Out of stock now. Still not hard to find, though.

When I was a kid, I only bought a CD because it HAD a PA on it. That’s how you knew it was going to be good. That’s why I loved blink when I was 12.

Mine is also still sitting in GA. I expected to see it in May since I pledged, that’s probably going to be what happens. No big deal!

I wholeheartedly agree. But seeing Stories and Alibis on red (/450) still available in their merchnow store gives me a “snowball’s chance in hell” kind of feeling for this one.

This band is pillaging the colour spectrum more than blink did with Nine. Not as much as California, though. COME ON BOYS!

I casually looked this up on discogs and eBay this morning and just about shat my pants. It’s still available at my local store for like 25 bucks. What the fuck is with this imaginary sense of rarity?

Just got my shipping notice! ELPEE for me!

@famousburro is selling a black copy of The Fire, but he has it listed on eBay for $500, soooo... duke it out I guess

Sold!

Rarewaves on eBay. I got Billy Talent III for about $23 with free shipping, and if stock doesn’t move quickly they slash prices. I got OLP’s Naveed for $13. Both MOV releases.

Sold!

And - I just did a little sleuthing - tug’s last activity occurred on the SAME DAY tuggerball’s account was created. Coincidence...? I think NOT!

I can’t figure out how to embed images anymore, but: https://imgur.com/a/zc1yuMj That’s over $51 CAD. I declare myself the winner of the price-gouge-victim wars.

Calm down, tuggerball. People getting sick and dying is a little more of a concern than a new USED record getting sent out on time.

I spent this winter going back and filling in the gaps of my Alk3 collection. I re-listened to everything and can honestly say that these guys can do no wrong. I can also report that my bank account is now empty. I might not buy this 7” cause it’ll probably cost me $20 or something stupid, but I will buy it digitally for $3 to crank to 11 in my apartment while practicing social distancing!

Aww man, I was just aiming for light-hearted fun. I see the abuse you get on these boards and I’m not about that. I truly appreciate your efforts - I’ve scored a lot of good records thanks to you. The fact you haven’t stopped trying speaks volumes!

Guess I don’t have what it takes 😔

This has been up for pre-order on SRC’s site for like a week. Where the hell have you been, dude?!

Anyone know what this is then? https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.ca%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F114081185608 I’m genuinely confused.

Actual question - does this album come with a digital download that’s any good? I remember Dead Reflection had shitty 160kbps mp3s...

I’m really having trouble with this album. I think I expected a Silverstein-flavoured Interrobang (cause that album fucken SLAPS) but it just isn’t even remotely as satisfying. Too much filler, which is a first for these guys. A couple copies of the purple smoke variant showed up at my local store, they’re not individually numbered. Just the hype sticker on the front “limited to 850.”

You own it, you like it, then keep it. Or sell it for $30 to cover the cost of the new press.

We should all give up hope of SRC repressing anything, ever again. It’s over.

So from what I’ve gathered, there will be 3 variants - champagne VIP edition, a tour variant, and the online splatter variant. Can’t find anything on whether all the bonus material will be available digitally or included with the album download. Hopefully so.
