Still waiting for Four Minute Mile

For 12 grand I'd fucking listen to every single one of those records and convince myself I love every single minute of every single piece of shit release. I'd sit on the floor crying and tell myself they're tears of joy because I finally got everything I wanted.

Nothing from Zia yet. It would've been cool to have this at my doorstep on release day, but the fact that it'll be here earlier than 6 months after the release date is good enough for me lol EDIT: Zia actually shipped.. It'll be here in 6 days. Nothing from hopeless (yeah, ordered that too; I love this band)

Fml I'm going to sit this one out. I bought Air for Free and Collapsible Lung a few days back and just received them. Not going to pay for shipping again

Separate thought (hence the separate post) Does anyone expect a Vagrant Webstore exclusive of SWYA? I've held off on the retail and Newbury variants because the webstore versions are usually nicer and cheaper to ship. Anyone have an idea? We didn't end up getting a SS webstore exclusive, but we did see that Zia exclusive to go with Newbury and retail.

So I know mockups are photoshopped, but I just compared the Vagrant 25 sticker on that SWYA mockup to one of the Anniversary pressings (which are 12 in) and the sticker on the SWYA appears to take more space relative to the jacket... Also did this comparison to the SS mockup, and the size of the sticker is closer to my real life Anniversary copy than to SWYA, so if this is any indication then SS is 12in and SWYA is indeed a 10in

My Cancer variant came in. Was expecting it to be half white w/ splatter and half clear, but it's a clear with white/splatter pinwheel. Not what I was expecting, but it looks nice regardless. Will give it a listen tonight

And right as they started releasing the more sought after records..

Maybe it's quicker queue at the plant since there are less 10in being pressed? Of course this would only make sense if they didn't request at the same time that all these titles be pressed, which is unlikely... Didn't someone post on here that Alkaline Trio said they'd be repressing GM as a double 10in? Maybe the Vagrant anniversary presses left will now be in this format. Also hoping that this pattern didn't start with Still Searching, as Newbury originally had it as a double 10in on their site...

The religion bit was stifling their creativity. Now they are free to say 'fuck' in their lyrics every two lines.

You're better off waiting for a deal on the box set. I bought one for $120 a few months back on Discogs, and I know some people have gotten it for cheaper.

Vinyl and NFTs actually go really well together. Both are at the center of gen z and millennial irrational exuberance fever dreams. If this ever becomes the new norm then I will be saving a lot of money

Has anyone spun this yet? I have the green/yellow color in color and there's a lot of surface noise.... That's a disappointment, since this is one of NFG's cleanest records, production-wise EDIT: side b sounds better than side a; maybe I just got some bad luck

This is likely the indie variant. I ordered it from here weeks ago and it's been restocked a few times since.

I'll go after the 15th anniversary edition of Silverstein's Arrivals & Departures

Smooth process. I was 5 minutes late

Looks like one of the black in blue copies went back in stock at the Hopeless US website. I just bought it. Earlier today they put up a few but they sold out as I was checking out It seems like they're adding a few back on the site sporadically, so if you really want this then just keep refreshing.

It was up on the hopeless store for like 5 minutes. There are like 50 when I first got the notification, but they flew

We're also talking about some PVC with grooves on it. They aren't preventing you from accessing clean drinking water or some shit...

I hope they release a regular, no bullshit variant soon..

Wtf the purple was on the hopeless site for 5 minutes, and I missed it. Took a nap and missed this one.... Oh well

I'm never getting my Hot Mulligan represses, huh?

I bought one of these when this was originally posted. I listen to it every so often in bed before going to sleep. Very cool album.

I love it.

Is it just me, or does Newbury consistently get the riskiest looking copies. They have such strange color in colors, that I'm sure many of them come out looking like crap. I'm expecting the Vagrant webstore version to be some clear with canary yellow and white splatter, or something like that
