It looks like he's trying to make his store an experience more than a simple store which is honorable.

for most situations i'd agree with this, but jack is hardly whoring out his back catalog. at least a new jack album every year since this man opened (DW, JW, etc) and producing tons of singles and bands people would otherwise never hear of (and some i wish i didn't), the man is a workaholic and doing more for vinyl than arguably anyone today.

With that argument, isn't all merchandising just "gimmicky bullshit"? At least he's doing SOMETHING. I think he works hard enough as it is, that he's allowed to blow his money on a photo booth, mold maker, and 16mm reel projector and put them in his store. If I had the disposable income and fandom, I would, too. He could just hide away in a house somewhere in the suburbs of Nashville and pretend like his fans don't exist.

Shit is hilarious. This will be Graceland in 30 years.

I'm not a White Stripes or Jack White fan, but really, it's just promotional stuff. It gets his store talked about, and really record stores in general. Plus his gimmicks get people talking about vinyl and buying music in general.
I get the "ugh, here we go again" mentality but I don't see the problem with it,

Working on it. Should be an update released this week

the free shipping on amazon.ca only works if you are shipping to a Canadian address.

$25, yeah. I'm considering that route myself.

The clap sounds at the beginning make me think Craig Ferguson is going to start his twitter jingle.

hotel is on pike st, walked down to the market, and up to 10th ave today, pretty awesome city.

Keep and eye out for these to pop up again, as they always do with merchdirect. They hold stuff back incase of a defected product, and there is always overun. They may not be up again for a while, but there will be more eventually I'm sure.

They're going to be doing additional pressings. The original intent was not. The community spoke, and were heard by the proper authorities. Changes were made. Yay, capitalism.

Nah, it makes perfect sense. Tooth & Nail isn't just a huge label, they're an EMI subsidiary. They don't care about vinyl because the money they'll make on selling 500 LPs equals out to about a week of Jeremy Camp iTunes sales for them. Their vinyl releases are probably a one man operation, too, except it's one of a million things that one man is responsible for. Now that they seem to be getting wind of the demand, they'll probably mail a half-dozen CD masters off to a pressing plant and make a quick buck, but it's just not economically viable for them to give a fuck.

I think people have really under-estimated the lack of fucks given by T&N/SS in regards to vinyl. We can thank broken circles for taking the time and care to release a lot of their back catalog and its funny to me that a 1 man operation can release a record more efficiently than a huge label that contracts their webstore to a 3rd party. This whole thing reads like "fine, just do a pressing and get rid of these people that keep bugging us about it." now its "oh shit, we can make some money. Well here comes the landslide folks." but hey, cool that people that missed out will get a copy with another pressing. Here's to hoping they buck up and press the chariot LPs.

I, too, love being passive aggressive with emoticons

It was funny. Laugh

Holy shit, reading comprehension y'all.
There were 60 of each color sold online. The /100 thing was pulled out of thin air and should be disregarded, there is no way in hell there were less than 300 (or more likely 1000) total made, especially for a highly anticipated EMI-owned release. More of these will definitely be available in the future.
Not to mention the fact that this hasn't been announced on any ACB or T&N social media. It appears to have been a fluke that it ever went up.

They underestimate the power of VC bhahaha

NIN didn't break up. Reznor just said at the time that it would no longer be a touring entity but that there would still be NIN music being done.

Aren't we supposed to put Mike's address as the return address?

I've done it before, who says they have to know?

It's all on the site at LatheCuts.com.

this forum should buy up all the copies, and flip them all on ebay.
it would boost our forums economy ten fold.

My sound quality has been improving a LOT. I'm exclusively doing clear, square plastic now. 5", 7", and 8". Very quick turn time. I can also do semi flexis (that you can cut with scissors) and picture discs.

Did not order from the site before you guys start going nuts on why you dont have yours.
