  1. well shit didn't see the tidbit about the 1/4 chance of a signed copy but I won't be a pain in the ass and I've spent so damn much this weekend. I wish you all good luck if you do order the bundle
  2. I'm a big fan of the original club variant I have, but I agree with you I just can't double dip twice on albums I own and then I'd have to hunt down the second cover to complete the collection and I'm tapped out now after RSD haha
  3. They are live now, I added the screen print, you can also bundle it with the excellent Beachy Head album https://graveface.com/products/slowdive-everything-is-alive-graveface-variant-lp
  4. lined up an hour early and was 20th in line, the small mom and pop shop marked everything up 20% but had the 2nd best selection in town, and the #1 had over 200 in line, was worth it to not stand in line for hours and probably miss a title or 2. I got: In This Moment Hives - Black & White Gene Clark - No Other Sessions Lost In Translation OST Ashnikko for a friend Non-RSD: New Mary Timony on pink Used copy of the lone Stone Country album from 1968 in shrink Easy peasy, in and out in less than 2 hours plus free beer and coffee and food. Only missed the Slits but I'll live it wasn't a must have. I plan on grabbing the Slowdive if I can in a few hours
  5. please do! I am not as diehard as you but I just sent it 24 freddie points and grabbed Night School - Invoke and the Precocious Neophyte record since I am too poor to buy records or resub for the club right now
  6. Deathwish still has the /300 as far as I know I just ordered one for myself as an early Xmas present, no more vinyl purchases for me personally. I did snag a couple other records for my partner for our 3rd anniversary this coming sunday at the record shop today, they didn't have the full of hell/nothing so I figured no one else in town is likely to have one
  7. yep it sure is inside.Lol I'm pretty sure they added the single sided part after preorders. I'm only kind of upset, but it's Whirr and it's on me lol. On the plus side it is a good 3 songs
  8. Got shipping notification on the live album/single! Can't wait!
  9. Got it, got it cleaned and waiting for my girlfriend to be home any minute to spin it. Foldout insert looks great as well as the color. So the runouts look similar to old variants, there is also NRP in there which my research tells me is likely Nashville Record Productions likely did the mastering, no specific engineer credits I can sleuth out. Did old pressings have NRP? For how much these sold for you think someone would have uploaded matrices but I'm too lazy to do it for this one so who am I to judge?
  10. Scored one! I was refreshing every minute up until noon and speeded my way through checkout cause I knew they wouldn't last long. Made sure to setup and account and shipping the night before, only spent a few seconds in queue but it was stressful. They are my partner's favorite band so we are pretty excited to have got one. Been wanting a copy for well over a decade myself now, got into them after IKS and it was the only other album they had so got very familiar with both.
  11. As long as they don't go crazy with the fog machine again lol. I saw them on the final tour and it was brutal between that and the volume, easily the loudest show I've ever seen I'd probably have tinnitus now had I not worn plugs. I still have the setlist stuffed in my Nothing split record, they were touring behind it and grabbed it as a memento
  12. If I could piss away another $30 I'd order one off discogs and compare. My comparison was done on sub optimal speakers, had some garbage technics speakers from the 80s at the time, I think the Dynaudios would probably give me a more accurate opinion now.
  13. probably pressed at Jacksonville look for an () in the runouts, #4 means 4th set of lacquers so would not be an original
  14. I more than likely was not in the first 200, I ordered a little under a half hour after it went up when I got the email at work. I also thought I was buying the tshirt bundle $45 now seems a little steep. Oh well Muta is awesome, listened to the link they sent over in emails. Now if only I could find an affordable copy of Around or the June 7" so I can finish my collection. I guess I need pipe dreams redux but IIRC I preferred the mix on the Tee Pee pressing and got rid of the Redux but my gear has changed so my opinion might as well.
  15. Cheapskate record company they cut costs wherever the could and used pretty terrible quality vinyl as well. I'm sure the B-side wasn't worn so they were trying to get the most out of the stampers and that specific plant just used the old A side and new B side stampers since it's what they pulled to do the pressing. Likely had old jackets sitting around
  16. I use AAA renter's insurance and I'm covered up to $25k in a fire or whatever if I want more than that I can pay for additional coverage but even if discogs says the median is more than double that I doubt I'd get more liquadating unless I sold every last record online and even then fees are going to eat up a portion and would take years
  17. Yes! Used to own a couple 7" and sold them to someone on this board when I was hard up. Looking forward to this one
  18. I would seek out the 2014 pressings cut by Kevin Gray, it was right before Epitaph bought out Jade Tree. Epitaph did not reuse these cuts unfortunately for the black and clear reissues, and while far from audiophile recordings these are the best the first 3 albums ever sounded to my ears.
  19. Scott Hull does great work you should be pleased, can't comment on the other 2 plants but gotta groove presses good records. There is some misinformation given to you GZ can cut from lacquer but I would not recommend cutting a lacquerer locally and shipping it to Europe you generally want the lacquer put to metal plating as quickly as possible
  20. Sigh was hoping for a Sagarmatha reissue it's the only LP missing from my collection
  21. Crossing my fingers for the lottery, thanks for the heads up was in my promotions tab of gmail. I might have missed my chance. I would really love to get one, they are my favorite band and I have a pretty sizable collection but will probably spend the rest of my life trying to get even 1 of each release
  22. Wow the JD test was "only" $800 last night was actually trying to find a copy for less than $100 last night and stumbled upon that while spinning Axe To Fall, I thought it was crazy the Blue 1st pressing was spinning was up to $70+ that I bought at half priced books a couple years ago for $8.99. Surely we are due up for a redux or anniversary repress soon enough. Can't believe it hasn't seen a pressing in over 5 years
