  1. I didn't see this posted nor did I see if there was a catch-all thread for Rollin Records releases. But they are releasing AFI's major label debut "Sing The Sorrow" bootleg today at 12PST. It will be on red vinyl. 

    The cost is $39.99. Kind of steep especially since I have been reading iffy things about their sound quality. 

    They look to be capitalising on the new AFI album "Bodies" dropping today.

  2. I got my die-cut splatter and it is a very nice presentation but I went back and checked for a DL code and there is none.

    Which is really annoying because all of the past albums the DL codes were available on your invoice on the site when you paid. Now they are selling the code for $9. 

    I just don't understand because AFI gave a code for Twisted Tongues/Escape From LA when you bought the 7" soooo?

    (And I know I am in the minority but I would have really liked a CD of this album (many other fans wanted it too).

    This is slightly off topic but I have Shenmue III sitting on my shelf unplayed and I'm wondering if it's worth the time investment. I've only played the first one years ago when it was originally released for Dreamcast. Does anyone recommend going back and playing through I and II or should I just watch a review of the story up until this point and jump in straight to III? I'm wondering if the gameplay is dated at this point.

    I would say it's good you played the original years ago so you could experience the ambiance and mood when it first came out. So, I would say definitely pick up the I + II collection to help get into the saga. The sequel is a very fun game and refines the Shenmue experience. And Sega did a great job porting the collection over with the game save carryover from Shenmue to Shenmue 2 intact. North American Shenmue fans were denied that functionality because the idiot Peter Moore made a deal for Shenmue II to appear exclusively on the Xbox in the US. Plus the collection is usually pretty cheap. Both games are also easy Platinums. And with Shenmue III, I thourohly loved the game. Yu Suzuki managed to keep the same feel and spirit of Shenmue in the third all of these years later. 

  4. Brandon Boyd's debut solo album "The Wild Trapeze" is getting the vinyl treatment for the first time for its 10-year Anniversary through Qrates.

     

    This album is being pressed on "heavy black vinyl" and was initially limited to 500 copies but due to overwhelming sales, they added more to the shop so I guess this will now be /1000.

     

    The album is available for $20 with $6 shipping.

  5. Motion City Soundtrack have put up copies of their latest tour-only 7" that was a VIP Bundle exclusive from their "Don't Call It A Comeback" Tour. 

     

    The 7" is $20 but has a steep $8 shipping cost, so with tax it is nearly a $30 7".  But proceeds are going for a good cause - Save Our Stages.

    Limited Run has Sonic Adventure 1 & 2 up for preorder 

     

    Im thinking of off loading some of my vgm records soon. Just a few I dont care for as much.

    I don't understand this release set. Is this just a repressing of the past Sonic Adventure 1 & 2 OST's from Brave Wave? I see Limited Run is partnering with Brave Wave so it must be so. I already have the colored versions of the first press though. I genuinely love these games (the Dreamcast ones). 

  7. Early this morning Blaqk Audio released the first 5 tracks - the "Side A" - of their new album Beneath The Black Palms. 

    Tracklist:

    Side A:

    1. Consort

    2. Zipper Don't Work

    3. 1948

    4. A Distant Light

    5. Hiss

    Side B:

    6. Burnt Babies Fear the Fire

    7. Fish Bite

    8. Bird Sister

    9. I'm Comin' Over

    10. Tired Eyes

    11. It's Not Going Well

     

    Today they put up a pre-order for the full length. 

    There appears to be 2 variants both /250 tri-color & pink, but the pink is locked behind an expensive bundle. The (signed) pink is available separately but it still is expensive @ $50

    --$25

    No way they put all 500 up and they've sold 413...of the demos version of this album...right?

    I don't think this is what happens. Kris puts a set amount available directly from him on his Bandcamp (which, I assume, he gets more of a monetary cut from) and you can find more copies directly available from Cleopatra Records on eBay. 

     

    Edit: Cleopatra Records is the company that bought the Kung Fu Records namesake and sells all new Kung Fu releases now.

    When Air For Free was released, we who pre-ordered got the faulty and the correct versions. Did the correct versions that replaced the faulty ones also have the gatefold? Because I can only find it for my faulty but not my correct one, wondering if I misplaced my gatefold or just never got one.

    I pre-orderd Air For Free as well and received the replacement discs and a print out explanation as well I think, and they did not send a jacket but I did ask for a new jacket so I could have both sleeved. I think there was a nominal fee for the jacket. I can't remember though.
