  1. There is certainly a bit of a bottleneck in the process when it comes to plating, but I assure you that the problem is still at the plant in terms of production. For instance, you can get tests for a release in a few weeks, but then it still takes 6+ months to get the finished product. It is the same plates that they had to use for the tests, so the delay happens at the plant. Also, lack of communication/customer service, etc. The plant has you by the balls, so they don't care to make you happy.
  2. EVERYTHING. I TOUCH. FALLS TO PIECES! Gonna thrash my entire room apart when I spin that fucker at maximum volume. So stoked.
  3. Thanks for the kind words! There has been quite a bit of VC love lately, and I appreciate that you guys keep me going to the post office every day. :-)
  4. Logic shmogic No one can properly refute this because what everyone is actually trying to say is: "I'm upset because it won't sound EXACTLY like RoC. The band members evolved and I didn't."
  5. I posted this and then someone somewhere bought a copy. Lol - if that's all it takes! ;-) I'm down to about 5-6 copies on black before it is OOP for anyone on the fence.
  6. Just bumping this for the weekend crowd! This album should appeal to a lot of the board members. The band is finishing up the mixing process right now and then we will move it into production!
  7. Help me sell out of these splits and I'll look into other TAAS represses! I still have about 100 copies to go! ;-)
  8. For best results, email me at least 3 times a day. The more emails, the better. It's about consistently bothering someone, not developing a rapport via support.
  9. Sure thing, friend. I look forward to all of your posts in the test press threads boasting about how you scored them by randomly soliciting someone from a label having never talked to them before. Cheers!
  10. I assure you that - while it may not have been difficult or time consuming - Erin hated having to even delete those emails. If a company doesn't offer to sell something, then it's generally not for sale! You wouldn't email the VP of Operations of fucking Lowes because you wanted to buy a rake that wasn't on the website because that is 100% absurd. I am not intending to shit on anyone because even Juan reached out (and I <3 Juan immensely), but like someone else said: if 5 people posted it, 20 people emailed her. I am also an anal retentive bastard who keeps his inbox completely empty/organized and between work, label and personal emails I field an insane amount of messages each day, so the thought of 20 useless ones bums me out.
  11. Hell yeah Majority Rule! All of Emergency Numbers is killer. Now I'm on a wicked screamo kick. Up next: Usurp Synapse, The Assistant, and possibly some This Ship Will Sink
  12. I'm late to the "favorite screamo band" talk, but no one said Neil Perry and I needed to make sure that any newbs who are reading this also check them out. Also Spirit Of Versailles and You & I
  13. Pressing plants don't actually tell you WHY they're fucking you. They just say "LOLOLOLOL you already paid us at least 75% of the pressing costs, so just wait it out." We only sort of knew about the Beatles messing everything up, I doubt someone emailed Deathwish to specifically say so. That being said, it's just not cool for labels to do preorders anymore. Those days are gone and there needs to be a better model about gauging consumer response, ordering appropriate quantities and then - in turn - getting the item out in a timely manner. THAT being said, I don't have any solutions here. Just whining. Ha!
  14. I'm like super into this thread now that "cum dumpster" has been issued as an insult.
  15. For what it is worth, I move about every 12 months and I have two of the 5x5 expedits which are both at 100% max capacity as well as about 6-7 other expedits of various sizes. I've taken mine apart and put them back together about 6 times and they are just fine. Not wobbly, not even a little concerning. If you're careful, it's a non-issue.
  16. ^ yeah, what Juan said! Thanks guys! We are a diverse label, for sure, but each release has something truly fun and unique in regards to the packaging, so it's a little adventure with each record we press. Also, all of our digital properties are 100% free, so go wild.
  17. Seam splits happen man. If the records play fine, there is no cause for an exchange.
  18. I would gladly press both s/t and O:S, but DDW didn't do especially well, sadly. Maybe if I could somehow get away with only doing like 100 of each...but that's still a stretch. Regardless - incredible band and every release was perfect in its own special way.
  19. Also, make sure to steal a digital copy. I mean, you NEED the physical pressing too, but I get that you might want to sample the goods first. ;-) https://mindovermatterrecords.bandcamp.com
