Weird that it's on Amazon, but I'm ordering anyways. -
Spanish Love Songs - No Joy (8/23)
MacDonals replied to HeartSwells's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Holy crap these have gone fast. I guess I'll settle for the 5000 pressing... -
Vagrant 25 Years Vinyl Represses
MacDonals replied to hyperg1ant's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Perhaps confirmation bias, but I've had white records with an extreme amount of static. Either way, I tend to go for the strongest vinyl to give the best chance there won't be a warp or dish, and that's heavyweight black (the hardest vinyl). -
Vagrant 25 Years Vinyl Represses
MacDonals replied to hyperg1ant's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I'm falling in line with this way of thinking too. I remember some other jaded soul posting a response to a pre-order announcement with "get your fresh dishes here!" No kidding, almost every record ships with a warp or just completely dished. So I've set up a few rules: No 2xLPs that follow the 3 tracks / side model. It's not needed and inner grove quality issues are fixed with a good transfer / pressing / math. Only get records I can envision playing more than once. Say yes to new records of seminal releases in my history. See Deep Elm represses, etc. Don't buy a record if I already own it. No gimmick shit. Picture disks, glow in the dark, white vinyl, should be avoided at all cost. 180G black pressings preferred. If the pre-order is more than 6 months away, fuck that. -
PO: Thrice - The Artist in the Ambulance (Revisited)
MacDonals replied to dapeebs's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I ordered my copy from an indie shop and still haven't received it. No notification from the shop either. I wonder if I'll ever get my green copy. -
Damn, although Dull looks good, I really want the Vomit variant. Found an option. https://store.rattlebackrecords.com/UPC/603967182033

MacDonals replied to thejesseb's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I feel that, especially with clear, but I'm also a slut for the lowest quantity variant... -

This was tempting, but I'm trying to hold off. You guys are not making it easy... Damnit, I went ahead and ordered the pinwheel before it was gone. -
This is huge.

Ryam Adams - PAX AM Records

I've seen this on Reddit and other places. I don't understand it. -
Ryam Adams - PAX AM Records
MacDonals replied to timsimmons's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
They have been lackluster, and the binge of new music is odd. Perhaps it's a part of his therapy. Anyways, I'm still a fan and bought these records... -
I would like to have the Bon Iver flexi single but I have such a hard time justifying noisy white vinyl. The red looks nice, and so far this single is better than what I've heard from the past two albums.

Vagrant 25 Years Vinyl Represses
MacDonals replied to hyperg1ant's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
This is a very good record, even though it often gets overlooked. -
I'm not surprised at the varying opinions. This is an emo super group, who some of us are stans for, and we will naturally compare to their other bands. Personally, this is an excellent record and Anthony's scream is something I didn't know I needed in my life (have not really listened to him much before).

I got my copy of the 180G black today. It looks great, and I'll put it on the deck soon!

PO now: Spanish Love Songs - Schmaltz
MacDonals replied to yeah_totally's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I ordered shortly after your post and only the gold variant was left. This seems like it went fast
