current era PoS is still great imo
 
sorry bro

I'm stoked for the Fantastic Mr. Fox vinyl. So many good songs on there and such and underrated/over-ignored movie.

hahaha pac man fever is a great record. my first purchase, that I can remember, was at a local store called Eastside Records and was the first EP by The Bled, the single sided spray painted cover one with the original vocalist. Was obsessed with them at that point and just had to have it, even though I had no record player at the time, heh

It was either this or Buckner & Garcia - Pac-Man Fever. 

no

This is getting repressed and should be available in a couple weeks. Good news for those of us that missed it. I had a copy in my Denovali cart but it disappeared before I ordered. I hope the new color is at least half as neat looking as the first press.

I like it black...

If, after listening, you are still wondering what the big deal is, consider that Ryan Gosling is in the band.

Is thrash a color?

1. Counterparts - The Difference Between Hell and Home
2. Deafheaven - Sunbather
3. Off With Their Heads - Home
4. CHVRCHES - The Bones of What You Believe 
5. Mansions - Doom Loop
6. Iron Chic - The Constant One
7. Protest The Hero - Volition 
8. Danny Brown - Old
9. Light Bearer - Silver Tongue 
10. Skeletonwitch - Serpents Unleashed 
11. A Wilhelm Scream - Partycrasher
12. Flatbush Zombies - Better Off Dead
13. Russian Circles - Memorial
14. So Hideous - Last Poem, First Light
15. Cult of Luna - Vertikal 
16. EF - Ceremonies 
17. Kvelertak - Meir
18. Sigur Ros - Kveikur 
19. Celeste - Animale(s) 
20. Sworn In - The Death Card

Most of the stuff I order from US is already crap compared to the same album EU presses, so I say its not.

This kind of ignorance is absurd. Boo this man.

Even if you have multiple copies seeing that still pisses me off.

How do these records sound? I didn't see a topic about this.
 
I enjoy Metallica but pretty much just their singles and a few other songs. The only song missing on this box-set that I love is Seek and Destroy. 
 
Is the sound quality good? Wondering if I should pick this up.

For those of you not springing for this and who still want to hear the instrumental versions. Sigur Rós has the instrumentals up on their soundcloud page.

Oh god not the feedbands thread again

I'll be carrying the complete shelter box afterall along with the white and black regular vinyl editions. I'll also be carrying the Opal 7" single. Details coming soon.

Thank god the list is boring for me. That means I won't have to spend $50 on two 7"s

that lunch you bought yesterday couldn't have been worth $10, QUICK EVERYONE, STOP BUYING FOOD THEYRE RIPPING YOU OFF

That means you open it up and you play it and are able to hear it. I was looking at some albums today, not that long till they're out and others only just out in the last few months and not only do I see terms like sold out and limited and varients but I see people doing trades. Then I browse the very few music forums I bother with including this one and I see these same terms and what I did was I looked at these albums that have sold out in just a few months and also to the ones coming out and it's the same kind of thing. This one will be numbered, this one will be red but this other black varient is only 1000 copies.
 
 
Really? Is that what music is now? That to me means it's shit. How can any company or label with a straight face say they care about the music they are releasing when they stick a number on each one, different colours on each one and then places like this talk about it so you end up with all these people buying the damn things just for the sake of it having it as a collectable. Don't get me wrong, if i owned a label, i'd take every penny I could get out of all you people. You deserve to have your money taken out of your pocket, you deserve to be ripped off, you deserve to pay $30 for a piece of cheap PVC plastic stuck inside some cheap cardboard cover. If i was them I'd do the same damned thing because obviously hand written numbers and colours and limited pressings means more than buying something because you want it and it's going to give you pleasure to listen to it.
 
 
I applaud the bootleggers. I wish they would do more. Paragon done some great bootlegs over the last few years with regards to 12" singles. What we need is more bootleggers to start pressing albums and sell them fast and cheap. Let's face it, major labels are just gonna stick the same CD master onto the record anyway, it's not like they're gonna spend any time making sure Katy Perry sounds good on vinyl so I think we need to go back to the 1990s where the white label was king and you all know that anyway. You know the albums you buy from Amazon are just as good as any bootleg, you fool yourselves into believing you're getting something better but it really isn't. I'd rather that than be told there is only 1000 copies of an album being pressed but oh no....that's just a colour, if you want it on black vinyl well, you're screwed cause that sold out in so many hours but don't worry you can still buy some on white vinyl from this cowboy website in America and pay lots of shipping on top of the premium price because remember it's limited!  We could easily press 5 or 6000 of them but we'd rather fuck you up the ass and get what we can while we can. What an insult to me and my fellow music fans.
 
 
It's all money money money. Anytime i read the word varient or hand numbered or limited I will think of the word money because that's all it is about. And don't any of you lot think I'm on your side, I told you people not that long ago it was your fault for killing off the 7" and 12" single and now through sheer greed and ignorance you're starting to kill off the album LP. Shame on all of you that buy into all this hype and talk and throw your money at these money hungry labels. And you can badmouth me all you want like you tried to do last time because I mentioned I liked popular music and this place thrives on guitar driven music and lets sit barefoot singing a song about love and peace and the thing is, at least with my music, i don't need a million options, I don't need money taken from my bank account months in advance because some geek who has more money than sense decides to dive in and buy it for the sake of making a quick buck rather than giving it to me, someone who actually wants it for the right reasons. When Eminem's MMLP2 gets released in a few weeks, and it will be on vinyl in the UK, no word on the US yet. At least I know i can not only buy it on release but I can buy it at Christmas, next year even, maybe next Christmas or Christmas 2015 because real labels don't just pick a number out of thin air, they keep pressing them and keep making them available to suit the demand. It's like the 100,000 copies of Justin Timberlake's 20/20 album. Those copies will last years. That's how it should be done. Infact I don't even want any replies in this thread, I just had to get that off my chest and let you people know what I think and what I think is right, I'm always right so don't try and argue back at me because you know I'm right and I don't care what the excuses are, It's BS and it ruins the very thought of buying a musical album. Music was never about that and it should never be about that.No one should ever have to feel pressured about buying an album because oh no if you don't buy it now then you can't later. All this stuff about colours is rubbish too, no coloured vinyl was ever superior to black virgin vinyl. Hand numbering? That's fine as long as you keep making them, you don't just stop after a certain number, if the demand is there then you keep going, you don't force people onto Ebay or Discogs. Or you do what the big labels do, you press plenty and you do it on black vinyl and you ship it everywhere you can.

This style is almost overdone already and I'm already starting to get annoyed with the 'blackgaze' tag. But Vesper is fresh, interesting and memorable. This is an AOTY contender and I think 'Gauss' will probably be my SOTY
 
The CD version came out in March and it's received universally great reviews.  Encyclopaedia Metallum gave this 95/100. On SputnikMusic.com Vesper is ranked in the top 5 on black metal and post-rock charts, #1 on the sludge chart and #15 in all genres (voted by users).

I managed to get one of those screened cover editions of Kveikur. On a messageboard I posted for help in London if anyone was going to the Independent Market. A nice guy messaged me and told me he was going to go to see Pere Ubu and he'd go early and try to snag me one. He only charged me what he paid plus shipping. I gave him some extra money just because he's awesome. Though he'd never mailed a record before it was probably the best packaged album I've ever seen. I geek out super hard for Sigur Rós and this is the centerpiece of my SR collection.

This is great! Just couple of weeks ago i was looking for this and was very disappinted that there was only a cd version.
