Man I dont see how you can love 1 and not 2. What didn't you like about it?

Hard to explain. I guess I found it a little boring; LP1 was a bit more dynamic and less - dare I say - jammy? It was a bit more in your face and had some hooks that really stood out. LP2 just kinda blurred together with the exception of The Plan, which gets stuck in my head for days.

I was just listening to LP1 and remember how much I absolutely LOVE that record. Then I went back to LP2 remembered how much I wanted to love it and didn't. I don't think I came around to 3. 

Wonder why this is 5000 and not 4000?

UP @ RFC and DW with exclusives.

Just came here to check on this - no info anywhere yet. V excited for this.

Sorry, that was rude of me.

 

We are talking about Rick Froberg now. Fake Kinkade is a jam.

SUD into Milk Cow Blues is something special.

As someone who doesn’t own that Arctic Monkeys record; please hit me up if you’ve got a subscription but have no interest in owning it or swapping for next month.  Will gladly just give you some cash for it... otherwise I’ll just prowl Discogs for someone offloading one.  I seem to have decent luck securing VMP subs that way.

If there aren't any appealing swaps available, you'll be doing me a favor! If you don't get a sure-fire thing, hit me up in a couple weeks.

Obits were good too.

You transitioned from Reis to Froberg without warning.

I couldn’t agree more. I love hot snakes way more than rocket. 

Everyone is neglecting the catchy anthem rock greatness that is The Night Marchers, whom I would rank second to Hot Snakes.

This album fucking rips. Is there a better rock and roll band on the planet?

Ha! No. 

The record is in, and damn is it good. Like all good Hot Snakes, it makes me scowl and bob my head. Maybe shred some air guitar. The answers to life's biggest questions may even be hidden here. So glad they're back. 

Yep. I've listened through 3 or so times and there are some really outstanding tracks. Not sure if it's the compression on the files or Google Music, but the mix sounds a little off - drums seem really far back.

So today I put an offer in on a house (fingers crossed.)

With that being said; Im selling my limited CD copy as well as some other vinyl I'll be posting soon.  If anyone is interested in it, please let me know.  Im not looking for the $350 they go for on eBay, but I am looking to make a decent amount that would almost come close to that after fees.  I'll take it to eBay if need be, but telling you guys first who are actually really looking for it but hesitant on eBay prices.  Never opened.  Just shoot me an offer.  Downgrade me or give me negative points, thats fine.  Just throwing this out there before eBay.

Congrats man! Where's the house? I'm in the process too.

You're clearly new to the concept of Brand New threads on the boards, but that's okay.  This topic will probably break 100 pages minimum, and remain active for a good while.  Especially come October.  General forum etiquette also suggests that you don't go into popular threads and tell people to cease discussion.  Buckle up or piss off; those are really your two options here.

It brought me out of VC retirement. I may not be the biggest Brand New fanboy, but I sure do know a good show when I see one!

Fuck yeah.  Those deluxe, hardcover editions with expanded liner notes and additional bells, whistles, art, etc. are definitely my jam.  Hoping that's exactly what the "Limited" edition is.  A separate variant would be cool as well but it's not something that's 100% necessary.

I think this is safe. The details say that the artwork is by Morning Breath, but we know the cover is a stock photo that was used by another band. I'm hoping for something original in the screen printing realm. 

In the name of compiling information: I was able to snag a "limited vinyl" during round 2 last night. My receipt came in late, but only mentions "limited vinyl" and download, and did not include "relevant media" like the OG purchases. 

Wasn't there an original pressing of this called "Inside The Dust Sleeve" or am I making that up?

Anything worth doing is worth doing right. Thanks people.

Skip to 1:49!

Those 10 seconds just loop in my brain forever. 

Anyone find the RSD release?

Good bud of mine runs the label. He's the best guy ever. The label is a labor of love, but every release is high quality. Support them!

I wonder if since I started this thread and bought one first that I will get like # 1 or 2.

 

hmm.

 

now if mine would just come in the mail.  I am literally a waterway away from Brooklyn.  wtf.

i got #2 and ordered relatively late.

Came in with #2. Anyone land #1?

i've decided the only artists i'm going to buy records from anymore are Self Defense Family and Bonnie "Prince" Billy.  don't ask why.  i don't know.  but that's how it is and it feels good.

while the band is tighter than ever, the vocals is a touch too produced for my hulud likings.  i always appreciated the more gritty and less polished vocals where chad sounded like he was about to bust a blood vessel tearing through the songs.
