MCDELTAT

I feel like you’re right, but it has its purpose in my eyes. Part of the write up talks about how despite the bands being sonically very different, they’re cut from the same cloth. I think having the tracks that are very FOH tracks and some that are NOTHING tracks clarifies that. It feels like a calm after the storm. The noise and rumbling is gone, but the same despair and dread can be there as you seek to rebuild.

I didn’t even look at the list but you have the Fearless comp Punk Goes Christmas. I’ve been wanting a repress of that for so long. The original release went on sale multiple years in a row and then the aftermarket immediately went “Yeah this is worth $120”

Lol This is why I don’t Black Friday. I read this and bought the LP+Book combo and didn’t use the coupon. Better get a free shirt now.

WTF? Bands really are teetering the line here. That ETID repress still had every variant up for sale. I was going to grab the color in color from Smartpunk but that sold out. So then I went for the cornetto from the band but they wanted $15 shipping, making this $65 shipped for a 2xLP. Nope. I’m out.

Thanks for reminding me I need to email them about my record as well. Got the tri-color and it has a warp. It’s about half of track 1 on side C/D. Tried adding more tracking force but it just skips. For a $12 record I might have put up with this, but a $50 first time on vinyl record? They gotta do better.

Personally was about to grab it because I own everything from them, but oooff. $85 dollars is steep. It seems worth the price but I don’t think you can even stream the remasters yet. Need to know what it sounds like before I bite.

This is an interesting one. Protest the Hero have announced a repress of their debut EP that they released when they were 16/17 years old.

Was going to order the two I actually wanted since they’re still up, but noticed it says no cancellations. I get it helps with flippers, but sigh. More expensive shipping and trying to sell this record “yayyyy”

Oh nice and easy. It was up like 30 seconds early. I actually grabbed the /2,000 bundle. The /1,000 variant does usually turn out better consistently, but meh. I’ll gamble on a good merge and splatter.

Oh I’m saying I’ll just go for the all 3 bundle and sell Hot Damn! At price.

That’s good news. I already have Hot Damn from the creep records repress a few years back but want LNIT and BD. If they made us add them separately, just have a feeling one would sell out and then force me into a loop of removing items that adds a few seconds that makes the other sell out. Ha

Also a standard press with alt cover: https://www.relapse.com/collections/nothing/products/nothing-guilty-of-everything-10-year-anniversary-12

When/where did they even announce this? Wrong week to delete social apps I guess.

Hadn’t listened to the digital that much until the day before my vinyl came in. Man this release is great. Vinyl sounds great, music itself is heavy, die-cut packaging is insane. I seriously just finished side B and flipped it right back over.

This was already discussed in the Baladeers Redefined thread, but I appreciate the thread. This band needs more attention. Hopefully they do another West coast tour so I can grab the /200. I get it’s hard for Alex while he’s doing his PhD. Curious what the band is going to do after that, I suppose it depends on how big they get.

Holy f^*% man. I did not cause I deleted social media for the last few weeks. Been waiting forever for this. Where’s the splatter at? Tour/band variant?

They better be pressing like 5,000+ of those bad boys. They sold 3K Coming Home in their first press super easy.

The /1,000 appears to be sold out. Band said it was running low and the button to add to cart is grayed out. Yeah not a fan of this price, and I do dabble in 7” records still.

I mean, in my opinion, it currently is. If there were an actual US recession, it’d truly pop for a few years at least. I’ve been somewhat vocal about being out. I’m currently doing an A-Z listening of my records (on N right now) and then selling 90%+ of it. I’m only delaying because I’m trying to figure out the best way. In the past I listed everything, collectors came and looted me like a new Diamond mine (no offense to any of you who bought from me), and then they left me with zero interest in the non-rare stuff. I’m also trying to figure out how to balance my life and selling. I’d likely have to limit it to max 20 sales per week, but then that would take 40+ weeks (a year) to sell off.

Yeah the singing portions made it sound like 2013 era metalcore. Not a huge fan of that aspect.

Song is called “Revelation”. They also have a 48 hour merch drop going on. But I’m not hyped on $35 tees so to each their own.

You got me… still use 24 hour time for most stuff because my brain can’t 12 AM/PM.

I just listened all the way through last night and get what you mean. This is a weird album and furthest from punch your face hardcore stuff. It goes heavy but also has a lot of sung songs. TBH a few of the later songs kinda reminded me of Adventures, at least vocally.

Lol I got one as well. My wife was like “Do you know what this is?” I cut it half way and saw the paper airplane with words on it and was like “Is this how I die? Some internet stalker mailed me a paper plane?” Guess I gotta buy this now since they payed $0.63 to mail me a plane.

Yeah my A/C are a pretty nice color in color that matches the washed out cover fairly well so not upset. Side B/D are basically just white though because of how the white fades in.
