This is completely different than someone licensing a real album that real musicians made and honestly just makes Chris Pratt look like a giant dounche for mulling the idea over anyways to potentially have a platinum album. Him realizing it would never go platinum is the real reason he doesn't want to promote it.

Not that it's any better, but the real reason is stated. He states that he wasn't going to be compensated for it so he's not promoting it. He then goes on to say this about the guy that actually wrote the songs:

"I just hope that Mark Rivers gets compensated, ’cause that dude is the heart and soul and brains and talent behind Mouse Rat. So, if anything, I would just advocate that Mark be taken care of because he did such a great job."

Definitely. Both of those are good albums and can be interchangeable in my opinion. There was a definite decline after Plans.

This is how I look at DCFC.

I had no idea people even liked Facts.

Can confirm it generated more buzz at Furnace Fest than NJ IMO

Interesting because across Spotify, LastFM, and song streaming tracking, Norma Jean has more every single time and both of these releases are the first time on vinyl.

I've been waiting for this, and it does come with the bonus Stability EP 12", but $48.94 shipped is tough.

I remember when that first single came out and it was a BANGER. Then...the rest of the album was awful.

That was miserable, but, done.

Not sure how this stuff is still happening in 2021.

Wax Mage sold out instantly...I want to say within 2 seconds.

it’s worth its weight in gold. 

Damn...180 grams of gold is worth like $10,000.

I sprung for the blankie and record 👀

Side note: My orange and red have shipped.

I'm trying to go to the Baltimore fundraiser tonight, and the band is selling early copies of CD & vinyl which is awesome.

Feel free to grab me some Carpet collab and I'll get you some dough.

Yeah, I’ve never owned the Hot Topic press but I found it boggling how almost unanimously across the web, everyone seems to insist it sounds like shit.  I’ve never had an issue with the 1LP version, but it’s so surprising that it’d sound worse spanned across 2 LPs.  Hope they figure it out for the reissue.

Mine seriously sounded so bad and I normally don’t complain. Static and/or sibilance the entire time.

They don’t miss

First single I haven’t loved. 

What’s the deal with Vagrant shipping prices? $15 to ship 3 records to Massachusetts?

Anyone seen the Indie White variant available from any US shops? Can only find it in the EU,

Tomorrow (8/6) @ 12 EST https://instagram.com/stories/turnstileluvconnection/2633953360594544288?utm_medium=copy_link

Hmmm so yes technically gold AND platinum for 2012. I’d contact for a refund. 

Technically it said “almost” 1 million so I guess gold is correct.

Plus the shipping. It was $50 shipped from storm chasers and $30 shipped from Asianman. 

How is he shipping to the UK for $15? Must be taking a loss there. I thought it was roughly ~$23. Solid on his part. 

baby blue variant /1,000 tomorrow (7/16) @ 12 EST.

It’s definitely an off choice but I actually liked that one… couldn’t turn down the red haha.

Boofuckinghoo. A corner ding. Really? 

I’ve literally never commented on a corner ding (or split seam for that matter…just touch it up with some Elmers glue) before. Pretty presumptuous to assume I’m complaining about a small ding. It looks like each corner was pushed in like an accordion. 

Anybody else have them arrive absolutely wrecked? Mine just got here because I ordered each release and all of them have a severely smushed corner.
