Repress. No idea if it's using a different master or different plates.

Pretty sure what you're referring to is surface noise, and it sounds like a pressing fault in this instance. I recently purchased a copy of Disillusion's Ayam, and even after cleaning with my record doctor v, it still had surface noise throughout. I reached out to the vendor who I bought the record from and they sent me a new copy, which has almost no surface noise. If yours is unbearable, I would reach out to seller, request a refund and send it back. You could try giving it a run through at 45rpm or even 78rpm, as that's supposedly a trick that can sometimes alleviate surface noise. Didn't work for me with Ayam, however.
Regarding returning the record doctor, I wouldn't. I buy plenty of brand new records that come out of the sleeve looking pretty dirty. It's not going to be a magic cure all that fixes a beat up record, or one that has a pressing defect from the plant, but with help with normal records with some debris, and help with the longevity of your needle.

Not that extreme, but didn't want to start a new thread for it. Scar Symmetry is releasing a bunch of their albums on vinyl.

Outrun the Sunlight are re-releasing their debut album Return of Inertia. Everything was redone, hence the 2.0 in the name. This album is definitely heavier than their later work, so if instrumental djent sounds up your alley, check it out.
Four variants, two US, two Europe, all out of 125 each.

Right? I’m assuming the only way it will correct is if external market factors (recession) force people to stop buying vinyl. Thus labels reduce their quotas and things eventually correct?
They could build more factories but the production capacity would have to pass demand for a bit and then they’d end up with unused capacity, which can’t scale down easily.
Correct. Given the cost to build a production facility that can't pivot to produce something else (at least I'm not aware of), it's far easier to raise the price to the point where you curb demand to meet supply. It doesn't seem we've reached that point yet given vinyl record sales, so a bit concerning that, in theory, we could continue to see prices climb to $40-50 for a single LP. I don't think we've seen that yet since people seem fine waiting a year for a record to show up, and that has keep the price from the plants artificially lower.

Dropped price on Saosin to $60 shipped.

It does!

Heretoir's first album was remixed and remastered and is being reissued on vinyl. Silver limited to 149, black unknown. I imagine shipping to the US will be less than ideal...

Edit: Up on Evil Greed as well.

Holy shitballs! Just got my Autotheism pinwheel. One of my most regretted misses. This just got bumped up top of my cleaning list!
These labels need to start using poly lined sleeves already! It's just pathetic...
Did you get shipping notification? I haven't received anything yet.

I use a DAK anti static brush, as it has both a felt pad and bristles, so best of both worlds from my perspective.
Along with the record cleaning machine that was already suggested, consider looking into a Onzow Zero Dust to clean your stylus, and if you have money to burn, the Milty Zerostat to help eliminate static electricity before you play a record.

I forget that this site has ads. I absolutely abhor websites with ads, lol. Not sure exactly but maybe it's the Brave browser that I use or in combination with a VPN. Also works awesome with YouTube. Absolutely no interruptions! 👍
Anyone else see ads here? If so, what browser do you use and do you use a VPN? (Sorry off topic)
Desktop: Chrome with uBlock Origin extension installed so I don't get ads.
Mobile (Android): Chrome -> Settings -> Site Settings -> Ads "Blocked on some sites"; Chrome -> Settings -> Privacy and Security -> Use secure DNS -> Choose another provider -> Provider URL -> https://dns.adguard.com/dns-query
With those two settings changes on mobile, I no longer get ads.

Arms and Sleepers album Black Paris 86 is getting a repress, assuming it hits the goal. It's the 15th anniversary with a bunch of extras. Test press bundles as well (don't know if they're still available, though). Link below.

So fun to have the entire album be completely brand new. Not already knowing & being familiar with ~1/3rd of it. It's weird hearing you guys be so demanding of a single before dedicating $ towards a project.
Bands change their sound, and sometimes go in a completely new direction. Hearing the single has saved me more than once from blindly throwing money down the drain, especially considering the costs of LPs these days. Sometimes the single feels out of place but fits in perfectly with the album so I miss out on pre-ordering the rarest variant, but this has been far more the exception than the rule.

I don't know what I was expecting when I clicked the link to the video, but I sincerely regret that decision.

Lol still available? 🤣
Probably not, but I have a copy of the clear with black splatter if you're interested. And a copy of Anon that I'd part with as well (in case you're looking for that too).

You may potentially hear a difference going from the Phono Box to the Tube Box, as tubes give a different sound. The bigger question is, will you like it? I demoed a tube preamp and a solid state, and I personally was not a fan of the sound tubes gave. The Debut Pro looks really nice, so enjoy it when you get it!

I plan on waiting as well to see the reviews on the quality this.
