Some books are cut this way.  Don’t ask why.  Just to make it seem unique or fancy or whatever.  I have a couple cut this way actually. No reason to return it unless it annoys you personally.

Thank you for your reply. So you think that this was done on purpose? 

Fellow book friends, I need some advice. I got this hardcover book from Amazon today with the pages all messed up, it looks like they haven't been cut up properly. I never had this happen before, so I don't know what to do. Would you return it or does this pappen sometimes? Thanks.

They had a good run for awhile, with good discounts and their prices were lower, seems like now even with the discount the prices are the same as everywhere else.  I bought a ton of shit from them a few years ago.  

Yeah, that might be the case for US folks, but for us Europeans they are still great. You can preorder a ton of stuff with pretty low international shipping, and they ship everything by itself once it is in hand. So you never have to worry about additional VAT or import taxes because you only get one record at a time, which is awesome.

New code "CHOICE15" for 15% off. Expires February 28th already.

Just came to post about the new press. Here is how mine came out:

Details

New album announced, and first single. No PO yet.

He has the vinyl for sale on tour, so it most likely is only the US part of the pressing that got delayed.

Did we ever determine whether everyone who ordered the colored from TRL will get the CD?

My order states LP+CD, but they never had the colored one up by itself, without the CD, right?

So ready for this!

Did you guys see this? I found it to be funny and depressing at the same time.

The Flenser has an end of the year sale, 25% off everything with the code BURNITDOWN.

And meet Rico.

Meet Metro.

No vinyl planned though, digital and cassette for the time being. Excited nonetheless.

I actually enjoyed both of the albums after this couch  is long  and full of friendship , but only if you ignore most of the cringe worthy lyrics.

Do you also have a headache in your head?

I can’t think of Celebrate without that awful line popping up in my head, kind of ruined it for me.

Clear is being sold at the same price on discogs

In the US, yes, but over here in Europe you can't get it for under $50-60.
