PO Soon - Underoath - Voyeurist
backpackoat replied to cautionthieves's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
After my first few listens I thought to myself, "Have I grown out of this kind of music?" but then I remembered ETID put out an AOTY contender last year and realize, no, this is just an aggressively bland, milquetoast album with absolutely no memorable or standout moments. It is disappointing, and I was actually looking forward to having some throwback fun with this one. -
Wow, I guess DF shut down way more recently than I remember. It's funny to see my list of incoming records: Weezer's Pacific Daydream, Circa's The Amulet, etc. https://deadformat.com/collection/backpackoat

Every Time I Die - Album 9
backpackoat replied to ethereal's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
This is probably my album of the year, and if it isn't then it's barely in second place. For me it's their masterpiece and I hope that whatever drama that was happening either has passed or will pass, because god damn (hot damn?) they are a sick ass band and I don't want them going away -
PO: Typhoon Hunger and Thirst 11th Anniversary Deluxe
backpackoat replied to tvrec's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
11th anniversary... that's a new one. I love this album but I will never get over how Tender Loving Empire screwed me over on a Kickstarter of theirs I backed, and then also when I bought some records from them and some were missing and they made me split half the cost with them to have them resent. And it was their error! That was probably 10 years ago but they can go screw themselves--tenderly and lovingly of course. -
Rough Trade Album Circle Club
backpackoat replied to hyperg1ant's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
hahahaha. Must be nice to be able to blame everything on the pandemic. I'm sure the decision had nothing to do with the fact they scammed customers, silenced criticism, and overall had a """club""" that sucked ass. -

I agree in that Coldplay are capable of much more than the pablum they've been cranking out for the last few albums. Mylo is where they lost me, but Ghost Stories has the song Midnight on it, which is such a killer track and I'd like to hear an album in that more experimental, ethereal vein. I think they'd be very good at it. I'll keep holding on to hope.

Available to tiers 2+, as far as I can tell. Still available. -

JFC. Can't wait to see the state of this thread in a few pages -
Yellowcard - Ocean Avenue
backpackoat replied to IndigoHollow's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I would have gladly done that, but while they did accept two payments, they were still only shipping one per person. They did easily refund me after I emailed them, to follow up on that. -
Yellowcard - Ocean Avenue
backpackoat replied to IndigoHollow's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I received my record over the weekend, however I never received a refund on my second accidental order. I know the double order happened to a lot of people, so please check your bank accounts as well. I sent an email to customer service this morning and hope to see a resolution soon. -
Yellowcard - Ocean Avenue
backpackoat replied to IndigoHollow's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I accidentally got two copies of the yellow because of the website failures... hope they don't cancel both my orders as I didn't do it on purpose -
Soon? The Mars Volta
backpackoat replied to At The Mars Spartamasque's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Boy I was really looking forward to casually enjoying a new album, yet I somehow sit here $550 poorer -
PO: Typhoon -- Sympathetic Magic
backpackoat replied to tvrec's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
oh nice, i used to love typhoon but thought they broke up for some reason. cool! -
Weird that people have already gotten theirs because instead of mine shipping OR getting the next pressing, I got this (US distro): Hello, We would like to apologize for the delay of your Phoebe Bridgers Copycat Killer 12" and give you an update on its status. As a result of unprecedented manufacturing delays due to the pandemic’s effect on all industries, the delivery of Phoebe has been delayed. We are hoping to see copies arrive in early January. Orders will be fulfilled as quickly as possible once stock arrives.

PO Now: Taylor Swift - Evermore 2xLP (Digital PO now)
backpackoat replied to jhulud's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Hearing her and Matt Berninger finally sing together feels cathartic as it always seemed a foregone conclusion. That song was great. I don't know how it's possible (it's probably just the fanboy in me) but Justin Vernon elevates everything he's in. Exile and Evermore are awesome songs. On first listen I don't like this album as immediately as folklore, but it's still good. I'm sure I'll like it more as I listen again, it just seems a little superfluous upon first pass. -
Showbread - No Sir, Nihilism Is Not Practical
backpackoat replied to rcafilm's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I've seen you have this take a few times. I'm really not trying to antagonize or argue with you but I don't understand it. $40 is a ridiculous cost for an album. Should we just keep being okay with these labels continuing to push up the "regular" cost of vinyl? Next year it'll be $50.
