Hey Guys - Jordan here. I designed the Anberlin boxset. Just wanted to let you know no corners were cut here. They do in fact come in sleeves and jackets. The jackets are single jackets on uncoated stock, with a diecut hole that reveals a gloss metellic gold sleeve inside. Both are very thick stock with black ink inside. No expense was spared, and no surface went unprinted with a super tight attention to detail. This thing is VERY heavy. You'll dig it if you're a collector. 

Don't own a single album of theirs on vinyl, so this is an obvious buy for me. Jus skeptical on quality considering each album is more than likely a single LP version. Aww who cares, here Anberlin take my money now...

I'd be surprised if this was more than 1500-2000 copies...I'd even guess it'd be limited to 1000 copies.  I won't deny there's notable demand for this but like I've said before, Cities was available for $14.99 in the Tooth and Nail store for over a year and it was limited to 1000 copies.  It took a long time to sell, and that's their most popular album. NTFP and Blueprints were also available from 3rd party sellers on Amazon for at least a year.  
 
Also, the nature of including every album in one box will turn some people off who own half the albums already (or all of them, like myself), and I doubt Anberlin wants to be stuck with a bunch of these unsold.  Which is why, if they're smart, they'd include something exclusive in the box set (Lost Songs) to entice more people to pull the trigger. 
 

Screw my wallet. $200? $300? $1,000,000?! Idgaf! This will be in my collection. I swear that on my life! 
 
 
 
 

Gutter Phenomenon is a straight up party record. So many nights of underage drinking went down with that as the soundtrack. 

Sweet!
 
Suppose to be 6 acts from what I remember.

Pre-ordered so fast. After Wrongdoers freakin blew my mind, no doubt that NJ will impress again. Plus packaging does look sick. Hoping the color in color red/white comes out looking as good as the pic. 
 
Also song is amazing. Stoked for this if you cant tell...

Samsies
 
Samsies again lol

First time I've heard the term dad rock. Didn't realize music could be categorized by age. 

Topshelf told me on Twitter a couple days ago that they'd be shipping this week.

Got the tri-color! Prolly a good % of those who got the tri-color were from VC....which makes sense...and is only fair  

can't find many relevant threads and don't want to start a new one. 
 
a gazillion presses of the first black keys album already exist, but there's a new hand-mixed starburst that looks pretty sweet for $18.

Cool story.

saw this band once, walked away after the singer starting talking about Jesus.

Just listened through the album at work in my office : 
 
1. I'm fairly certain some of my fellow workers are somewhat scared of me now
2. I'm now even MORE excited
 
This is album is brutal. Had forgotten all the sick southern riffs and breakdowns. And cant wait to blast this in my living room and feel the freaking floor shake

Superfan is the vinyl imprint for Gotee Records...and Mono vs. Stereo was a Gotee imprint label, as well--so there's the connection.  They master their releases for vinyl and they sound very good--none of that CD-direct-to-vinyl crap.  Very happy with the records I've bought from them in the past. 

I wonder if they will decide run size based on the number of POs.

Need to give Maylene another listen...

Doing this in a heartbeat. Fuck. Yes.

FUCK YES MAYLENE

Well. I got the test press I won yesterday
 

Would like to receive my copy that I ordered back during the Nixon administration.

Thinking realistically, probably not. I originally intended on canceling my order for a refund but then I got an email from MerchNow (who I contacted about the refund considering that's where NSR is right now) and they told me to contact Chris... so I just let it go. Not to mention this has since sold out and it's hard to find a copy of Suburbia for under $30 (as opposed to the $11 and change I paid for it with my pre-order of this record) so... I'll bite my tongue a little longer... I guess. I only hope we all live to see this record in our possession before we die of old age.

How's it sound? I think everyone's prolly wondering if the record we ordered 5 months ago has even been worth it...
