Genuinely curious - when you make a combative comment like this, what are you hoping to achieve? Are you genuinely interested in engaging in discussion or do you just enjoy being rude behind an anonymous username and feeling superior?

Let me know if the more limited one sounds better 🤙

Articulate 

TOCS has little to zero screamo influence.  
 

DTGL sounds nothing like Norma Jean. Norma Jean were a shitty Botch ripoff at this point in their career. 
 

That 2012 pressing of TOCS is god awful. 
 

Aaaaand did you get your box? IS it not great sounding? Or are you just listening to internet hearsay?

Damn, I already ordered the splatter. Now I've got that familiar struggle between the variant I like more and the one that's more limited. Think I'm going to stick with the splatter as I also really like the webstore exclusive cover art.

This is a stupid struggle.

This is interesting! I actually like TOCS a lot more then DLGL. I think its a very unique blend of "screamo"/hardcore and pop music. DLGL to me just sounded like they were trying to sound like norma jean. Its a solid album for sure, but it just doesnt slap me with originality like TOCS does. But I can also see how people would feel the opposite.

Also its a bummer that this pressing is not great sounding, the  2012 pressing of TOCS is one of my best sounding records, it really sounds fantastic imo. 

How can someone have so many wrong opinions.

Got both so I'm pretty happy. Had to do two separate orders though due to crashing but I'll take that.

Cooooool bro, everyone needed two copies of an absurdly limited repress that sold out immediately. Good job bruh.

Aaaand you can go sit on your fist. 
 

stoked to own this on vinyl on any color. awesome that the guy went to the trouble of making this happen.

Kinda disappointed with that yellow boring colorway. Orange marbled would be more suitable.

Oh shut up

This album is a blueprint for how to make interesting post rock in 2021. 
 

sets the bar for all these other bitches, not unlike Nothing and Hum did with shoegaze last year.

I'm guessing you have to actually sell a record to be considered a record store.  Don't think McDonald's has ever sold a record (they have all been free with purchase).

Don’t worry, you can still flip this regardless of what you call McDonald’s. 

Which is funny, cause aren’t they an offshoot of a steel company?

edit: nah, I’m dumb and just got the joke. Cause. It’s metal. 

Huh. Didn’t expect them to go back to their roots, but these singles are cool.

last album bored the shit out of me, but I know lots of people dug it.

Still waiting, only showing label created.  It is coming from PA so maybe weather related.  I sent them an email on 2/8 and have to receive a response.  Fingers crossed.

 

Changing topic, can anyone comment on the quality of pressings nesimedia.com puts out?  Looking to pick up a few things that end up being quite expensive with the exchange rate and shipping and just want to make sure I'm not wasting my money.

Nesimedia makes good shit. Bought a Sigh record from them a few years ago.

I asked them if they could remove poster from my order and they answered: "Due to the unique hand-made nature of this vinyl, all sales are final. ". Wtf

What did you expect when it’s literally on the damn sale page?

God this album is so good. 

Hopping on here to say if anyone scores an extra I’ll buy it

well, this record rips.

You must be listening to something else cause this is hot garbage 

Damn I literally just got my vinyl of im wald this week cause the weather was right. 
 

side note: this guy is wild
 

can’t wait to listen to this once in the middle of spring and then shelve it till winter 

Y’all acting like the only option is to pay another $10 on iTunes and throw it on your iPod Nano 🙄

I did this exact dance when I bought the first ETR repress ages ago, so I sold it. 
Now I have this ordered. Nostalgia is a fuckin’ disease. 

It does hold up - it’s a technical masterpiece IMO. But it’s going to be hard to play it with my two kids under 4 around...

Fuck them kids and their eardrums
