Anyone listen to the new Tallah album? It's pretty solid!

Not judging, but I cannot imagine spending that much on tickets for ANYONE. I should clarify, no one currently living...

Exactly. You could spend literally  half as much and go to a 2-3 day festival and spend the other half to travel and accommodate there and have, like, more bang for your buck.

People massively stressing out to  ridiculously overpay (for a show that's part of a massive tour and not a one of a kind sort of experience) to be surrounded by tens-of-thousands of rich white teenagers in a football stadium for 3 hours is super weird to me, but if you got it like that and your spouse won't leave you over it and you won't massively regret your decision immediately, more power to you. Honestly not judging, just baffled by this whole Taylor breaking Ticketmaster thing.

2 VIP floor seats. $1735 after fees.

I can't imagine telling anyone I know in real life I spent almost $2k on two Taylor Swift tickets.

I have the sudden hankering to buy some garnier fructis shampoo. 

WOOO WOOOOO

I haven't been able to keep up with new music this year at all. What are the best metal releases of this year?

I’m not being a baby. Someone responded to me and made a generalization that didn’t apply to me, so I gave my opinion on it.

You're literally complaining that everyone who wants a copy will be able to get one. If you actually want it to own it and not sell it for triple the price on Discogs, why do you care how many copies get pressed?

So lame. Withholding the pressing quantity when every other release you do has the numbers. There’s no way the label said “oh by the way, you can’t let anyone know how many records you are pressing”… as collectors, that’s information you’re looking for when purchasing, and is part of the intake hype/excitement - at least for me.

 

His motivation isn’t to collect records, just collect money.

There will be multiple pressings of the same variants. That's why there's no numbers. If they announced 2500 copies or whatever, and then repressed them, people would be pissed that they announced 2500.

Sent you a PM

Absolutely both! Wasn't talking shit. Just justifying one by mentioning another.

Hell yeah, in for this. Limp Bizkit isn’t even a guilty pleasure. Just pure pleasure.

Yeah, with all the people who ape old emo/pop punk stuff on here, it would be kind of silly to call this a guilty pleasure. There is def a market for this reissue in 2022. I have been on a huge nostalgia kick this year and Limp Bizkit def holds up for me.

Is it stupid that I'm fucking excited to try and get that pinwheel variant? Need some Limp Bizkit in my collection.

Really, guys? I just spent $500+ on tickets and now you put this up on the same day?

I'm glad I already saw Blink with Tom in 2002 and 2009. I can't imagine paying the price these tickets are going for to see this shit in 2023.

Just got a shipping notice from Amazon on .5 The Gray Chapter! Hopefully AHIG comes out soon.

My .5 from Bullmoose is scheduled for delivery today!

AHIG looks like August 26 release now, based on two of my pre-orders.

My Vol. 3 is four stops away. Bout to eat, y'all.

Mine still says "Arriving June 27 - June 28", but I was charged this morning and now it says shipped with an Amazon tracking number. Sooo, I may get it tomorrow?

So, there were rumors that Vol. 3 and All Hope Is Gone were cancelled. My Amazon Vol. 3 is still on track for June 28 shipping, but my Bullmoose All Hope Is Gone is delayed to December 31, 2025. This being put up is a good sign, no?

They have never charged me for a preorder. They charge when it ships. 

I think if you pay with a credit card, they put a placeholder charge on your account. Otherwise, debit or PayPal, they charge straightaway.

Pre-ordered Follow the Leader, because I don't already have it.

Does Walmart charge right away for preorders?

Yes.

I've had a super tough time catching up on movies this year, buuuttt...

I watched The Northman last night. Killer stuff. I'd put it right up there with the other 2 Eggers movies, which are a couple of my favorites of all time.

Not horror, but I watched Everything Everywhere All At Once too, and holy shit!! What a fucking movie.

I saw X last weekend and loved it.

Planning to watch The Innocents and You Won't Be Alone over the next couple days.

Also reeealllly want to see Men asap. Then I'll be caught up on my most anticipated movies of the year.

CM Punk vs Hangman in a week

Owen Hart Tournament coming to a close

Sasha and Naomi walked out of WWE

Wardlow might be getting "War Pigs" as theme music

Lots of other stuff going on!

All Hope Is Gone is probably my least favorite Slipknot album, but I'm all in at this point. Let's go!

So Amazon just delivered Iowa to my porch aaaaaand from the delivery photo they shipped the record in a plastic bag.

Fantastic.

Mine is sitting in front of my door and from the delivery photo it looks like it's in a mailer. Maybe they shipped yours in a mailer IN a plastic bag. Fingers crossed.

Iowa being delivered tomorrow from Amazon. Cancelled my stalled Bullmoose order.

Did anyone order Iowa or Vol. 3 through Bullmoose? Both orders had an expected delivery date a couple days ago. Now they both say "Order should ship around" with no date and "This product is only available at store locations". And both item pages have been completely removed from the site.
