  1. Finally got mine today from FOB store. Looks great next to Ocean Avenue and No Pads, No Helmets... Just Balls.
  2. This is really cool. Original format, open preorder, decent price. I always wondered what it would be like to hold a Minor Threat 7” in my hands.
  3. This is a contender for the stupidest thing I have ever read. Are they really going to design an entire variant scheme, drop schedule and sneaky sales practice around the possibility that one person is going to spend 3 seconds of his personal time to post a for sale ad online, for an imaginary price that no one is even going to buy? If they really cared about that shit, they’d have pressed the entire run on “boring black.” Pressing nine variants of 300 each is probably making their so-called concern more of a reality. They’re trying to sucker fans into buying more than one copy directly from them as opposed to buying any secondhand. No one is going to fall victim to The Flipper on this record. It’s not fucking Ocean Avenue. Which reminds me, my yellow OA is for sale - $18,000. Because it feels so right.
  4. Hahahaha these guys are fucking greasy. They have the potential to play this game on every album drop - especially WATT and ACBTLD, seeing as those have been hard to get for a while now.
  5. They’re different. The indie exclusive is much more plentiful.
  6. That really sucks.. my shipping method is “International with tracking” and I got that same status update from Chicago yesterday at 3pm. It’s already left and on it’s next leg as of this morning at 8. Things must be pretty fucked in Nashville right now.
  7. ☝🏻 This guy likes Back To The Shack. I do too. 🤟🏻
  8. “Estimated to ship in early 2022 (Subject to change without notice)” and costs $70. I want everyone here to scream, “fuck you Tom we fucken hate you, you’re gonna burn in hell and die a horrible firey death cause we think you’re a stupid piece of shit!” I don’t really care though, I’ve got a black and a splatter and I’m good with that.
  9. Here’s my take on your question. Era 1 of the band is Albums 1 and 2. They’re unlistenable and always have been. Era 2 is Albums 3 and 4. They were really great screamo albums in their day, and carry a lot of influential weight. I grew out of them by about 2006. Era 3 is Albums 5-7. These are the albums I enjoyed the most, and still listen to deep into my 30’s. Although DTGL was their peak and they get progressively worse. The first rule of Album 8 is we don’t talk about Album 8.
  10. Changing the title and the OP. Brutally delicious.
  11. OP should have finished their pitch with “GET CHUCKED!”
  12. Why not just get Chuck Norris to squeeze the solid bronze into shape by hand? You’ve already named it after him.
  13. Holy sweet zombie Jesus. Thank you SO MUCH for this link. I thought this was a myth. Thank you.
  14. This is correct. In 2019, Craft issued the remastered TAYF on iridescent green and black at the same time. They also facilitated the reissues of the Warner Bros. records all on black. The only album left out was WYWTB for some reason. I have Victory pressings of the first two albums from the mid 2010s - neither of them sound bad. They’re just fine. TAYF needed a remaster (or remix) to get rid of that high pitched squeal on the vocal track, but the Craft pressing didn’t even achieve that, so it’s pointless. WYWTB doesn’t need a full remaster, maybe just a couple tweaks for the vinyl format would be nice. Finally, I don’t know why people need represses of any of these albums. There’s tens of thousands of them out there, and they were $15 up until this year. It’s like as soon as something goes out of print, people freak out and it demands a repress. No wonder plants are backed up until 2022.
  15. Same. 18 year old me is so pleased I finally get to own a copy of this record. When I got into it, the first press was long gone, so I gave up looking for a while. Then the hot topic presses came and went in a flash when I wasn’t looking and were instantly $250. Then came the copies in those fucking box sets weighed down with so much dog shit that I would never want. Now, finally, I can retire this search. Gonna spend the 200 bucks I saved on a nice bottle of Lagavulin and a couple packs of Captain Blacks.
