Bunch of whiners in this thread. Turn off the tv. Buy one copy of the album. Listen to it between ETID albums. Life is good.

I bought it. The price in CAD is super reasonable. $11 shipping is 1/3 of what I’m used to paying these days. 

I take back what I said, this album is an absolute killer. The title track may be the weakest song but it’s still decent. No filler on this record whatsoever.

…and all of the noobs calling records vinylz and buying them just to hang on the wall, has soured me on the whole experience…

Ppsssshhhh, speak for yourself. I’ve been doin’ that shit since 2008.

I moved to a new house over the holidays and had to relocate over 500 records and 800 CDs. Made me want to quit buying physical media altogether.

Wow they’re actually releasing a Dark Mode variant.

Can anyone with a copy of the previous  MMP or FAOT presses comment on the quality/mastering? My CDs are long gone and whatever Spotify is hosting doesn't sound great. 

MMP sounds okay. Certainly not remastered for vinyl or anything. I don’t have FAOT but I’m sure that 34 minutes of CD sourced audio squeezed onto a 10” sounds like shit. The CDs definitely sound the best - fuck Spotify for their compressed shenanigans. 

LOL no. 

Whoa, that sentence was a wild ride. 
 

In for the EPs. So so so glad they’re on 12”. I hope they sound half decent.

…separate the art from the artist…

Why can’t people do this. It’s like removing all references to Jesse Lacey from Brand New - that would be stupid. They’re never getting any more of my money, but I won’t stop listening to their music and enjoying it for its art. 

That feels like half a song. They couldn’t write a bridge? Really? 
Maria is better. 

Ooh, I get to use this again!

Revolver (white w/blue splatter) has shipped. 

This record has more BCR flavour than any of their post-Untitled material, and I am fucking here for it. Got the indie exclusive and it’s pristine. 

I want more songs like Minds Like Minefields. Not this mid tempo drivel. The EP was modern Alk3 at their best.

It took seven years for the album.  I think I could get a couple days to update my profile

You’ve got this silly way of keeping me on the edge of my seat.

Forgive me, I'm blind and slow, where did it say this has been remastered/new stampers?

Edit: I’m not friends with these people 😐

New master, new cut, bound to be at least better than SRC.

I’m in progress of digging through my emails and adding all my record purchases over the last decade to my pre-order spreadsheet. Then I’ll have some cold hard stats on how prices used to be.

My spreadsheet has purchase price as a column from 2008 onwards. 
I once thought $25 was too expensive. 
Then I thought $35 was too expensive. 
Now I’m happy if I can get under $50.

Wake me up when they’re 7 bucks 

Please, for the love of all that is holy, step away from the internet.

Pics! Just snagged a blue myself

 

That blue looks familiar!

Going for a green myself, I don’t have any of that colour.
