It should also be noted that the guy who screwed up was the director of photography. A guy with that position on a movie that big should definitely know his shit.

I think the fact that they are releasing one song a month is such a great idea. Now instead of rushing to make an album in that time frame they only have to focus on getting one song recorded which greatly increases the chances that this entire series will be good. At least that's my hope.

Hopefully this doesn't destroy your hope but all the songs are recorded already. They are still great songs though so it's alright.

I did a quick search and didn't see a thread like this. So I took a few pictures of ones I just happened to have. Share your paradies and rip-offs.

For fun here is my Stray Cats collection.

Angela was clearly the boss.

Opening with 10th Ave. never gets old.

"We all Sing Along" is up today. Check it out. The gang vocals include a ridiculous crowd consisting of Dave/Chris from the Loved Ones, Brian/Alex R. from Gaslight, Matty O of Dodwig, Timmy from Spanish Bombs, Jesse from Gimme Drugs, Me from nobody gives a shit, and a bunch of others yelling along. Dig it.

Started January 1st and the subscription is only available until the 31st. Every three months a 7" will come out with the previous months songs and a bonus song, which will only be available digitally through the subscription.

The new song is a classic Souls sing along kinda song, incase the title didn't give that away already.

pikemess, thought you might enjoy these pictures. Tarantulas Records used to send records out in these custom mailers. I don't remember what the 'contest' was but I received these posters and button/sticker pack because I won it along with a written note saying they included a Tarantulas stencil for me. It's signed Tarantulas and the Explosion. I just planned on taking a pic of the mailer and found all that stuff inside. I'd totally forgotten about it. Oh, and there's also a huge red tarantula stenciled on the inside of the mailer.

Thanks for posting that; it's fucking awesome! I would love to check my mail one day and discover that. After seeing this maybe I'll make my own stencil.

Thanks. I'm glad a bunch of you guys dig it. I love all the yellows, reds, and tarantulas all over. Someday I hope to add a Sick of Modern Art test press to the collection.

The Movielife - Forty Hour Train Back To Penn ltd digipak (this version's cover artwork was considered too graphic to be sold in stores at walmart/target and was only available from TML on tour (Finch/TML/A Static Lullaby tour Feb '03) or via the Drive Thru webstore at that time if I remember correctly.

from Dubin who ran Fadeway Records:

Hey Steve

that is me.. basically the cd with the picture of vinny jumping off the bridge (the copy you bought) was the first pressing, and the one that more closely matches the art was the 2nd and 3rd pressings... Its a bit cloudy but I believe there are 1000 of the first and probably like 2000 of the second pressing.

I think that the second pressing also has a hidden picture under the tray as well...

I hope that helps, please feel free to hit me up with anyother questions.

thanks

dubin.

I can't think of anything else I need, if you know something let me know.

i have a buddy whose 1st cousin is vinnie, i'll see if there is anything else next time i talk to him

That collection is great even with missing pieces.

You talking about Tony? He is one of my closest/oldest friends. He most likely knows nothing about their vinyl shit, not into records, but he could of course go straight to the source.

ah okay, i thought that test for one of the lps there

Yeah, I probably should've written out what everything was. Oh well, laziness prevails

If they were duplicates I'd sell you one. The one on the left is the original cover/back cover/insert and the right one is the corrected version that fixed some details. Most of the original copies also have hand written notes on the paper sleeve from Pete V.

is their song on the "can you break through comp" an exclusive song cause i have that.

It was exclusive up until Chunksaah put out their anathology in '03 which includes it. I actually have the test for that comp.

Sticks & Stones

rats, you've got two of the world to be saved... that I'm still missing!

do you have that shredder comp on clear? (for the dude with the stick and stones collection)

My copy is black, didn't even know it was also on clear. Not too concerned with comps though.

cool clash collection. What is the camouflage picture disc?

It's one of the promo presses for Combat Rock. I'm pretty sure there is another slightly different one as well.

Here's my Explosion collection.

Sticks & Stones

Worthless. I recall a few months back a thread about them So I figured why not. Hope Zak sees this and shakes his head.

The Clash. A long long work in progress amazingly far from complete. Probably won't ever be.

Their last record, Addicted to Bad Ideas, is a "concept" album/song cycle that goes throughout the life and times of actor Peter Lorre. Lorre was famous for his work in M, Casablanca, Mr. Moto, and countless other movies. This show runs through the cycle and also includes aspects of a stage show inbetween songs in which band members take roles of the characters in Lorre's life. The show also involving some mult-media to round it off.

The band has put a ton of hard work into the show over the past year and it's not something to miss. Besides that they are playing a full set after the Lorre Story, so even if the story isn't your thing, you can still get a regular set. It's almost sold out so if you wanna go, get 'em while you can!

Nah man, go ahead and use 'em. Yep, the word was passed down from Chunksaah. I also wish I could take credit for the sheets but they're not mine.

So I finally learned that it's out of 25. Score one for me.

My friend gave me this cuz he knows I like The Loved Ones. I figured it was one of the recent pressings but when I checked those were Pink and Blue covers. Anyone have the info on this?

Horseshit. My friend offered me a ticket to that date's taping but I can't go because of my chorus winter concert. I was bummed enough to miss Conan but this makes it that much worse.

Apparently at the Fest they played as dead Bouncing Souls and "haunted" the crowd with only songs from Maniacal Laughter and Good/Bad/Argyle. Hope they do cool shit like that at these shows. Obviously, not dress up for halloween side of it but do some special stuff with the sets.

Bumping for tickets going on sale tomorrow at noon.
