Self-titled and Ivy were amazing. The few songs that have come out since those LPs have been meh, unfortunately.

Sold out again.

Gotta go with the black 180g!

Wow that moved fast. I managed to get the EVR splatter at least...

This album is so good. I lucked out and got a VG+ copy on Discogs a few years ago for $20, but it's white and a bit noisy. I'm going for the Brooklyn Vegan copy. BTW, for all my peeps who absolutely love this record, if you haven't seen their Telegraph Sessions, prepare to have your mind blown.

7"s in general...

So many double LPs. I'm sorry, I just like a well engineered and sequenced single LP. Still a great sale. Group Sounds, On A Wire, and The Fire for <$50, all in.

The blue swirl looks nice as hell, but RevHQ version is the best matching and low pressing quantity.

Honestly surprised that misspelling didn't get caught. It really stands out.

These are finally shipping! I received my red copy today, and it looks and sounds fantastic.

I like these songs. I had to order the bundle since the single records were all sold out. I'm sure other people will also have extras...

Dude.

Weird that it's on Amazon, but I'm ordering anyways.

Holy crap these have gone fast. I guess I'll settle for the 5000 pressing...

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).

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.

Wait a minute, did Dr. Matt Destruction leave the band? OK I looked it up and apparently he left in 2013 and was replaced by "The Johan and Only". Interestingly, he was in a previous band called Randy. The mystery of who Randy Fitzsimmons is, grows...

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, the color variants are all sold out but Black is still available. DBR Brooklyn Vegan RevHQ

Damn, although Dull looks good, I really want the Vomit variant. Found an option. https://store.rattlebackrecords.com/UPC/603967182033

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.

My Benton Falls LPs arrived today and even though I would have preferred the original art, they look amazing. I have only listened to Fighting Starlight and it sounds like a fantastic transfer!

This is huge.

I've seen this on Reddit and other places. I don't understand it.
