Got the Highlighter Yellow with Rainbow Splatter, video is super sick!

Grabbed the iodine variant! Great to see the label back ❤️

Missed splatter but oh well! Got a merge

Their first album got so much listening time from me, can't wait for another and will definitely be ordering this when available.

Def in for a Karate discography here!

Well after going back to sleep after failing to get one the first time (was 6am here in NZ when they went up), got a clear in the end

Well, tried - cbf on the black

Mine won't load at all, lame

They added the shipping destination for me, so managed to grab it, along with some other stuff! Pretty hyped.

I want the nineironspitfire record pretty bad, but their shop doesn't have New Zealand as a shipling option and they haven't replied to my email :s

I've got an ultrasonic cleaner that can do 5 records at a time, I use it with a solution of water, isopropyl alcohol and ilford ilfotol - has been working well since I got it!

Grabbed the exclusive from BrooklynVegan - super pumped as had missed out on the lower run standard variants

Currently I am rather unhappy with Evil Greed. Had a few bad experiences with them now, first I got a warped record from them which I wasn't too annoyed with when they said they couldn't do anything.

Gave them another go, and ordered the END record that came out last year (pre-ordered their exclusive version). Unfortunately got caught up in COVID shipping so couldn't be sent for over six months. Because of this I asked them if I could combine with another pre-order (Svalbard Evil Greed exclusive version) Said it would be fine, and because of continued restrictions I did this again with the new Portrayal of Guilt (Evil Greed exclusive version).

Get to around shipping time finally (been happy to wait as I thought would get my records!), and they didn't even bother to hold the records I had ordered and paid for for me, so I'm getting told about a year and over six months from paying they don't have them. Feelsbad

YESSS wanted these for ageeees

Looks like some people are having a similar issue with this as some did with the Zao - Where Blood & Fire with the locked groove on track 2 and 3, and some skipping. Mine is almost here, but I hope this isn't the case. Anyone else have theirs and have this issue?

Man that sucks, really glad I didn't order this now as I'm still pretty slighted about the Zao issue and there not being any solution at all. Good luck on your copy!

Holy shit just got my copy of the remix and god damn it sounds amazing imo. Blown away.

Had no idea this was still available new, snagged a copy - hype.

I always ask for records to be shipped outside sleeves, and that has almost completely eliminated it for me (even though I'm all the way in New Zealand). 

I figure if I always ask, and they don't do it and damage happens, that's on them and I did everything I could to avoid it - and I feel justified in asking for a new cover.

Great list of albums. Over the years I've learned there aren't many other classic screamo/emo fans on these boards. You're better off just lurking on Discogs until a good price comes up, because the sellers market here for this music is pretty much nonexistent. Good luck!

Thanks for the advice! I've been trying around a bunch of places cause shipping is a killer to over here - have managed to sort something for a bunch of them so that's cool, but will be keeping an eye out for the rest

Hey! I'm looking for copies of any of these records in VG+/VG+ condition and above (looking for nice playing copies, no seam splits etc). I live in New Zealand, so would have to be willing to ship here, and that means it would be real great to get multiple from the same person if possible, but will consider anything

Also the list below are a bunch of the ones I'm looking for that are expensive enough to make it worth the postage - if you have other similar style stuff I will likely be interested if I don't have it, and could make the postage more worth it if I grabbed anything else too!

I ordered a copy of Misery Signals Ultraviolet from Basick Records/Supplies in the UK (I live in Canada). Record shipped at the beginning of August and still hasn't arrived. Others who live in my area who ordered the same got theirs by the end of August. Tried 4 times to get in touch with them since September just asking for tracking info and was never responded to. Had to start a PayPal dispute, which I have never had to do. Pretty bummed tbh.

They're useless, I got mine, it was faulty, never responded to anything and had to do a paypal dispute.

Just gonna come in here and shill my band Happy Valley - we are a post hardcore/screamo band from Wellington, New Zealand and just released our second EP Triptych yesterday - you can listen to it here https://happyvalleywgtn.bandcamp.com/

Sadly I have just gotten my copies and I have the locked groove issue

This looks sick, and I've been wanting a copy for a while - hyped!

Just got my deluxe edition, so sick! Funnily the record sleeve seem to be glued in upside down, but ain't bothering me!
