right... yeah, that doesn't surprise me.  in my original post, i specifically said that i don't care if it ends up being on black.  I'm not a nut for colored vinyl.  It's cool and all, but it's not do or die for me.  i wonder if there's actually people that will refuse to get an album on black if they weren't able to get a colored copy.

I actually meant any color at half the original price. The original price was something like $35, so down to $30 isn't much of a savings. Especially because I could have bought the purple for $35 when I saw it.

I'm not arguing that this TOTD is a lot of money, but I have been looking for sooo long that it is still completely worth it for me. Now, let's just hope the sound is good.

You will be waiting a long time. If someone can point me in the direction of the Mother Love Bone for half of original price I would be amazed. Stupidly slept on that one and not making that mistake here.

I just don't get why people don't like this album. I'm listening to it all of the time. Much better than Backspacer.

not available for purchase yet, but i ordered my green marble copy of real thing from this site:

good prices for imports

 Where does it say that this copy is green?

My advice to anyone thinking of dealing with this company is DON'T DO IT. You are rolling the dice. You might get lucky and you might not. These fuckers are trying to keep the money for jerseys they apparently don't have in stock, but took payment and yet they list them in stock on their site. I should have went with my instincts and not ordered. Do not order from 2009jerseys.net.

It's not that I'm doubting you by any means, but I feel like I really need to see this.

I've always meant to video it. Last year I played the classroom "Concubine", course I didn't tell them the title. A video will happen.

Athletics! Not just saying that because they share the name of my baseball team. Post rock vocal bonanza.

Completely amazed that they still even have this record available from the first pressing.

Yep. I just ordered it.

Search Temple of the dog and order from the first page. Don't go to the album listing.

Truth!

Thank you for your order! You will receive an email confirming your order.

Just did a "live chat" with SSD and they should have an announcement on their site in an hour or so about the details of the reissue.

1) What is your favorite Converge album? All We Love We Leave Behind

2) What is your favorite Converge song? "Dark Horse" You would think I would pick something off of AWLWLB, but this song just makes me go kookoobananas. I also play it sometimes in my classroom. Converge + 3rd graders = mayhem!

3) What is your favorite Converge album cover? Jane Doe, of course!

4) What is your best memory seeing Converge live? I've only seen them once and I was really tired that night (seems to happen more and more as years go by). With Bannon running all around the stage it was like a mainline of adrenaline and I was very close to getting in the pit. Frickin' amazing show is an understatement.

Gotta shipping confirmation from Bull Moose. Reckless says they have them. I know I could just walk over and check but I'm too busy.

Busted out at Bullmoose. Now giving Reckless a shot.

FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lexicon, I stand corrected.

I just hope you get your record soon!

Eh...it depends. Once you get past Too Much Blood, that b-side is amazing. It is a couple of steps up from American Slang.

 

 

I mean, they were never going to be mainstream, but what I am saying is that they will not be a band that will be celebrating 20 years together or anything (a la The Souls). They've sped up their demise. And by they, I mean Brian and their management. I still firmly believe that the other dudes don't have big heads based on brief encounters I've had. 

I feel the like big lights are just within their grasp. I'm not a Gaslight expert at all, but their records all pretty much have the same sound. I feel like they need to branch out and experiment and maybe even make a record that many of us would say, "This isn't a TGA record!" From that they could grow and strengthen their sound. Get Brian on the phone and let me talk to him.

That sucks. Did you get an email?

Yep. They said that they only got a certain amount and doubt they will get more. They're going to keep my order open for a couple days to see if one shows up. Not holding my breath.

I got my 10c version today expecting the worst, but it plays fine. Sounds like there are some widespread problems though. That guy with the  two b-side labels just got a collector's item .

No reason to be a dick. Not really fair to take a piss on someone who doesn't have anything to do with the problem that we're all up in arms about.

 

The management group is now working on rectifying the situation, but didn't cause it.

 

When some rep from Infinite Merch starts posting on the boards, by all means let them have it.

Never got anything from em... Never heard from Infinite Merch... Never heard from that GLA manager chick that posted for 3 days...

Bunch of bullshit.

My order from Bullmoose is on hold. Looks like they oversold.

If you wanna be hardcore and get all versions there's this http://www.bullmoose.com/p/15338655/skeletonwitch-serpents-unleashed-lmtd-ed

Thanks. I went ahead and ordered that plainer than plain version.

Wish that was a free DL. I already spent about $70 on merch when they played.

Damn you guys were so good tonight. Wish I knew you were going on early though. Two and half songs is better than nothing. Come back to Norcal soon!

Got both.

Shouldn't we NOT be using a discount code since this is for a charity and all? Anyway, I ordered one of each, no discount, hope I get these before Halloween!

Just curious, when was the show?

It was at Eli's Mile High Club in Oakland. They didn't have a guitarist so NB "played" and it was a frickin' disaster. The band looked bummed. Some guys in the audience were trying to tune and played some song for a while.

My bad. I was just following the protocol that I see on here all the time. I would have wanted to know the pre-order was live if I hadn't checked my e-mail.

I DEFINITELY appreciate you posting about this and don't think it's in bad form AT ALL. I am subscribed to the email list, but didn't get this one. You are the reason why I have my colored Nobunny. Thank you! I also like the way Goner handled this one.
