Sorry guys, but they’ll never top Renacer and that’s that 💁🏻‍♂️ Don’t @ me.

It’s the original artwork, just includes an obi strip with the censored artwork on it. 
I also wonder if this will be the original track list on one LP or the remastered version on two LPs. I have both, the single LP being an unplayable boot, of course.

My dust cover always gets dusty. There is a thick layer of dust on it right now.  Does anyone have any tips or tricks to prevent this? I don't want to do any dusting and can't afford a solution that automatically removes dust particles from the air. Do they make dust cover covers? 

I have a cat who loves to walk all over my dust cover. So I placed a dish towel and small framed picture over it to keep her off. Now I realize I have accidentally invented a dust cover cover!

I always believed Matt chose that vocal style for the record almost intentionally, to better suit the somber and dark feelings the music and lyrics portray. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Everyone hoping for Good Mourning...wasn't it available until likeast year from the 20th anniversary pressing?

The 20th represses were plentiful, but it’s been at least a couple years since they were easy to find for cheap. I still can’t believe anyone here missed out on them, though.

Seriously though, screw Buddy on this one.

Finally coming around to my way of thinking, I see.. 😉

I never thought the CD sounded great in the first place tbh.

This. If the original recording sounded bad, any reproduction is going to sound bad. This album will never be an “audiophile experience.”

Maybe clean your room?

Ready for CD Collective.  Vinyl has become a pain in the ass. 

I’m so glad I kept all the CDs of which I’ve been spending the last 13 years collecting the vinyl versions! I’ll be way ahead of the game!

Also, once I checked out it gave me a popup to buy a digital copy of the album for a discounted price of $5... I laughed, then went and looked at the product page for the vinyl copy and it didn't say anything about a digital copy included. Plus I realized the store is run by Second City Prints, who just did Manchester Orchestra's latest record and screwed me out of a digital copy. So I went ahead and paid $5 more like a chump, but at least I know I won't have to pay $15 after the fact just for something that should have been included.

I wasn’t going to admit this here, but I had this same worry… so I bought the CD. 👴🏻

I got an email subject line "You made it official." but it doesn't appear to have a code anywhere in it, it just thanks me for subscribing?

Looks like this.

What coupon? It worked on pre-orders?

Yup, open the site and enter your info in the pop up offer. Emails a discount code to you immediately. 
 

Got an egg drop. A “test press” /75 is no test press, so I chose to keep my $75 from that one.

Watch them press Red on something ridiculous

Bird shit splatter.

That second pressing looks sick, but I doubt it will actually look like that in person...

I’m guessing SS will be black and LIEY will be red with smoke. 

In regards to Track 3: I’m in this song title and I don’t like it. 
 

Also, I’m going to fuck with this album just like I did with Erase Me. But I want to love it like I love Define and Lost. Fingers crossed on that one.

I've had packages arrive that looked similarly disheartening, but ended up with immaculate contents inside.  May the transit gods smile upon you in your time of doubt and weariness.

Thanks, Derek. The jackets were creased at one corner along the records’ edges, but the records themselves are fine. The shrink wrap protected them all from the water damage. I’m chalking this one up as a near miss. Fuck Fedex, though.

My KRM EU order just got marked as picked up by FedEx for arrival on the 15th. Can’t wait to see and hear these. 

…but it arrived early!

What's really wild is the listings all say these are being made to order. I highly doubt that.

These are 100% already pressed. They’re just gonna store them in a warehouse for ten years before shipping them to the address with which you bought a ticket. 
And the colours will be in the reverse order.

Shitposting aside, I'm loving the vociferous gall of, "Finally! W&T as it was meant to be heard!" and like twelve people in the world get to hear it

What, you didn’t download the Convectuoso mp3 from Limewire back in 2003 like the rest of us?

Glassjaw has out-Glassjawed Glassjaw!
How the hell can anyone support these knob gobblers?!

He said in a livestream a while back that a repress was in the works for that.

 

He also said that he was planning on repressing that EP.

I've been watching most of his stories/streams, podcasts, etc. I think he's finally on board with doing everything fans have been asking, but he's being smart about pacing it out so as to have continual interest in his band and a steady revenue stream, even if not touring.

I know he said those things, it’s been literally years since he expressed intent to repress the back catalog. I’m just sick and tired of him being a cock tease while peddling old copies of records signed by his wife and overpriced live streams just a few months before a physical tour happens. These things are making me lose interest in his band.

I should probably stop spamming this thread now 😬.

Maybe a new Bayonet album while he's at it.

Ohhh fuck yeah. You speak my language. Best thing he’s ever done
