fvckin elite, coolest ov the cool, fvcking posers need to be crvcified, teach me yovr ways ov svperiority, o god ov non-posers.

It isn't news to any regulars in this thread that colored-vinyl Profound Lore releases have been poached by resellers for a while now.  Nothing about the music PISSGRAVE makes would be suited with some cheesy Cannibal Corpse-esque artwork. 

Great use of your fourth or fifth post in the thread, though - a real contributor you've been.

I'm just glad the black vinyl only and artwork are keeping people away, I was trying to go at least the month of January without buying/preordering anything.

Personally, I wish more bands went to such lengths to keep posers away.

now that 2018 has ended, here are my top ten LP's for the year

1. Infernal Coil - Within A World Forgotten

2. Sleep - The Sciences

3. UN - Sentiment

4. Fórn - Rites of Despair

5. Tomb Mold - Manor of Infinite Forms

6. SUMAC - Love in Shadow

7. Innumerable Forms - Punishment in Flesh

8. Panopticon - The Scars of Man... 1 & 2

9. Sulphurous - Dolorous Death Knell

10. Faustcoven - In the Shadow of Doom

Really tough to only pick ten.

Received mine around late summer. I heard a rumor the band took legal action against the label for not shipping a good majority of these out. Can’t speak on the legitimacy of this rumor, don’t remember where I read it. 

This is news to me and I tried to keep up with the saga even after I received my copy long ago.

Alright, I think it's time to start sharing best-of or 2018 favorites to get this thread back to life, as December looks to be a pretty quiet month, release wise.  

My favorite splits from 2018:
Gorephilia / Undergang

Anatomia / Cryptic Brood

Mortuous / Scolex

Vastum / Spectral Voice

Crawl / Leviathan

Sad news from the Gorephilia camp, vocalist Henri Kuula took his life on Monday

Will definitely be picking up a hazy green copy from my local store today. Don't need it but have wanted a holo cover for some time, and what an awesome looking slab of wax!

Yay! Someone else knows Un!!!

 

I still want their debut on vinyl...but it's not a thing.

 

I have the original pressing of that one.

I intended to ask the band about a possible vinyl release of 'The Tomb..." when I saw them a few weeks back but forgot.  I could see Translation Loss getting rights to press it in the future based on the response to 'Sentiment.'

Since you mentioned them, here is a photo of my tour press of 'Sentiment'

Any labels running black friday deals?

 

relapse had one that was not super impressive compared to years past.

Translation Loss has a tiered discount based on how much you spend ($50-10%/$75-15%/$100-20%) so I went ahead and finally ordered MotA 'Quietly' with the UN 'Sentiment' repress.

Finally got my Evoken and splatter regret is real.

you’re not feeling the kiwi splatter? I will say that the black/gold/green merge is my preference of the two in hand. at least the tunes are great, right?

Sulphurous 'Dolorous Death Knell' finally arrived from the factory back to Night Shroud.  I couldn't wait for Dark Descent to get this one, already ordered

Just a heads up, 20BuckSpin has a sale going on. If you haven't bought everything they've put out this year, now is a good time to get caught up. 

 

https://www.20buckspin.com

And even if you have bought all 20BS releases (like me), plenty of distro goodies available on sale too!

New Tomb Mold 2 song demo out on Bandcamp today, cassettes were sold on their recent tour and 20 Buck Spin had leftovers but already sold out it looks like.

https://tombmold.bandcamp.com/album/cerulean-salvation

Finally got shipping info for my Evoken LP's today - I'm guessing because I ordered two versions they got all the single-orders out first. 

Just noticed that the resellers already have three of the variants on Discogs to flip - a green splatter for $90, a green/black/gold merge for $70, and a clear for $57 (even though clear hasn't even sold out from the label yet).  The clueless flipping is growing tiresome. 

I saw UN on Saturday night as their new album Sentiment is quickly ascending to the top of my best-of 2018 list.  I snagged the awesome tour pressing of the album as I missed preorder for the olive green pressing.  Judging by the mock-up photos of the second press and how much I'm enjoying the album currently, I'm probably going to have to order the repress as well

Interesting. For some reason I had never listened to Mgla and now that I am listening, I completely agree with you. Now I gotta find their records in the States.

most distros will stock them in and out, 20BS has a few left from a recent restock. good stuff!

Grab bags are back up at Relapse - https://store.relapse.com/item/44549

I went w/ a 10 pack.  It's just under $50 after shipping.  

as much music Relapse puts out that I'm interested in, I'd say they put out an equal amount (if not more) music that I couldn't care less for.  If this were 20 Buck Spin / Profound Lore / Dark Descent, we'd be talking.  Not Relapse.

^ The folks in this thread would probably be the only ones contributing, so probably no need for a new thread anyway.

I love no-promo artists that drop new stuff whenever it's ready with no announcement.  Clandestine Blaze just released their latest LP this week, already available physically as well - Profound Lore said they would have copies soon.

Evidently, when I posted this I had already ordered it earlier in the month. I was baffled when I got my second copy. I have a problem...

 you are killing me, hahaha.  I keep a hand-written list of all my online orders/preorders at work, update daily as I get shipping notifications/deliveries/etc.  Sounds like you might need something of your own.

Anyone else besides @lexicondevil gotten their EVOKEN shipping notification yet?  Still waiting here.  Just ordered the longsleeve though as well, one of the best Profound Lore has done this year

https://profoundlorerecords.merchtable.com/apparel/evoken-longsleeve-shirt

EVOKEN - Hypnagogia is streaming in full today.  My copies haven't shipped yet and I'm way too excited for this one, so I'm about to dive in.

Profound Lore should have longsleeves up on MerchTable tomorrow morning.

Going to see Uada tonight, stoked.

 

Every time I try to get into these guys, I just turn 'Groza' or 'Exercises in Futility' on instead.   There is music made within the confines of a genre's traditions, and then there are bands that completely ape another band, and Uada are apes down to their black face-covering leotards.

Speaking of band shirts, seems like a good time/place to ask if anyone use tshirtslayer.com?  Here's my profile

I forgot I followed you on IG until I saw this post!  I'm happy with the black/red w/ yellow splat but this photo made me want this variant instead.  Great album too, still digesting it's intricacies

20 Buck Spin just got some MGLA stuff in, I inquired about KSM stuff on Instagram but didn't get a reply.  Can't wait for the new album to release on vinyl.
