PO NOW: Tides of Man- Every Nothing
Mattallurgist replied to pmlevine's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Does anyone know if there's anywhere selling this EU-side? That £45-odd price shipped is way too much for me but I really like this album after a few listens. -
PO NOW: Foxing - Nearer My God
Mattallurgist replied to Juturna90's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Gameshark is up across the interwebs, @drewberinger was not fucking around in his description: Gone from being excited about this to being genuinely aggrieved that I have to wait until next Friday. -
DEAFHEAVEN - Ordinary Corrupt Human Love
Mattallurgist replied to Kanellos's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I haven't had one yet. -

So close yet so far. Thanks! -

Mine just came - the lyrics are on the sleeve containing the LP inside. The insert? I never know what to call it, but that thing. -
Self Defense Family-Infinite Releases Thread

So, do the three of us start a support group now, or...? -
According to Mike yesterday the album pre-order might be live today, get y'all cards at the ready! (also according to some other tweets he posted over the weekend, the album might be out there somewhere...but I'm not too inclined to go searching for it myself.)

PO: NOW! - Caspian - Dust and Disquiet (9/25/15)
Mattallurgist replied to JRHews's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
It would be morally wrong for me to not help you keep that collection going. Hit me up if you need me! I'm seeing them on Sunday night. -

I should be able to help you out, drop me a PM! -
I caved and made this #3 for me. The Constant Rotation pressing is done by a guy who runs a store here in Birmingham, he posted a pic of one of his on FB earlier. I'll try and dig it out for this thread later, but it might have to be #4! You're a bad influence! Are there any UK people still waiting on their Stolen Body copies? I got a shipping notification (well, label creation notification) a week or so ago but nothing yet. :/

I couldn't help but laugh at the cartoon gator on the 'overload' page. Brand synergy for ya. I'm not all the way through but early impressions are super strong. The synths sound incredible, all the acoustic bits...everything just sounds wonderful. It's amazing that this is the fourth album they've done this year and they're still treading crazy new ground.

PO - Brand New - Science Fiction

I hope that something like this could happen, Daisy is so good and that's mostly Vin's writing right? -
PO - Brand New - Science Fiction
Mattallurgist replied to marc32137's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I think this is pretty much exactly where I stand on it. I don't want to label Jesse as a totally broken piece of trash who can never redeem himself because everyone should have that opportunity if they take the right steps. But this situation is just so slimy and gross and the 'apology' really didn't make anything better, so it's so hard to know what it would take to reach that point...I have no desire to listen to them right now, because whenever I think about it all I can think about is the people who have ended up victimised. Maybe down the line things will resolve and I'll personally feel like I can listen to it all again, but at the moment as more comes out I'm feeling more skeptical I'll reach that point. Think I'm gonna cancel my deluxe preorder and maybe down the line if things turn around pick a standard copy up. Can't help but feel kinda self-absorbed pondering all this when people are hurting though... -
Thrice - The Alchemy Index [Reissue]
Mattallurgist replied to ethereal's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Yeah, same here - after the Brand New limited edition and the Cursive reissues I'm praying another must-have doesn't come along before I get the gift-getting out of the way. I'm hoping Banquet will have the hookup so I can at least avoid the inevitable customs horrorshow. -
PO - Brand New - Science Fiction
Mattallurgist replied to marc32137's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Science Fiction II is actually hidden INSIDE the packaging of one copy of the limited edition. The only way for people to find it is to rip their own copies apart. Obviously as it's a paper bag it's not going to take much, but still. -
I guess I find it pretty funny that it's reached that point. It's a shame, more than anything else. I still want to love Always Foreign but after reading through the lyrics and stuff I just began to find them really off-putting. Obviously I don't know what happened between them, but some of the songs on that record seem so obviously about Nicole in such a vindictive way...I don't wanna say that you can't write songs about stuff like this, obviously you can, but I just didn't like it here. I felt like the 'drama' overtook the actual music a little, and that's where it starts to just seem absurd. It's a band, not a Tumblr comment thread. I remember the lineup shuffling around a tonne pre-Harmlessness and it always felt exciting, like, what direction will it go? How can they add to the sound they already have? I guess it's telling that someone leaves now and you could be forgiven for assuming some shit had gone down.

Yeah, of course! I was kinda joking about the drama, but totally did not do a very good job of conveying that. Obviously I hope everything's okay first and foremost!
