I think I had seen Ikaruga mentioned here before... Also probably gonna start KH3 tonight!!

New U137 is coming in March. I'm pretty excited for this--I really liked "Dreamer on the Run".

Sorry for the bump, but did anyone else get a random shipment notification from BW? I hadn’t bought anything since this sale but got an email on Monday and there’s a package on the way...

Update on this. I had asked if they had any of the old Chris Z. zines on the note w/ my last order, back in August. They found some and hooked me up! Randomly sent me a couple of 'em w/ a note and an "I can be afraid of anything" balloon. So cool!!

I got like 6 emails from Kings Road Merch a few days ago saying a bunch of stuff I've ordered over the past year, and long since gotten, were "shipping". New Touche Amore, new Alkaline Trio, NOFX greatest hits, and a few more.  I just assumed they got hacked or something. I'll let you know if I get a bunch of packages in the mail and am looking for move some doubles lol. 

I got a couple from KRM too, but this is strange because there’s actually a mystery package coming...

So, it's going to be the same as what we already had. Glad I didn't bite on that. Ouch.

Just listened to the new track, and it's really good. I didn't find HW's part overdone at all. Much more subdued than I was anticipating based on comments above.

I'm so bad at Smash 

I'll be sure and not set an alarm for that one too.

yes! makes me feel better, ha. now i'm gonna lean into it and say it's my absolute least-favorite athletics track, for basically the reason you stated. really not a bad song, just pales in comparison

It never really bothered me because they were so Deep Elm emo. Howevah, I prefer the stripped down version from 'Stop Torturing Yourself'

I do too, I'm so psyched.  Did you get yours early because of that early sale on the Monday?

Also, I've been looking at tracking that 10" lathe down, but that's just piano and vocal arrangements of some of the WAIH? tunes right?

Yeah he got it out quick. It was halfway here before they actually went up for sale on Black Friday.

Yep, it's this: https://deepelmdigital.com/album/stop-torturing-yourself I love these tracks too. It sounds pretty good for a lathe, but does have that low frequency buzz sound if the volume is up too high--it's not noticeable except at the beginning/end of each side, when there isn't any music playing.

Sounds great, I love those tracks so much.

Of course I forgot and missed the expanded score. ISO.

Did order confirmations go out with these orders?

I got confirmation

Glad I forgot about this. Breezed in and got what I needed, no problems. It's not the label's fault, it's all the dingleberries who were loading up their carts to see how many were left. Happy Thanksgiving!

There was an issue where stuff was going out of stock every time an order went through. So while everyone was melting down, only 10 of each release were sold. Hopefully it doesn’t hurt sales in the long run. 

I think 500 is a bit overkill for these releases and a one-man label. Sad to see the midnight meltdown. Dan’s a good dude and shit happens. Glad he got it sorted. Also I’d expect these to ship pretty damn quickly—my order from the surprise pre-sale already shipped and will be here soon. 

Grabbed the 7”

https://www.bullmoose.com/p/28300096/hammock-universalis-2lp

they have the release date as january 4th

I didn't realize that 'Mysterium' was part 1 of 3. The first track from 'Universalis' sounds great. This is exactly the kind of music that I can't get enough of lately.

What do you guys think of the new Whale Fall album?  Not sure I've seen anybody mention it!

Stumbled upon Whale Fall on Youtube. I had never heard of them before 'Sondersongs' started playing after listening to the new Mogwai album.

I ended up listening to the whole album, and it was pretty good. Really liked the extra instrumentation. I came here to see if anyone else had heard of them, so it's funny that you had just mentioned them. Need to go back for another listen. 

Beat the final "hidden" boss in Octopath. Guess I'm done with it now.

Ah man, I echo KingTacoMunster. It's such a good album.  It might've been the 3rd CD I ever bought after Toxicity and Gorillaz Demon Days. Well, it's not bad to have $20 to spend on something else. 

 

I was actually just referring to batman not ordering S/T. Nabbed all 5 myself earlier. Thanks for looking out though.

I’ll check it out—I probably listened to it at some point back in the WinMX/Kazaa days. Mainly into the others for the nostalgia.

It took a good 5-10 minutes for me.

Also, no S/T???????? 

Too early for me. I was 14 when Toxicity came out.
