MCDELTAT

Just came here to post this. Today has been expensive. Grabbed a color in color.

Sigh. Still haven’t received my Oxenfree order from them that I ordered 2 years ago. That’s gonna be my permanent record.

This is live https://equal-vision-records.myshopify.com

Managed to grab a /250 Color in Color but that was slightly stressful since you have to create an account.

US always gets the bad variants haha

This was my thought as well ha. I wonder if it’s just because all the fancy ones are made in the EU anyways so it saved them on shipping costs.

US/UK vinyl is up in store. Although, I don’t see the grey/black one. Wonder if it already sold out.

Im excited for it. I found out about them from Warped Tour and Posthuman and proceeded to see them a few more times. So I’ve been waiting a long time. Interested in the description where it says they slow it down and experiment a lot more as well.

Looks like pre-orders will be going up around 8AM PST today. You can already see images of the 7 varíants now but don’t seem to be in any of the stores.

Song “Silent Wolf” is up now.

Variants taken from here https://www.harmsway13.com:

1. /?? Fog Marble (US Exclusive)

2. /?? Clear Smoke Vinyl (US Exclusive)

3. /?? Grey/Black Marble (US Exclusive)

4. /500 Silver (EU Exclusive)

5. /300 Crystal Clear w/ Black Dust

6. /500 White/Black Marble

7. /300 Cloudy Clear w/ Black Color in Color. Red/White Splatter.

Hate to see em go, but I get it. They can’t have been making much progress in terms of reach, despite still putting out bangers.

if anyone wants to offload the first cassettes, it’s the only thing I don’t have from them.

That’s called the fan base credit card right there. I’m good though, wanted the boxset because the first 3 albums are some of my most listened to albums.

Little Big League are a part of Michelle’s book, which is going to be a movie now… so that’ll be interesting. 

Yeah read the book as well. She has a solid chunk of pages about the band. I think I had heard them back then but was one of those that put it aside. Debated grabbing copies now for the sake of it and people are charging $70 now. Are we gonna have an American Football level retcon?

Interesting. I’ve been noticing they’ve had some new represses on Bandcamp but now this. They’ve got some stuff that probably has some pent up demand like Little Big League now that Japanese Breakfast is taking off.

Not sure how they’ll help new bands though.

Darn it. I really want a pink w/ black blob but $43 USD is eh. I think Jeff's Variant is just one of those explodey variants every metal has been doing recently. I.E. Full of Hell

Can’t find where someone mentions that the 7” adaptor doesn’t even work. Tried mine just now, absolutely does not. It was pretty tight, so went at it with an X-Acto and tried to push. The center hole shattered in two.

I glued it back together and will photograph it to convert to a 3D model and 3D Print one that actually works. I’ll post STL when my new printer comes in.

Got tickets to SF. See you nerds there.

I will also be in the pool of old dudes (32).

Hotelier is in my top 5 bands and I’ve never seen them. They were super active during this album, then only the 1-2 tours they did for Goodness and then all East coast.

The only time I could have gone was after work in Santa Ana and then all hell broke loose at work and I had to do work until like midnight. This is why IT people are angry all the time ha.

Might be a hot opinion but PH is top 2 for me from them. 

Musically, you might not be wrong. But didn’t he confirm in an interview that the lyrics on PH are just nonsense? So that’s a minor tick down for me because I like my mwY lyrics to be contextually rich.

Interesting. I honestly wasn’t super put off by the original variant, but I’ll bite. Just another fun story like why I have an extra A/B side of Pale Horses Deluxe.

Now to go fight on Discogs as to whether this constitutes a new release.

Grabbed a BBB /600. I don’t know, I feel like it might take a while to sell out, just because there are so many versions of the record.

Lol /300 already sold out. Hopefully they only allocated a few for the Spotify links, but I don’t think so since it went to the PN Merchnow.

You did. Got mine. Happy to report I got the Valentine’s postcard and 7” adaptor in mine. 27/100.

Hmmm. Honestly pretty boring new song "Punching Bag". 4 minute song about how punching a punching bag gets your anger out.

I still can't decide, but I think I like the blue the most so not gonna sweat getting this when I want. "Black Earth, WI" is the definition of a track for a montage or roadtrip. So good. Agreed on "It's Alive" not giving much in the way of dynamics of interesting parts.

Seems our trend for this band is to never create a new thread ha. I'll do the same. New album "The Window" is up for pre-order now on their bandcamp. Produced by Chris Walla. There's a new single today and the previous single that's a long, winding 9 minute song.

/200 Window Pink

/300 180g Black

/1,250 Morning Blue

Did yours ship from North Carolina like someone’s boxset apparently did? Or somewhere else? Assumed these would come from Sherman Oaks/Burbank.

Correct. Greensboro NC. 

My copy of The Starting Line is coming in today. So yeah, gonna be a while.

Bummed I missed the PN variants. Waiting for Zia to post the indie. Up at Bullmoose but I’m too lazy to research if they’re still anti-worker.
