeit bill?

Username checks out.

It's pretty well known throughout the vinyl community that Fat/NOFX collectors are some of the biggest whiners when it comes to price entitlement. It is what it is. 🤷‍♂️

Must have something to do with their fan base being filled with 20-something year olds who glorify drug abuse and think that harassing women who show up to store events to buy records is ok.

 

100% does not surprise me based on my own experiences at the Fat Store but what happened with the harassing women?

I hope that the massive amount of Good Mourning records dumped for sale on Discogs just means that we'll be seeing a repress soon

Probably has more to do with the copy from 2017 that just sold for $150 on eBay. 

Face to Face up

The shirt was an extra $20. 

I had given up on this ever being made. So glad I was by my phone when it went up. 

Weird choice by Fat to put the box set link exclusively on their parler account.

This would be more clever and funny if you were Fat Mike. 

If I were Fat Mike I would silently giggle about this for 3 minutes while Hefe absolutely roasts me.

Nobody thinks Fat Mike is as clever and funny as Fat Mike thinks Fat Mike is clever and funny.

Genocidal Humanoidz is fucking killer.

Listen to American Girl by Tom Petty and Last Night by The Strokes. Your mind will 'holy cow' in a beefier way. Also, two bands palm muting a section does not make them the same. K, thanks!

Nah, Sum 41 famously created the concept of palm muting in the intro to In Too Deep and everyone else that palm mutes anything is copying Sum 41.

If you like Hippy Hippy Shake, you're going to love Stab You In The Heart...

God damn, you weren't kidding. They just blatantly stole it.

More like 1986-2004, but you could make a decent album if you took the best tracks off of uno, dos, and tre.

I just downloaded the album and am jumping around.

I'm not really a TOOL fan, I don't listen to them and I still need to listen to a couple of their albums.  I listened because of the HYPE and I'm glad I did because PNEUMA is the best song I've heard!  I can't stop listening to it and it makes me feel really really good, and not in a ''song I like'' kind of way, it makes my body feel good, my face feel good, my mind feel good, etc...  WTF is this???

 

Oh dear, it sounds like you've confused listening to a mediocre Tool song with taking MDMA.

To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Tool. The lyrics are extremely complex and without a solid grasp of the Fibonacci sequence most of the words will go over a typical listener's head. There's also Tool's uncommon time signatures which is deftly woven into their characterization - Maynard's personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these songs, to realize that they're not just music- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Tool truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humour in Maynard's famous song "Hooker With A Penis, " which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev's Russian epic Fathers and Sons I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Maynard James Keenan's genius unfolds itself on their record players. What fools... how I pity them. 😂 And yes by the way, I DO have an Ænima tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- And even they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand.

I remember reading an interview around the time of White that said EWBAITE and White were the result of Rivers not getting his way. You just have to accept that Rivers is one of the greatest alt-rock musicians of all time but he would rather make over-produced pop garbage.

This album is so much better than My Shame Is True. The amount of Dan songs makes me so happy.
