It doesn't even include a vinyl copy of the full album...

https://sonnyandthesunsets.bandcamp.com/album/new-day-with-new-possibilities Happy to hear they're (he's) back with another one.

I just don't know how they didn't use their logo in the van halen format for the cover? On one hand it's way too obvious but it's a million times better than what they went with. I don't think they realize how important cover art is. This fan made art would make me more interested in checking out the album. credit to reddit user capsvlecorps

Pumped to see concerto on here!

The worst is seeing retail marking up prices straight from the jump. Not even secondary market. I was in Salzer's in Ventura, CA over the weekend and they have RTJ4 for $50. Still in print straight from the distributor. It's a $35 record but it's getting a considerable markup before it even hit's the secondary market. I've seen the same with sealed RSD releases. Super fucked.

Oh stop being so silly. I read this board every day. I love record collecting. Me calling a record boring is only as serious as you take it. This thread could use a little balance from the fomo heavy posts. You can make fun of me when I miss out on the RTJ2 TTL that’s about to come out.

That’s such a long way to something we all know.

Because I enjoy posting on this board more than I enjoy her music. I need something to say.

So much hype for such boring music

As someone who isn't buying this either way, that cover is really working against him on selling any of these.

Waiting is one of the all time greats

Yep. Insomniac was peak. Nimrod maybe at the same level, even the b-sides. Warning was a great start for a mature Green Day as they were starting families. Then Billie walked into a hot topic during a lightning storm and a fracture in the space time continuum sent us to an alternate reality.

Correct. So much that I thought it was maybe a part of the song. It was so prominent. Listened to the digital version, no distortion. Checked the needle as it was playing expecting a hair or something but it was clean. Let the record complete. Wiped it down and put it away. Took it out the next time and wiped it down and it was perfect no distortion at all.

Mine was the same on the first spin but after a wipe, it’s perfect.

Played my clear again and it sounded flawless. On first listen, there was some heavy static in one song but not any more. I gave it a little wipe and it’s all good.

Side B, Track 2 on my clear copy has a ton of static toward the end. I thought there was a hair or something stuck in the needle. Nope. Going to try a good cleaning. I thought it may have been part of the song but it's not on the digital release. Other than that, it sounds great.

Making a little web based aggregator of all my favorite vinyl resources. https://other.supply Does an endpoint or api exist for VC?

Anyone else getting some major skipping on the live set?

Got my orange copy today. I really wish they would have included the excellent b-sides from this era.

I almost bought this for the art but as always, the music is so bland... to me.

Digital is out now too. It's lovely.

Stumbled upon this record and happily paid full price on their bandcamp but right now it's $9 $14 on amazon. It's a sweet deal. If you're fan of Alvvays and waiting for their next record, I think you'd dig it. Or just a fan of good tunes. You're either going to like it, hate it, or think it's ok. https://amzn.to/3cJBNcL EDIT: Price went up. Still a good album but maybe not post worthy at this point so happy to let this fade away or get deleted.

Glad my negative outlook on this didn't pan out!

If you didn't take everything so seriously, it wouldn't be a problem.

STFU
