The Perfect Cast didn't do much for me but I snagged a ticket/record package. Funny thing is I liked Jake's song on TPC the best, but I like Bren's of the new two better. Excited for the album, excited for the show since I haven't seen them in almost two years and I've never seen Joyce Manor.

Just got my copy today, sounds great. Hmu if you want a fourth press "Pump Fake" or ninth press FYEB on the cheap.

The "rock" songs on here are okay but the ones that are just vocals and drum machine sound really out of place and aren't good on their own merit. Three of those types of songs that don't go anywhere for two minutes plus the second to last song that's just one guitar and vocals run through a fake lo-fi filter leaves seven songs that would have made for a passable mini-LP. I like "Thorn in the Side" a lot, but the album takes a steep decline in the second half. I feel like Somos was shooting for the "mature pop punk album" but I don't think they've built up a strong enough fan base to stick with them for something like that.

Some really good records in that GH selection but I can't afford to get anything after my Music Direct order. Ones of note: David Byrne & St. Vincent for $11, new Sleater-Kinney for a little under $11, the most recent two Deerhoof albums (Breakup Song and La Isla Bonita) for $7 each, Fucked Up's "David Comes to Life" for a little under $10.

Stoked for that Knife Hits record

Such a sick shirt. Kinda glad the tour isn't coming to Philly so I don't drop another $25 to see the same set. My copy of the record from GoHastings arrived today and it sounds spectacular.

Just a heads up, that Music Direct code works for preorders but preorders aren't eligible for free shipping. Only thing I've found besides clearance items that the code doesn't work for is the new Porches album, which is annoying.

Never really been into Say Anything but listening to this on a whim and I like it. Songwriting and production clears up a lot after that first song.

New song is sick, definitely gonna pick it up whenever I see either of those bands next.

I only got Maruta, Grin and Bear It/MDFL, Scab Addict/Castration Rite, Mellow Harsher, and Gowl because I already have a bunch of those records. Water damaged or not, one record I cannot recommend enough is the Grin and Bear It EP. Blurs the lines between fast hardcore and powerviolence blah blah blah.

I love Snowing but not enough to go to Pittsburgh and sit through a hundred bands I don't care about.

I'm not saying that as an ATDI snob or anything, it's just that I haven't really liked anything Omar and Cedric have done together in the past ten-ish years so I'm not expecting a new ATDI album to change that.

I'm having a real hard time imagining a 2016 ATDI album being anything more than merely "listenable"

Happy that Phantom Limb is getting repressed but I'll stick with my OG copy unless someone wants to give me good money for it. And if we're playing the numbers game, Phantom Limb >>> everything else Pig Destroyer's done

This thread just reminds me of all the times I passed on a record only for it to quickly skyrocket in price. I remember seeing "Demon Days" at my local shop for $15.99 and thinking it was cool that a new album was out on vinyl but I didn't buy it because I already spent that much on a CD copy and I was 12 years old. Also remember seeing "Exmilitary" up for sale but not wanting to pay $20 plus shipping for it. Womp womp. Even at the height of my record collecting mania I couldn't bring myself to pay $50 for one album, and now that I've become a bit disillusioned by the record game I can't even imagine spending that much on something as silly as a slab of wax. I did pay $40 for a signed copy of Andrew W.K.'s "I Get Wet" before the repress, and I can't find the receipt for it but the +HIRS+ "Madonna" 3" cost me upwards of $30 for about 90 seconds of music.

I'm in an apartment building with three units and USPS has a key to get in and drop packages off. I can understand the ipod (assuming it was labeled in a way that made it seem valuable) but I can't imagine why either of my neighbors would care about a package with two shitty powerviolence records in it.

Bought an ipod that USPS said was delivered yesterday but I didn't get anything. This reminded me I never got the order I placed from No Idea's winter sale, which apparently was delivered on the 19th. I'm about ready to only use priority mail (read: never order anything anymore).

Everyone should get that Greek Faves album. Big ol dummies decided to stop being a band for no good reason right after it came out.

Might as well stop selling internationally on Discogs now. As is I'll get messages from people asking how much it'll cost to ship a record, I'll tell them the absurd number (last one was $27 for a double lp), then they don't respond.

Euro screamo is in general the best screamo imo. Too many American bands spend more time falling over each other than actually writing cohesive songs and playing them properly. Also, Daitro and Raein in particular are really good at creating dynamic shifts that aren't just "here's the loud part then there's the part where we turn our distortion pedals off then we get loud again."

BM confirmed this is an upcoming release

The shipping date is for March 4th and it's on Silent, not 604. Looks like a repress, I'll email Bullmoose about it.
