Ride the bullmoose, dude. They’re my favorite online retailer. Like Derek, if I’m not going for something specific, it’s a safe bet BM will be stocking the indie and black variants and get it to me on or before release day. They aren’t shy about shipping something out on a Tuesday or Wednesday that is released Friday.

Pro tip- don’t make the first thing you say some entitled shit about a band that gave regular updates on this and the related delays. pro tip 2- you know they pressed this in a standard single jacket, too, right? so all that design and effort that went into this package (unnecessary baggage, as you call it) isn’t mandatory. welcome to the site, be less of an ass

Got excited but that blanket is lame. So many cool things they could’ve done in line with the aesthetic for this album -

Jesus fuck this is worst, most try hard, quasi-intellectual bullshit I have read since... well, the Tool thread. anyone who’s interested in this album should save themselves the cringe and ignore that post, because it’s extremely off base and reads like a community college freshman who just discovered Burroughs. I saw them last weekend and they’re just as powerful and crushing as ever, dude must’ve gotten a bad batch of acid. At least it would explain the incoherent wall of text he posted as a “review.” how much “energy” do you want from a band who’s made a two and a half decade career out of slow, crawling, droning, monolithic riffs? guys I can be quirky and weird too and spell words wrong. Rabbat! See, I did it! No one go with this guy, no one embark on a journey, and definitely no one drink anything he gives you: I think this dude fucks stuffed animals. -

After one listen to hard to say. It’s heavy, but not as heavy as dear. Very very shoegazey and psychedelic. The only songs with a readily discernible form are Love and Shadow of Skull. I tentatively dig it more than dear for the sole fact that it seems way more varied. -
PO NOW: ⋈ THE ARMED "Only Love" ⋈
holyvacantsholyhell replied to throatruiner's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Reviving a dead thread solely to say: If this mini tour is coming near you, to get off your ass and GO. This was the single most chaotic and twirly thing I have ever seen. Every bone in my body hurts and it was worth every second of the drive from Baltimore to Philly. they have copies of untitled and only love on vinyl on the merch table, so this isn’t a completely useless bump... but yeah I just wanted to say GO SEE THIS BAND THEY ARE SAVING MUSIC. NO BACK PAIN ONLY LOVE ❤️ -

It’s good -
As I understand it’s a licensing thing. They don’t own it. Unless they re-record it from the ground up then it’s a new piece of “property” altogether they can control and distribute. my issue is the two awesome albums that breathed new life into a band I had stopped caring about, and how quickly all that forward momentum was abandoned to replicate their sound from 2005. The last album and the ep before were both such a downturn in quality from Thorns. And now re recording their first release ever? Like cmon, y’all were doing something exciting and you’re leaving that for what? Pop punk with some screams again?
