I think this is a really good album. Surprised this far into their career they still have it in them.

Side B definitely the stronger side.

Fuck the line at Cafe du Monde tho. We got beignets at a random little cafe and they were dope as fuck.

 

Are you vegan? Because so am I but my girlfriend and I were like "Fuck it, we're eating seafood this week" and Coops was the fucking shit. Dat Dog had a dope alligator hot dog.

I love Coops. Recommend that place to everyone.

Huck Gee one of the founders of Kid Robot has a new brand he is kickstarting called Superplastic, not to late to get in on the ground floor!

I don't think Huck Gee was a Kidrobot founder.

Anyway, got out of this game a long time ago. Kept a couple of KAWS pieces, a couple of 8" Dunnys and a Smorkin' Labbit. These things just became dust collectors and took up too much space.

Anyone here with a vault membership who didn't but the Dinosaur Jr Blue Room Sessions?  I don't have a membership but was interested in the blue vinyl.

I do.

nobody ships a record like me...I take to cardboard squares and put one on front and one on back.  then I take a bubble evelope and cut in into 4 corner pieces and put one on each corner then I put that into a record mailer.  it is the best safest way to ship a record and no one else seems to understand this.

You are the Donald trump of record selling/shipping.

Any leads for Pornosonic & Sufjan Stevens Mystery of Love?

Call Record Grouch in Brooklyn to see if they still have the Pornosonic. They will ship.

Still can't find Arcade Fire! Argh. Help?

Has their stuff up, but the website is a little wonky. I saw Stevens tick away before my very eyes.

Thanks!

Anyone come across hillbillies in hell vol 666.  I went to 4 stores and couldn't find a copy

Record Grouch in Brooklyn had a copy or two.

If you are still looking for a green pressing.

Excellent news. Love a polarizing record that I find to be amazing.

Illinois red and green vinyl has been added.

Let us know when you stop ordering from every company that uses those mailers too.

Have already done that. Film industry is also starting a movement to boycott Uline.

Please continue to be a SJW for us all.  I am sure the 10 record mailers a year you are now no longer buying from them will surely crumble their shipping empire.  It will crumble right along Hobby Lobby and Chik-Fil-a.

Thanks for letting us know where you stand on racism and homophobia.

streetwaves talkin' like he didn't get a copy lol.

 

sometimes orders get delayed. the right thing to do is to let your people know. sometimes people don't always do the right thing.

 

record is quiet as shit. good performance tho. he rules. glad i got to see him a couple times in 2017.

My copy is sitting right here.

Record mailers are probably .0001% of their total sales. 

Please continue to sit on your hands and do nothing.

I stopped using Uline mailers once I found out about the douchebags who own and run the company. The Uihlein family loves to support Far-Right Republicans like alleged child molester Roy Moore. I also urge you to ask retailers to stop using their product as well.

If a pressing is delayed any other distributor or label would usually communicate that. Bull Moose, for example, never fails to send out an email anytime a release date changes. 

If this is your first time experiencing something like this---be prepared for a lifetime of disappointment.

Entitlement ? Call me crazy, but I like it when a label (or anyone) is true to their word. Rough Trade has over 1000 people wondering where their orders are and have made ZERO effort in communicating  this delay to their customers. Poor form is poor form.  

 

The sounds of entitlement. Take a deep breath and employ some patience.

Some of you guys whine way too much. How long have you been collecting records? How many labels or Discogs sellers always reach out when things are a bit delayed? Do you think that Rough Trade is going to jump at the chance to do something like this again when they have been subjected to a barrage of email that reeks of entitlement? Don't worry kids, your precious 12" of vinyl will eventually show up so that you can brag that you have something that someone else doesn't so that you can feel superior for about 12 minutes.

Because that is what it's called on the Castle Face site. 

Actually, Castle Face calls it a 12" single which implies something different than simply a single.

Will prob regret not just buying it, but passing on the $21 single. 

Why do you call it a single? Seems like more of an EP. Longer songs that also include a Trad Gras cover---sounds like a winner to me!
