There is new track from ITTCT coming Feb 8th. I wasn't big fan of last record, maybe I didn't give it enough spins, but happy to see they are still around. Excited!

dude, you should really go back and revisit.  I didn't like it at first, but now, I think it may be their strongest effort.  The production is tremendous, and the songs are all so, so solid. 

I know it's impossible to compete with when you first heard Red Forest and ATEBTS but man, Bones is fucking killer.

Sweet, a new Slayer album!

yes thats a good one

The Daysleepers?  Yeah, and the guitarist told me it would never be repressed lol

Back in print! 

The Daysleepers - Creation is getting a repress finally.  The prices were very high on discogs, glad i waited.  They need 100 units sold to get it done via Diggers.  Go pick it up now!

it was as good as a solution as you could expect, a full refund and a free replacement (of a different variant).

that still sucks.  Did they ever say what actually happened to the records?  They're just....  lost?

9 minutes ago, daegor said:

Yup

yeah that's fucked up, sorry man.  What was the solution they offered?  I saw them mentioning something they were working out for the people affected. 

Man.  What i'd give to have them take proper time and attention to those songs.  I'm just not down with the aloof nature they treated gems like Waves, Seven Below, Pebbles, and Walls of the Cave.  Those are titanic songs.

Good riddance, they royally fucked up the last PO for Holy Fawn.

Sucks for all of the bands/labels impacted though, hopefully they get back on their feet quickly.

are you one of the ones who they lost the Discord variant?

I hope that their remark on vinyl pertains to both SOS and C:D .  If Evpatoria can press Golevka, there’s no reason why Jakob couldn’t make these 2 classics happen.

I'm trying, man.  The vinyl connect I was negotiating was initially only interested in Cale:Drew and Solace, but I'm hoping they'll be interested enough to do Subsets too. 

This is literally my #1 mission in life before i die, to make this happen and connect the right people.

From Jeff Boyle (Guitar).  He's so gracious and chill.  Really, really friendly dude.

I was hopping between the old tracks and the newly remastered tracks on Youtube. Can't say that I agree with that assessment (though clearly Youtube quality for tracks that were posted 10 years ago can be questionable). The only difference I was hearing is the new version sounds more polished. The old version has this static-ness over the music, almost like a lo-fi vibe. The remaster takes that away. (Sorry, not a seasoned music reviewer so that's the best way I can describe it.) Either way, not enough of a difference for a double dip on this one for me. Seems the few reviews that are posted on Discogs confirms the same; minimal difference to the OG press.

My biggest take-away is that this new master has a significantly lower bass response.  It's like they clipped out the low end, which I think is what gives it a cleaner overall presentation.  It's fine, it's really not that different at all to me tho haha.  i'm not sure the lay person would be able to tell the difference. 

Got CLOBBERED at their show in Boston to get the tour variant tho.  All the Deafheaven shows I'd seen before were energetic, but in a "Lets all stand here and groove with our bodies" kind of way.  Boston was stage-dive city and I got a concussion from having 2 folks land square on my head.  It was like I was seeing Earth Crisis lol. 

Deluxe editions are almost gone!

and now finally

 

my father my king 12”

 

a bit mad to charge $29.99 for a one sided 12” but i was a bit mad too and went for it

damnnnnn any info on US distribution?  i agree $30 for one side is steep, that's more than a dollar per minute of music haha

Hey friends!  So, this is a crazy thing - our band is doing our latest record on vinyl.  I figured what the hell, I'll share it here.  It's limited to 100 copies, 25 of which able to come as a deluxe edition with an alternate screen-printed cover.  The records will be pressed by Dunk! Pressing in Belgium on Milky Clear with Rainbow Splatter, and the screen print is being done by A Thousand Arms.  So, all the post-rock connections haha. 

We only have 8 of the deluxe editions left for purchase.  You can check it all

Glass Pony plays psychedelic, improvisational rock and roll.  We have big influences from Oasis, Phish, Bright Eyes, Moe, the Cure, etc.  We're a "jamband" but I don't quite think we fit the traditional mold of that.  I am a big post-rock and metal guy, so our jams, while groovy and danceable, are often angsty and dark. 

You can check out some tunes here:

Anyone buy that Ranges chessboard yet?

so, apparently there is a massive world of batshit crazy rich people who buy these wildly expensive chess sets and I guess they're expecting someone from that world to buy it.  I don't think there's a post-rock fan anywhere in the world with that kind of cash.  My friend did buy one of the other sets tho.

@abovetheearth gifted me the lone 3 digital tracks years ago from Ozean. The world is not yet full enough of this type of ethereal dreamy pop for me, but somehow I missed Moon Sounds Records vinyl treatment in 2017. It appears that the 12"  (/150 Black  /150 Blue) are going for moon money on discogs,  with a 55 have to 555 want ratio for this unknown, teenage ephemeral band.

Numero records has picked up their 'catalog' and says a 12" will be forthcoming in 2024. I will try to not to miss out this time.

Ozean digital tracks on bandcamp

Numero records digital release of 2 tracks + likely place for PO next year

 

holy crap this is amazing!!!

you can hear the tape warble from the cassette source there in the middle song haha

Yeah, I didn't realize the red/black was 900. I actually went ahead and grabbed a copy because who needs food anyway.

 

Not yet. Actually, I don't think I've checked out anything from SWBAD since Canopy (which is great).  I have some catching up to do.

DO IT.  I have a couple extras I got for people, because it sold out and the label is folding.  So if you like it, one of them can be yours for cost! 

It's got an old song from the Canopy era too, "Architeuthis".  So good!

Why is it the month I decide to start collecting again, all these gems drop?

I still haven't picked up Realms, and my wallet is dry. 

 

ha yeah i know the feeling.  I think Realms will stick around a bit.  Did you do North by Silent Whale yet? 

For anyone who missed out, I picked up 2 extra copies of Silent Whale 'North' (1 standard, 1 non-box deluxe) so if you don't want to pay Discogs flippers, let me know.  Yours for my cost.
