  1. It's a fun listen but $130 is taking the piss. Straight-up price gouging.
  2. DW256 — looks like Deathwish, the recent Hope Conspiracy EP had cat# DW254 — I am going to guess the title is "Children of the Moon". Really looking forward to this, I just recently got starburst copies of their two on Tiny Engines and really loved their most recent.
  3. If we see a normal copy of Coloring Book and Our Color Green, that would be ideal, I think. The rings release is awful for actually playing (never sought one out due to how many issues it has) and the 7"s for the latter are absurd. An LP or two to actually play them easily would be killer. Though, it's Glassjaw. If this release goes without a hitch I'll eat my hat.
  4. Cool deluxe edition, not gonna lie, but I like my rainbow splatter press and don't need the 7". Though I do like die-cut covers.
  5. It's a "galaxy" so it probably won't look as good as anyone thinks TBH. Very rarely do I see that type of variant looking more than passable. Huge shame that the Rainbo "starburst" disappeared with them and that the only thing trying to replace it is this "galaxy" business. Though if it does end up looking like a properly mixed-up yellow/red then I will take this back! Great band, regardless.
  6. Took a while for me to figure that out. The only place where I could find the location of the splatter mentioned is squirreled away on the "Discography" tab on Infant Island's site. The splatter there is confirmed to be a tour variant.
  7. Song is alright, though I'm gonna hold off ordering until I hear the whole thing as well—it's not like, anything special; and I expected some more interesting ideas from the 'ideal' combination of both these bands, IMO. We will see, it could be better in album-context.
  8. Crazy how fast they're selling, honestly. Good for them, though, the album is killer and I made the mistake of waiting on the 2017 repress because I thought it would sit around. Didn't do it this time—got the black/blue w/white splat one.
  9. If anyone sees or finds a distro for this in the UK, please let me know. Shipping is prohibitively expensive for me but I do really want to own this. Essential band
  10. Not gonna lie, I was seriously considering buying the original first press splatter literally yesterday. Glad I waited. Finally a gatefold for this, too—picked up the /500 splatter.
  11. As someone who has absolutely loved everything Loma Prieta has put out before this album, I'm... not really into this. The heavy upbeat melodic nature of some of the songs (especially Dose, Symbios, the fast parts of Dreamlessnessless...) kind of ruins the mood of the whole thing, for me. Some particularly fast & upbeat parts remind me of something like Jeff Rosenstock, which is an unfortunate comparison considering that reeeeally is not the tone I would be looking for out of something like this. It feels like tonal whiplash from all their albums (this is absolutely not the evolution I had hoped for after Self Portrait), I don't really know. Oh well. I don't particularly feel like it's going to grow on me, either, which is disappointing.
  12. TC have a HELL of a lot of audacity to sell that for $65. Having the paper "jackets" also be the vinyl sleeves themselves essentially means the release did not come with a proper jacket at all. Just two cardstock 'inners' with embossing, in a PVC sleeve. (Though feel free to correct me on this, as I don't own this release. Just going by what I've seen in pictures.) They could have at least put them in a double-wide single-pocket proper jacket, right? Did they really not do that? I don't personally understand how embossing unprinted heavy cardstock and making a single-color print on a PVC sleeve would even remotely end up with a per-unit price of $65. Something must have went terribly wrong in the production process because I've seen releases much more lavish than this (lol) go for the same price.
  13. Man... I would love to own this record, but €40 + shipping for the LP is too much for me. I do wish SPR would chill with the pricing on their records. It's way out of hand.
  14. Very happy for a repress. Got the orange one. Not sure exactly what's up with shipping to the UK (it was a little awkward to check out) but managed to do so for a decent price. One of the best of its kind... whether one describes it as 'emocore', 'proto-screamo / screamo', 'post-hardcore' etc... it's legendary.
  15. Really looking forward to new music, have been aching to hear another full-length.
