Def getting the Type O!!! 5000 sounds like I should be able to get one no problem, as well. At 5000 there may even be some left over for a few weeks.

This arrived yesterday. Artwork is a bit softer than my OP, but look decent enough. I’ll check it out soon.

Correct. Vaults LP uses the original mix for RIP. I would love Youth and CW, but if they are the 2004 remixes, I would pass. Those 2 aren’t as bad as RIP, but they still sound funny to me.

That 2004 remix is REALLY bad. RIP is one of my favorite albums, so if it was the original mix, I’d triple dip for the blue. I guess we’ll never see original mixes of any of the 90’s albums reissued on vinyl. Too bad as OPs are crazy $$$.

Thanks. Picked one up.

Looks like it’s just two songs from the album.

Oh no! Etching on side 6!

Ah, true fan. Good choice.

Sucker, or true fan that gladly pays more for less so the band can make a little money? You decide.

Phew! Now that that’s ordered I can begin composing my strongly worded post/review/fan fiction outlining how this album is no (Insert any previous album title).

Just listened to The Gutter. Initial thought is not enough Good Apollo, and WAY too much The Color Before The Sun. Expectations for this album have been appropriately tempered.

I listened to my copy last night. it fits the MOV M.O. Sound quality was fine. It didn’t blow me away, but it’s a Misfits record from 1999, so for what it is it sounded fine. I enjoyed it. The pressing quality on the other hand was excellent. Except for one audible pop on side two there was no surface noise. Even between songs or on the lead in/out it was nearly digital quiet, which is awesome. I didnt notice the back cover was bad but I did notice how nice the front cover turned out. It actually Is larger scope than my CD, which could mean original art assets were used which is cool. if anything, it sucks they didn’t include the Japan bonus tracks. MOV doesn’t usually do that though, so it’s a minor gripe. Overall, it’s a cool release and I’m happy to have a copy. I like this record more than anyone should like non-Danzig Misfits. I like it on its own merits.

I got this in and checked it out. I am most impressed with the packaging. I usually harp on MOV for their cheap packaging, but this has the thickest cardboard of all my Watershed copies. And I love the matte cover as it really fits the tone of this album and the artwork. And the inserts included have more artwork than my other copies as well. pressing quality is nice. This is where MOV is usually consistently good for me. Flat with very little surface noise. Sonics-wise it sounded good, although I didn’t have the drive to do a a-b or a-b-c, at the time. I may do one down the road, but I didn’t notice any thing standing out as better or worse than what I’m used to. Pretty consistent really. It did seem to get a little congested on one point during the middle of Heir Apparent. I checked my alignment with my test record and everything sounded great so not sure what was going on. In short, a nice reissue. Also, I got it from Ed’s, and it was shipped and packed well, and in perfect shape.

My mom doesn’t have a custom shirt with her cat on it, but I do. Does that count?

I think I saw a young woman in the same pants the other day. She looked just as bad as both Freddie, and my mom looks in that style.

That song was garbage. I havent liked much since EGBDF, so, take that for what it’s worth.

Of course, that is possible. One could also argue that it is one of many different “systems” that the LP was tested on.

Yeah, it looks like a Crosley Cruiser.

I took the liberty of trying to identify what this test pressing was sitting on, as there is clearly a turntable spindle, and the record is spinning. It doesn’t look good... In other news, I’m looking forward to getting a copy of the LP.

Not happy about it coming from MOV, but it will have to do.

Not a huge fan of the new song, but i’ll give it some time. It’s not bad.

I’m interested in the standard pressing. Probably just get it locally. The release just about breaks even, though, as every point lost for the poncho, is made up for by the fact that this isn’t picture disc only, like the last album.

Pumped

This song is great. If this is what the album sounds like in general, it’ll be a major return to the Good Apollo form. And that is awesome.

Side 2 is embarrassingly bad.
