i think Sharp Objects won this thread...

You should've seen the ppd mailorder prices of the 1990s. A wonka-like world of wonder and joy. And get this....They put FREE THINGS into your order and would replace damaged items.

 

I use 2011 as about the point where from my humble perspective, Things Got Out Of Hand (TM). Major labels flooding RSD with high ticket garbage releases, the advent of the $40 pre-order, etc...

 

Sucks for everybody. 

i did. and stuff came super fast w/o seam splits.

Apparently theres a red pressing already done so I'd hold out for that

US or EU? 

the US black and white copies (esp the white) sounded like shit (super noisy) but the EU white I picked up sounds great.

Anyone know what is up with this release? It is available through Amazon in black but not through Epitaph/KingsRoad, which is weird. I have been holding out for Epitaph to do a proper release, possibly on color, but I don't want to miss out if there were just some black ones that got made and sent out and that will be it. Any idea if these will be available through Epitaph anytime?

i thought it was weird there was never a KingsRoad order page for this and kinda surprised they didn't do more colors. The black one is in all the record stores now. I don't think it's limited at all, just the normal black press.

An improvement from the CD, a little more detailed in sound. Decent pressing, some light surface noise here and there after a wet cleaning but not really worth mentioning. The pressing is decent, the white has some black streaks in it, so they didn't clean the machine after the last record was pressed on that machine which probably accounts for the light crackle. Worth picking up for sticker price, but it's not a drastic enough improvement to pay current ebay prices, so I'd say hold out for a black copy if you didn't get lucky.

man, my copy has TONS of noisy ass surface noise even after cleaning on the vacuum machine. TWICE. i'm really hoping the black vinyl sounds a lot better. super bummed on my copy. been waiting for this on vinyl since the CD came out. 

if you thought 2011 was great, you should've been around in 2002...you could find loads of great finds in the stores and they were practically giving them away pushing the vinyl off into corners of the store...

it's too out of control to even keep a list anymore...

I saw them open for Clutch and they were pretty good live. the only album i really love is Apoch...High Country I still have sealed sitting here waiting for it to grow on me. That was another reason I wasn't going to jump on acoustic versions of it. 

they put the other 250 up today if anyone cares...

this was hard pass for me.

don't be shocked when they end up pressing more of it too at some point...

i'm prob jumping off this bandwagon. that new song didn't do much for me and i never even got around to cracking the seal on Rented World. it's still sitting there. i love 'i don't want to be an asshole anymore' and it's ok for about the first half for me, but the second half doesn't do it for me. 

but, i was a poser jumping on the 'wagon late anyway. i didn't like the early stuff at all and chamberlain waits is my favorite.

Well it was clearly stated that you were ordering black.  I don't think they new what was going to do with them or If they did Haze didn't have the artwork done.  Outside of pressing the colored variant they have had nothing to do with it.

 

STL ben no worries, I usually don't mind helping out people but I am not dropping the kind of cash  it would take to help people with these and I am already going to be embarrassed by how much I give Walsby for the stuff I want.

actually at the time the PO initially went up it was not stated that they were black. they changed it the next day.

Still can't believe they used these highly-limited and difficult to acquire color variants as the basis for the reissue promo video. Misleading as fuck. Anyway I don't dig that custom artwork on Houdini and Stoner Witch, so it's all good. 

yea that was weak as shit. i ordered from the link in that video then cancelled. and i ended up getting black off SSD w/ 20% code/free shipping. 

all of them were noisy as fuck United pressings too. was pretty disappointing.

i have the monkeywrench lp but not looking to get rid of it so...bump for you anyway...

i have the monkeywrench lp but not looking to get rid of it so...bump for you anyway...

this is so pervasive i totally lost track

This was pressed on blue?

eh...nope. green.

i have this on EDIT: translucent green and translucent pink as well as a sealed Rented World (black/white split). I'd trade them for stuff I want. 

I'm looking for Queers - Love Songs for the Retarded (Lookout)

Common Rider - Last Wave Rockers

Mad Caddies - Quality Softcore

if you have those...

Ah bummer. Thanks anyway. The online sales is really new thing I guess and it's def not optimized. I don't know what their rules are for shipping international. Or what USPS rules are for shipping food. You could buy some to donate to the local food bank or military. Hah.

My daughter (She's 8 now) is selling Girl Scout Cookies for the first time. You can't play them on your turntable, but they make great listening snacks. Shipping is rough, but if anyone doesn't have any local Girl Scouts and loves the cookies...here ya go

it would be too much to hope for that the vinyl threw on the 3 hidden bonus tracks from the CD, i got a couple CDs but they all had the same song. I never got any w/ the other 2.

Everything Sucks.  Descendents.  (imo, the best "reunion" record of all time)

well...except that was mostly just the next ALL record w/ re-recorded Milo vox. ALL was peaking w/ Breaking Things/Pummel/Descendalls-Sux/Mass Nerder...

i would prob get the Live album prob too
