"of course as soon as these arrive..." 😪

Not directly related, but figured why not throw it here. An absolutely *SICK* new single from these fine fellas I feel like it has a blend of the best parts (pacing and vocal production) from The Act with some of the more catchy chorusy reminiscent of older albums. Also still nothing shipped to me from dead-serious.

So now that were already off topic. Aaron's voice, Yes, its different now. Not worse IMO but noticeably different. I am pretty sure he smokes so that could be a factor overtime, as well as just normal body/throat change stuff. More than anything it seems to be like the way he 'accents' words, its a little less pronounced? Also for the UO nerds, check this one out. (music starts at min 1:40) You can literally compare some of Aarons singing from 2021 and 2002 hah

I would pay like, triple whatever it costs. Just so tragic to do first time on vinyl and only if you just so happened to have had tix to a show.... And then miss all the sets to go run around and do a scavenger hunt. ':/

Got my Deluxe finally! Really fun/cool packaging on this one. Its almost like the art was really thought out and made just for the vinyl release, and flattened down for CD/Digital. Seeing as the inner sleeves become part of the cover though, I wish they were not the like 'printer paper thin' type. Also some minor warping on the second disc... But oh well! Looks and sounds great, very pleased.

Man if they do finally press I am Hollywood and make it furnace exclusive that will be such a bummer! Been waiting ages to own that on vinyl, near the top of my most wanted list. 😕

I ordered mine from MerchNow and it has not shipped yet. No word from them about any sort of delay either, and others have received copies of the same variant. 😪 (Edit) Talked w/ Merchnow support. They basically said they got like one or two boxes shipped to them early, but are waiting on the majority of the vinyl still. Expect it by end of the next month.

Yo, I fux with that right there more than almost anything on the last LP

Yeah nice to see a full length from them, honestly was getting tired of shilling out for 6 tracks on a 12" or whatever the last few releases have been. (Edit, was conflating their releases with 'If I Die First' in my head, my-bad) Do we think this is really 3x variants all at 1,000 each? Seems like a big pressing considering they are still an up and comer. I almost feel like its a typo or something hah (but prob. not) Confirmed accurate, thanks Ian

Yeah dude, I really wish economic forces weren't always the end all be all. Like I get why running a pre-order is obviously in the company's best interest, but it makes things like this an inevitability. My order had a variant they are still waiting on so I have yet to receive a single box in the mail from them six months later. 😕

This is a VERY good album

Looking at the page source... Tri Color has just under 1K remaining... Perhaps x/1,000 total? Or something in that area. The yellow shows "over9000!" so Im guessing its x/10,000

Updated above, retail confirmed at 6k. Not counting the solid blue that's 16,600 copies. 😳 Also, starting to see images of a few variants on the web. Maybe a bit underwhelmed with the galaxy, but the Heavy Splat and Blobs are lookin tight

My 'first pressing' copy from the TDWP store finally got a shipping label created. Got my third press from merchnow like, two weeks ago at this point? Dont really care when it shows up though, my 3rd press sounds great. Per usual regretting the decision to double dip but hey what can you do

I know, especially considering this has an empty (etched) b-side you will never see on these variant colors. I was really hoping they would put BOTH of their EP's on here, one per side. Now that would have been well worth the $$$

Say what you want about the bands more recent output, this right here is a metalcore classic. On vinyl for the first time since its debut.

Yo yo, myspace scene metal, its back yall. Ifidiefirst (If I Die First) has pressed their second EP, one variant still in stock. https://velocityrecords.com/collections/if-i-die-first-they-drew-blood Going in Reverse order here, but they have now released their first / debut EP on vinyl as well. PO NOW. https://velocityrecords.com/collections/if-i-die-first

Yeah! I enjoyed the video but Misha is a bit of a steamroller, as fun as he is I wish we heard more from Tosin and Tim. I could easily listen to a podcast with a bunch of those guys in a room though, talking at longer lengths about music and process. Great vid

Maybe jumping the gun a bit here, but looks like AAL is ramping up for a new album. Unless they are just droppin' a COVID single, but I guess we will know in time. Ill keep this updated if new info arrives.

I had the bad (good?) idea of snagging a Dead Throne splatter w/ my Z1 order and combo'ing on the shipping. But.... now the rest of my order is pressed and waiting for that Dead Throne... sigh. Also these are showing up online. ZII - "Strain" variant.

Same, gotta decide which version to get.... Unless @nelso330 is gana throw me a bone on a cheap copy 😁

The mockup color looks just like grape soda. And now I want some 😰

Oops, there is a EURO link! dropping it here and adding it to the top post www.vildhjartastore.com

After something like 30 years of teasers, PO's have arrived for Vildhjarta's new tunes "masstaden under vatten" Three? Four? Singles out now, all of them have been bangers. [USA / WORLDWIDE] https://www.indiemerchstore.com/collections/vildhjarta https://www.indiemerchstore.com/collections/vildhjarta/products/vildhjarta-masstaden-under-vatten-2x12 [EUROPE] https://www.vildhjartastore.com A bit disappointed in the vinyl offering, first time ever doing black vinyl, and no colored variants to speak of. Oh, and of course its $$$. They did allude on their IG to some perhaps extra variant that will be USA specific, but it was not clear. So I am going to just snag this for now, sucker that I am. Enjoy.
