Charles Barkley

This album sounds like a mixup of the following:
Lonesome Crowded West
Fantastic Planet
Yankee Foxtrot Hotel

I got a CD shaped envelope in the mail and almost sprinted for the house until I realized it was filled with Rick & Morty stickers.
 
I set them on fire and doused the flame with my tears.  

I forgot that sarcasm doesn't translate well on the internet.

I'm saying. A guy sits down to watch the GoT leak, and bam. Hopefully it'll come back. I don't mind if it is just a color, but if it has extra shit that would be cool.

Just got my copy in. Comparing it to the original press for fun. Artwork/layout are almost completely identical, minus the legalese and logos. The jacket and sleeves on the original press are noticeably higher contrast/saturation than the new pressing, curious if that was intentional or just a printing difference. The sleeves on the OP also had one top shorter than the other for record removal, whereas the new sleeves have even tops. When it comes to the records themselves, the new 180g pressing is obviously thicker. Labels do not suffer the contrast discrepancy.
 
As far as the sound, I've only had a chance to listen to the first disc, but wow. This is how this record was meant to sound. The range is there, the detail is there, it's quiet, the atrocious distortion is all but gone. I say "all but gone" because to my ears the latter half of The Scale did not sound up to par with the beginning of Pioneer, but it's still totally listenable. The rest of the experience so far has been stellar. The bass on Pioneer is thunderous. Heinrich Maneuver comes in sounding punchy as hell. Guitars sound accurate and drums tend to leap out at you. Playing this record for someone will get you laid.

Nah, good for them. They wanted their twitter followers to get first crack at it. Sadly places like here and Reddit are swarming with lurking flippers that snatch up anything that's posted. Obviously those people can be on social media too, but at least followers are typically staying loyal to that vendor.

My wife is a teacher and this summer has been rough for me. The struggle is real.

AMEN. Thankfully school started back up this week for mine. She still beats me home from work everyday though...

Same. I hope it comes tomorrow and not today because if I get one more record in the mail this week my wife is going murder me. 

Never watched more than the first 2 episodes but I can't stop now.

Still waiting on DK & Metroid

Fuck yeah! I can stop refreshing the page 

Edit... You can easily find it on reddit. I figured i shouldn't post a link if no one else had.

And the first Britney Spears album! Rough day on the wallet, amirite?

If you send Jesse $1 he'll upgrade your order by one "very"

This was really hard to read the first time and I don't know why I put myself through reading it again, four posts later.  But I think we're all in this thread and following this band in 2017 because we partially hate ourselves.

So many wives picking up copies for their husbands...

"If I do this one last favour can we have kids now?"

Yeah, while the picture disc is cool and all I would almost rather have a signed normal ass black LP

Just realised I've been listening to the 'wrong' version of Ready to Die for all these years

this is 100% an official original 2009 UK pressing. It sounds good... I mean as good as your average effort 2000s pressing. Its no MOFI but its also no CD transfer.

I was hoping "Christmas Will Break Your Heart" would show up on this new album...
 
Oh well, the hunt continues. 

Links for the album still live at exystence

Pretty sure they're sold out.

What even is time?  Fuck, I'm getting old.
