MCDELTAT

Just got a notification. Love when albums ship early on vinyl. It makes it feel exclusive. I would get a screen print, but kinda want to see how the variants turn out. Or maybe I'll just sell my regular copy.... don't know.

Hmmm I'll have to give it a listen now. If I can't get into it, will definately return this (it was $26 shipped from UO) and get me some Gorillaz because that album is dope.

Holy price batman..... not gonna pay that much for a 7". That's like my max for a 7" and it'd have to be rare, so I'll wait it out. It is nice that he has all 4 colors listed though...

hmm..... trying to find somewhere that has the Germs 7" and The Dillinger Escape Plan. Can only find DEP right now.

There's another thread for this here. Both src and Amazon put order up for it last month but Epitaph still hasn't said anything. I'm waiting to hear an official announcement just to know the colors and the actual release date.

Actually I've been thinking my shelf has been packed too tightly. Gotta get a 2x4 shelf when I move into my new apartment.

Yeah the Box Set is great and all the records sound good as well. But I have a question, the sides of my box started to bow out ever so slightly. How do I prevent that from happening/fix it? Light tape?

They were awesome and refunded the difference already. Will definitely go and buy some TA or SDF releases from them again to thank them. Speaking of which, anyone got opinions on what SDF releases I should start listening to understand them? I keep hearing singles and enjoy them, but given how many releases they have, it gets confusing.

..... is Deathwish cool about updating orders like that? I thought everything looked moderately on sale so I just went with it.

There was a code? I just thought that everything they added to the collection "Record Store Day 2017" had the sale applied. (If you look at the bottom of the release store page it has tags).

... keep wanting to see a sale from 6131 cause they got some stuff I want to get....

Thanks for the help guys. I think the coolest thing is that I always think of RSD as a US thing. So it's cool to see the UK and AUS stuff pop up.

Screw grammar. I'm a programmer and I get annoyed with dealing with syntax errors all day that I just turn off my mental grammar check unless it's in a final published paper. EDIT: To be honest, I do use Grammarly as well, so shame on them for not catching some arbitrary weird phrasing.

It's for today 4/20, but it fell in the time period so screw it. A sales a sale.

Been meaning to grab these. Amazing releases that I study to all the time.

Amen. I don't know how many times CA Sales tax has messed me up.

Man.... I just need a better record store. Mine is too small to get more than 1 of anything significant. I usually get in line at 5AM and still get only the 7"s I want. Saw the email from Creep Records today and got pretty jealous. Their giving out screenings to see Guardians of the Galaxy 2 to the first 5 people in line to ask. I think I'm going to go again this year just for the 'the thrill', grab some non-RSD titles like I always do, then order the RSD stuff online.

Note that the shipping is because it's not media mail. It also has a poster, a DVD, and some other stuff. Whenever they add extra crap to the package then they claim it can't be "media". ALSO: the vinyl ships two months after release date..... lame.

Thanks for finding that. I was searching for that video for my post above. Approaching the vinyl record from the injection molding direction is very interesting. On one hand, the product quality is very repeatable. Nearly every piece that comes from the mold is exactly the same as another. Depending on the material used as the master mold, the stampers can also last quite a long time, more than is currently accepted with the high pressure on stampers. That said though, tooling costs for injection molding are ridiculously high because things have to be done rigght the first time. I think that Sycom and Newbilt will find a nice equilibrium together if vinyl sales continue. Sycom will make it's way into plants for larger labels that have the start up money and need thousands of copies, and smaller labels will gravitate toward the more efficient and older methods.

This article has nothing to do with the quality of records but is super interesting if you're an engineer. Newbilt is the new company producing semi-automatic record presses. They're the supplier for the new Third Man plant machines. Interesting tidbits are that there are 22 US plants, 10-12 European ones, and about 3 in Asia. Newbilt is the only company making new vinyl presses, with a full line costing about $220,000 USD. If they go public any time soon, I'd invest in them honestly. You'd have to watch carefully, but it should grow for at least a few years. http://www.plasticsnews.com/article/20161007/NEWS/161009884/germanys-newbilt-machinery-tackles-the-niche-for-vinyl-record-presses

More than you'd think. Gotta Groove claims there are 22, listed here: http://www.gottagrooverecords.com/2009/07/every-vinyl-record-press-in-the-united-states/

Yeah man I listened to the first song and wanted to grab this, but since the /100 was sold out I wanted to wait. Sick variant. Listening now.

I absolutely did not. That's a bug. I quoted someone else from this page and that quote is not here lol

Looks like mine is coming in tomorrow and it's gonna be a huge mail day. Like 4+ records and some computer parts. Do you ever feel like your mail man hates you?
