I'd be down for this on cassette! 

interestingly their website was down for a few hours a couple days ago.  they may have been updated it or testing something to have ready to publish for saturday.

sounds like they are kind of teasing it... maybe... maybe.  i think on 6/25, the exact 20 year anniversary, something will be announced.

its been confirm its been delayed to at least 12/9...

only a few weeks shy of the new year so if it gets delayed again then it will push it into next year and be a 21st year edition.  lol.

this is the weirdest thing ive ever heard of, but you do you man

i think i read that like 75% of vinyl collectors don't play them.  i know many people who collect without a turntable.  as for me, i'd like to open them and give them a inaugural spin but i rarely have the time or place to play them.  99% of me listening to music is mp3 in my car.

Ah, thank you for the update. I ordered this thru my local record store. They were able to find it in their distro system easily. I’ll have to give them a heads up next time I’m down there that I won’t expect to see it til December. 

edit: delay confirmed

vinyl release pushed up 2 months... does not make sense.  these days they are only delayed by months.

prob the only one in the entire batch but how does this get passed QC?

heartwork turns 2 years old today and it just happens to be the day these deluxe editions ship.  crazy cool.

What’s his logic behind the increase in price? If he were truly a hero he wouldn’t Jack up the price. 

probably to cover the fees.  but its a good point still.  if someone who doesnt care about it buys it, then sell it for whatever they can get rid of it for.  but if only fans bought it then it would take an offer that would have to blow them away to sell it.

Sound logic to me.

i guess in a way... its like if someone buys it to flip, yes they make a little but at the same time if only fans bought it then they wouldnt sell it.  so if your a fan and want something you can probably get a better price from someone who doesnt want it and you'd probably have to pay way more for a fellow fan to give it up.

I’ve already got my burnt orange in hand:

 

 

It also cures covid symptoms, allegedly. 
Thanks, Bert!

the length you went through to make this joke... walking to the store, buying an orange,  cooking it until it burns, taking a pic of it, and posting it here.

some guy admitted to me he is just buying and flipping and i said people dont like that and he said he was a hero because hes buying records and selling them to fans that want them, that couldnt get them, and now because of him the fans who missed out can now buy them.

Looks like some are available to purchase right now 

yes but not many left.

not a planned rsd relase but with only 1000 its as limited as one.  and just happens to be shipping out today on RSD!!!!!!! https://heartwork.theused.net/collections/all-products-1/products/heartwork-vinyl-4

its funny since it was such a weak rsd this year and then this kinda saves it.  

these are now shipping out.  fans are reporting that they got their shipping emails yesterday and today so be on the look out for yours too.

Test Press (out of 17) *for band, friends & family only, please don't ask about these* 

^^ why did they even put that?  do people always ask about a test press.  im not even sure why anyone cares about test presses.

yellow w. green splatter

or

blue + cream swirl w. red + green splatter

according to the RSD essentials website, this has been delayed from july to december.  maybe thats why the used have not announced it yet.  no other site has updated the release date but this is prob the most accurate site.  hmm.

I wonder why it's not shipping until September. 

thats the only variant that did not have a number made announced so they probably ordering another batch but with the vinyl factory situation it wont be ready until then.

That tug account is definitely a long time member and not the original. As you can see they're getting bored just using The Used to troll haha. But I appreciate their input trying to start shit with the giant man babies with me.

 

Yall know they just use a CD for bootlegs right? You can get an Ænima CD for like $5 shipped and it'll sound way better than your shitty vinyl setup with a real copy.

not starting shit, just totally agreeing.  a bootleg could be cool and if it is good and not pricey then so what?  i have a mona lisa poster hanging above my toliet and its an exact scan copy of the OG.  it looks the exact same so its like so what if its a bootleg and not the OG, it cost me half the price and looks the exact same.

Anyone else feel like bootleg entitlement is a direct result of the streaming generation? Like, bootlegs used to be mostly cool live shows and demos of stuff you wouldn't feel bad about cutting the artist out of... at a time where streaming and the internet wasn't even a thing so they were even cooler. But what's the point of owning something on vinyl when there's 3 other cheaper and better sounding options than a bootleg these days? Seems really fucking stupid to me and more in line with collecting pokemon than listening to music. 

yes good view.  but vinyl has become somewhat of a collector thing... i know multiple people who collect but don't have a turntable.  and if someone wants a complete collection, i guess a bootleg fills the space if it is a good bootleg until they can get the real deal.

Not if you are trying to stretch it out over as many discs as possible to sell 1 album for 200 bucks

200 bucks less than it would cost you to make it yourself though.  am i right?  i am not wrong.  lol.
