  1. So hype on this dark-mode. Can we just rename the thread and gush about how nice it is? Happy 2023!
  2. Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh shit!!!!!!!!!! I hope none of these sold out during the early-ordering window. Got my alerts set and HYPE AF to get my hands on these new tunes!
  3. Pretty short and not 100% winners, but overall enjoy the EP and think they clearly still have that special sauce if they wanted to do a full length. Also, the variant photo above doesn't do the smoke justice. Crazy good looking in person. Not my copy but this shows it closer to reality IMO.
  4. Ill be controversial here. After *actually* going and listening to all of their discography again.... Lead Sails is their best album. Solid from front to back with crazy earworm hooks and even killer breakdowns. When it came out it was a big letdown for me, as a huge Curse/Suicide era fan. But in retrospect it holds up way beter. Lead Sails Deathgrip Curse Congregation Suicide .... and yeah that new stuff, lets ignore that.
  5. So... weird time to have this thread show up, but what the hell. TLDR is that due to some life changes, I recently had to downsize my belongings and my space considerably. Used to have twice the record storage space, but what can you do. 💩 Here is what I was able to keep, one chonky Kallax that is full to the point of being mildly unusable. The two boxes I pulled out are all items that are either duplicates (aka wont get spun much) or are for-sale items. Speakers are across the room, so not pictured. (P.S. yall have some awesome setups, cool to see!)
  6. Finally got my copy in.... DANG this thing sounds good. A few pops here and there but otherwise almost zero on the noise floor. I think the sort of 'dirty grimy' master on a lot of the tracks really makes the clean quiet moments stand out that much more. Yeah anyways, liking the album more and more with time.
  7. FWIW, looked into this a few years ago and short story is read the fine print if you have a renters insurance policy. The way many work is your '$100k' in total coverage or whatever is actually split out into buckets by type of property, each of which have per-bucket maximum payouts regardless if your overall policy amount. When I looked into actually covering the full value of my collection (median) it was going to be expensive AF. Like 8% of the total value of.the collection annually. So I'm kinda just going with what I get via renters. But it's certainly far from full coverage.
  8. I got like two sentences in and was like 'nah im good'. But I wasn't even aware they had brought Tillian back on-board. Honestly didn't follow or bother to ingest like any of the details with this whole scandal. But even just musically I am kind of over DGD at this point. Not to mention this nonsense. Only thing that would probably get me excited to listen to new material would be if they brought Kurt back, or hell even Jonny tbh but we all know that's never happening.
  9. At this point, I have learned (many time the hard way) if you want something, just start checking any potentially relevant merch stores 15m before its supposed to go live. Got my silver copy at 10 till the hour with no issues. (wipes sweat off forehead)
  10. Holla VC fam far and wide. **Update, the show got cancelled on saturday, bummer! So as a result, no insider info from me, and no chance to grab any merch. Sorry yall! Was going to update this sooner but was off chasing pop-up shows and the like instead I will be at "WWWYF" in Las Vegas this weekend, and it seems inevitable that there will be some either exclusive or elusive vinyl to be had. I figured I (and anyone else attending) can drop info in here regarding what is for sale, and *attempt* to get things for folks who can't attend. List of 'hot' merch, Ill keep this updated. Saosin - Translating the Name EP [Silver x/1000 ?] (Tour / Live Exclusive) Saosin - Translating the Name EP [Blue x/1000 ?] (Tour / Live Exclusive) ... ... Speaking of attending, my buddy had to drop off the trip, and it made me realize it could be a fun opportunity to meet some folks IRL. So if you are going shoot me a DM! I will be in Vegas the entire weekend but am attending the show on Saturday.
  11. Yeah I have to say, I think this was up there in my top 5 list of "longest time waited for something to show up after ordering" But, both Pink Lemonade & Pennance arrived and are fantastic! I also grabbed a copy of the Temple repress for a friend, and I think that new one with the dark cover is the best version of that LP. Rad.
  12. Yeah underwhelming album, not a lot I want to keep going back to.
  13. Still just looking for identity crisis lamo. Bunch of really great looking variants though, cool to see this album getting so much love.
  14. So to those folks with low impulse control who went and bought one of these TOCS combos.... Ill buy your NFT off you for the meme..... $3? IDK. DM me.
  15. I am being lazy on getting stuff out to photograph, but I am a few LP's away from a complete Veil Of Maya collection. In the meantime, here is my full VC for their album Matriarch. First Pressing (2015) Gold [x/????] Translucent Purple [x/500] Second Pressing (2022) Neon Violet in Electric Blue w/ Black & Blue Splatter [x/250] Clear w/ Black/Neon Magenta/Yellow Splatter [x/750] Purple and Blue Side A/B w/ Black Splatter [x/2,500]
  16. A bunch of really cool new pressings up at NESI if your trying to burn some $. Check out their page yourself, but a few highlights for me Vildjharta - Masttaden and Mastaaden Under Vatten Both have Glow In The Dark covers and art books. https://www.nesimedia.com/product-page/vildhjarta-måsstaden-splatter-vinyl-ltd-200 https://www.nesimedia.com/product-page/vildhjarta-måsstaden-under-vatten-splatter-vinyl-ltd-200 Restock on Rings of Saturn Ulla Ulta https://www.nesimedia.com/product-page/rings-of-saturn-ultu-ulla-black-vinyl-with-purple-blue-splatter And not sure it qualifies as extreme, but I dug this album.. Ibraki - Rashoman https://www.nesimedia.com/product-page/ibaraki-rashoman-ltd-100
  17. Crazy to see how big of a release this is getting. Heard a bunch of their other tracks from the Riot Fest set, excited for the full album to drop. I think these songs are pretty 'live/performance' oriented, in the writing. Hope so anyways, cuz Im seeing them on the current tour lol
  18. Late to respond here, but thanks for your sluething! Would love a mr bungle shirt haha. But honestly that slayer one is hitting the spot The more black metal vibes the better really. Going for maximum stylistic dissonance
  19. I assume you mean the recent like maroon-ish one? I am looking to get my hands on the pink first pressing, if you have that lets talk!
  20. Figure this has become a ETID catch all thread, so here ya go. Finally a US repress of New Junk! https://shop.brooklynvegan.com/products/every-time-i-die-new-junk-aesthetic-lp-limited-edition-only-500-made-milky-clear-w-gold-splatter-vinyl Not their best album, but still might be my favorite.
  21. B-Sides from Palms were better than anything on Palms.
  22. People are so funny to me with what they expect from music/bands. (myself included at times, of course) So like feel what you want to feel of course, IDGAF! But for me I appreciate that they are always going for a new sounds, and am stoked to see already a big variety on the album. If you peep the tracklisting, they even have a song with Chino Moreno as a ft. Super stoked for this to come out, I think its going to be epic. And, I think eventually your going to see bands like Polyphia doing collabs/features with like *big* name pop/hip-hop artists.
  23. Yeah still developing my feelings on this album. I really loved "The Act" and its probably their best album IMO. This by comparison feels so safe and expected. Like they just said 'lets go back to writing hits' rather than pushing the envelope. All fun/solid songs but few standouts.... Favorite track is Noise.
