Shitty Rambo

"Like most bands in their position, Menzingers commit to living in the moment by proclaiming “we do politics now.”" The guys in Cursive are nearly twice their age and dedicating entire albums to that crap now lol. Nothing us minorities enjoy more than hearing white dudes from mostly white states who've only lived in mostly white metropolitan areas write songs about how hard it is to be a brown person lol.

Contrary to popular belief musicians tend to suck at doing basic things most able-bodied humans can do (I.E. - ship packages in a timely manner, get haircuts, abide by the morality they preach, go to the dentist, etc.). If you've already reached out to the band and got no response file a PayPal claim (assuming you used that to pay, always use that to pay) and let them sort it out for you. It certainly does suck when you want to support a indie artist or label directly and they're too incompetent to hold up their end of the bargain. Yeah, you can get busy doing either, but not busy enough to where you can't print a label and tape it to a mailer lol.

Sonically it's kinda all over the place, the singles make up the front half of the record then it kinda opens up and slightly treads in Rented World territory. I've only listen to it one time all the way through, so this just my initial impression.

Got my peacock copy today. It's basically just a swirly teal/blue green color. At this point I should know Menzingers records will never look like their mock-ups, yet I fall for it every time lol

HH, and Mama is some of the best material they've ever made! I wish they'd go back to that mindset, but, "orange man bad." *yawn*

I Am Gemini.

If this features those 3 tracks they just put out on YouTube I'm gonna pass. My brown ass has had my fill of hearing white dudes cry about their white guilt. At this point it's a hack bit lol.

Price gouging seems like it's their method to stay afloat, as if they hope someone not in the 'know' of record collecting comes across a listing like that, thinks it's an exclusive, and pulls the trigger. It sucks because in the early 2000's Interpunk was my go-to method of getting smaller band's merch/CDs. Over the years they've become an empty shell of what they once were. It's sad.

I have a feeling many opened colored copies wll be pop up on discogs for sub $20 in the next month or so.

Interpunk selling the indie variant with a $8 markup lol Don't worry, they'll throw in a random 7" from a crust punk band that broke up 20 years ago to sweeten the deal! https://www.interpunk.com/item.cfm?Item=248982

Damn! Glad I saw this bump when I did. Grabbed a copy, this new/old single is killer.

Got my vinyl copy of the new Prespective album today. Lots of hiss pops and skips, hoping that will settle down after a few plays. Great album though.

I've always used Google to search the boards, just type in "vinyl collective (whatever topic I'm looking for)" and usually find it instantly ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
