I was wondering what happened with my signed pre-order.
 
No excuse for auto-pen. He has PLENTY of time to sign them! 😄

New song sucks...
 

I had an OG pressing signed by the band that I won in street team contest for them.....sold it on ebay because I was broke and just out of school.  SO STUPID.

Cross-posting this from the ambient thread, because Denovali also releases post-rock and metal records.
 
Hey everybody, I wanted to re-approach the idea of a group order from Denovali. Current DHL COVID restrictions mean Denovali can only ship 6-8 record orders from Germany to the US, nothing smaller. They're already sitting on a two record order from me, and I was about to order two more records. But if I can find some other folks who are interested in ordering from them, we can combine those orders, split up the cost of shipping and get them shipped out now. If this sounds like something you might be interested in, PM me. I've got like 7 mailers here, and the more people who order, the more we can spread out the shipping costs (Germany to me, plus $4 for me to ship it to you).
 
Back in the day, high shipping prices meant this was the only way to order from Denovali, but it seems like it's a good time to re-start the concept.

And I can’t believe I passed on it because it was an extra $5........

I still can't believe I managed to snag one of the /100 red presses of Frames...love that record!

Is there any reason to get this if I already have S&M? It's mostly the same songs except for a few newer mediocre tunes. 

$60 + $45 shipping to Germany...fuck that! I hope some EU distri will sell them...

took a family photo the other night. theres a missing bassman 100+matching 212, and 50w garnett head, but this is mostly it.

Knocked off some white whale pieces recently so here's an update:

 (Left to right)
Garnet Session Man w/ reverb and solo channel (they call this the Canadian Fender Twin. Great cleans, more grit if needed)
Avatar 212 cab w/ V30 speakers
Gibson Marauder w/ Lollar humbucker
Traynor YBA-1 head
Marshall 412 w/ celestion black back speakers (best sounding cab I've ever played)
1977 Marshall JMP 100w lead
Marshall 810 guitar cab
Univox LP double cut w/ Pickup wizard P90
Vox AC30 limited edition w/alnico blue speakers
Custom made 212 cab w/ greenbacks 
 
Might sell the Garnet. I got it for so cheap because it was broken and made the easy fix. Little too clean for me, plus since getting the Marshall its been the tone I've been chasing for years. 

DAMN YES!!!

Awesome, another amazing post rock band that’s gonna get shafted by Magic Bullet.

Thanks man! It’s a fantastic pedal...instant doom when you put any kind of OD/distortion in front of it. Infinite sound walls...

Bumping this old piece of sh*t in order to let the Caspian thread die...
Here's a picture of a SUNN MODEL T Preamp that I've built

Here's my old one (last year), too heavy to carry around...therefore I downsized; will take a picture of the new one in the next days.

 

This album is definitely growing on me with each listen. I'm not bothered at all by the vocals, in fact, I think they're a slight improvement over previous albums. I like the proggy elements they've added as well, it's nice Elder can continue to still sound like themselves but also evolve and not get stale. Looking forward to when my vinyl copy arrives.

Possibly one of the best gigs I saw was when Oceansize played the entirety of Frames a week before recording it down. Was such a small club. I've also bootlegged it, but didn't share it at the time, but can imagine the band's over that now so if anyone likes dirty sweaty audience recordings, PM me.

Same, I was glad to see that as they were!
 
They posted today that their whole catalog is also pay-what-you-want on bandcamp.
