PO Now: Whirr - Feels Like You (out on oct 31)
NapalmBrain replied to hyperg1ant's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
It had a little surface noise here and there and a tick during the piano intro and there is a dish warp but it plays through and sounds pretty serviceable. I'm not going to bother asking for a replacement, I doubt the next would be any better, I've gotten worse new records. -
PO Now: Whirr - Feels Like You (out on oct 31)
NapalmBrain replied to hyperg1ant's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
My sleeve was fine on Feels Like You, but the LP has a bubble or some yellow looking mark on one side and a small scratch on the other, not sure if it is going to affect play yet. I got it drying now since it sounded like it was a noisy pressing I went ahead and gave it a wet clean first. Been looking forward to owning a copy for awhile now -
PO Now: Whirr - Feels Like You (out on oct 31)
NapalmBrain replied to hyperg1ant's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Ugh don't like seeing 2 bad pressing reviews already. Mine shipped out on the 7th but got lost in purgatory for a few days, should be arriving by the end of the week though. I was gutted when I missed out on the first pressings, so I've been really looking forward to it. Any comment on Distressor? I already have the final Graveface pressing and I'm happy with it, so I am hesitant whether I want to double up although it would be cool to have the original cover. -

Redux sounds way better too -

NapalmBrain replied to hyperg1ant's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Just saw this, and grabbed Feels Like You. I was starting to worry I was going to have to drop 3 figures if I wanted a copy. I'm glad this pressing lasted a little longer. Thanks for the tip! -
Bad Brains Records (Reissue Campaign!)
NapalmBrain replied to MtrCtyWx's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Thanks for clearing that up, the punk note of self titled is tempting but I hate double dipping. This album is no sonic marvel, so I think I'll be good with my reissue from the earlier part of the decade. I have that RSD 7" already. I'm glad these will be available again widely, it's kinda dumb the reissue I have has been fetching $40 when it's just a run of the mill united repress.- 50 replies

Bad Brains Records (Reissue Campaign!)
NapalmBrain replied to MtrCtyWx's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I'd really like the punk note Rock For Light. I have copies of s/t and the 7" but I've wanted a copy for years and love that punk note project, if they ever used the Blondie ones for reissues I would have to buy them all on principle. It says coming soon though did they sell out already or has that one not dropped?- 50 replies

Daughters- S/T Repress in Semptember
NapalmBrain replied to fuckoffleatherjacket's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I was surprised AEC had this listed as special order (usually they show stock levels), so I threw 4 in the cart about a month ago and low and behold all 4 copies show up this week. I was able to get 1 of those for myself (black, was not expecting a color variant since it's usually the least limited variant for retail). So to anyone who missed out perhaps try requesting your local store orders you one, they may have held back a chunk of these for distros which may be why they sold out so quick online. -
PO: Seahaven - Halo of Hurt (11/20)
NapalmBrain replied to Kanellos's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
If anyone needs the indie variant https://vinylren.com/seahaven-halo-of-hurt-vinyl-lp/, we still have 2 copies left. It's a pretty good record, I'm not sure if I like it more than Reverie Lagoon but that has been in regular rotation since release and this is my first spin. I will say it's probably one of the least photogenic variants I've ever seen. It looks black if you try to take a picture, and even from a few feet away. -
PO: Seahaven - Halo of Hurt (11/20)
NapalmBrain replied to Kanellos's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
As cool as that looks, that's an expensive ass candle. I think I'll stick with the indie exclusive. Looks like my distro is going to fill my 3 copies I ordered, so one is going home with me but there will be 2 extras if anyone has no luck finding one locally -
PO: Germs - (MIA) The Complete Anthology
NapalmBrain replied to curator's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I got my copy today and it was worth the wait. Obviously not an audiophile release but Ryan Smith did a great job as always. It's a single pocket jacket with a 2 sided insert. Disc 1 is standard black Disc 2 is a Blue/Black Marble. Both discs were flat but off center. Disc 2 was not as bad but it was a tight squeeze on to the spindle on disc 1. This is a great way to get all their stuff in one purchase (minus live and studio outtakes). I'd highly recommend ordering a copy if you have not done so already. There have been some really great reissues this year and this up there as one of my favori -
PO Soon: Nothing - The Great Dismal (10/30/2020)
NapalmBrain replied to zaoza's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
It does sound pretty good compared to the last 2 which were really muddy even for shoegaze. I still think GoE is the best sounding Nothing record, that Heba Kadry mastering is wonderful. -
Showbread - No Sir, Nihilism Is Not Practical
NapalmBrain replied to rcafilm's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
As nostalgic as I am for this album I think I'll pass for now, I'd be shocked if this sold out and was going for a high secondary price later. I'll wait for an inevitable sale or secondary market buy down the line. Great record though one of the last bands I remember with a keytar -
PO Soon: Nothing - The Great Dismal (10/30/2020)
NapalmBrain replied to zaoza's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Whoops my dumbass sliced the obi and the cover opening up the shrink. Good thing I'm not trying to resell. The indie exclusive kind of came out cool, not exactly like the mock up but to be expected, I do not have any other variants like this. Spinning DOTBT while it dries. -
Jazz Music & Records Thread
NapalmBrain replied to somethingvinyl's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I got the ALS AAA myself yesterday, played it twice already. It was the best I've heard the album, I have not heard an original stereo but I have heard an original mono. I highly recommend anyone who enjoys this album to pick up a copy, not sure how many more times this is going to get cut from tape. -
THE OFFICIAL EBAY CRAZINESS THREAD
NapalmBrain replied to vinyljunkie's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
The unauthorized releases are the rights holders generally, put up a Metallica boot it's going to get taken down, pick an artist who doesn't care or have the money to patrol ebay and they don't get policed. -
PO: Seahaven - Halo of Hurt (11/20)
NapalmBrain replied to Kanellos's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Looking forward to this, going to grab the indie variant at release. I could use some new Seahaven right about now. -
SOUL, FUNK, and BLUES Record Thread
NapalmBrain replied to lexicondevil's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I found them to be very inspiring in their banter on stage when I saw them both in store and that evening at a local venue. They all just had great attitudes, and I'm glad they still have Max playing guitar, I had some great conversations, his eyes lit up when I told him the venue had a leslie amp they could plug into. That evening I saw 4 people carrying that monster out onto the stage and they sounded fantastic. If you want to see their in store, I guess it's been 2 years my how time flies -
SOUL, FUNK, and BLUES Record Thread
NapalmBrain replied to lexicondevil's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I gotta check out the War & Treaty, truly amazing humans so full of love. They played my record store last year and introduced themselves with big embracing hugs. I have a signed CD Healing Tide, they took it literal when my coworkers told them to sign it "to the guy behind the register". Glad they are getting some traction and have signed with Rounder for their new album. -
Chelsea Wolfe- Abyss- Summer 2015
NapalmBrain replied to youspinmeround's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
ooh been wanting a copy for a long time, I hate half and half variants so I might just pick this up at retail in December, but I'm tempted. Birth Of Violence is one of the best sounding new releases from the last decade to my ears, the dynamics are incredible and the vinyl is dead quiet
