Its hard to blame a business for finding a way to get (what I assume is) exponential growth but the fun wheels fell of the Mondo wagon years ago. For me.

Good riddance. A comedy of (unforced) errors on what could have been a profitable service from a brand with plenty of credibility to make it work. I’d love to know if it was hubris, incompetence, or what the hell happened behind the scenes to get this outcome. But first, a moment of silence for this dumpster fire; you burned briefly but oh so hot.

This will be my first RSD in a long time, I’m hoping to get a few /10,000 variants of in-print releases from major labels. Do you guys think I should camp or will I be safe if I get in line at 3am?

Incoming demand side justifications in 3, 2, 1. Ben’s sense of entitlement is not new and at this point, clearly won’t won’t change. Flippers gonna flip, baby. You can have my copy if you want Ry, I bought impulsively and don’t really give a shit about 7”.

I saw the same $69.99 locally and wondered if it was some kind of really limited release of just some bullshit! Anyone in the know on why that LP was so stupid expensive?

Looks like you’re right! Reads pretty clearly that it is a 12” x 12” print.

Woof on the $14.99 shipping from the ETID store. Fine print says ETID store variants are either /2000 or /1000 and the two alternate screen-printed covers (/250 each) are the more exclusives elements. If you’re looking for more limited run vinyl color, it ain’t direct from the band.

I’ve stopped collecting at least three times already.

Feels a lot like Bronx IV to me personally. Couple rippers, and a bunch of tunes I don’t see myself revisiting often. Generally a big fan so I’m always happy to buy and support, but so far this record doesn’t align with my personal tastes, which generally favors the more aggressive stuff. Totally subjective, hope other folks are stoked.

“If her abundantly successful new record signals one thing, it is this: Peppa is some pig.” Amen.

I lurk here but just want to saw thanks to anyone who posts here. I listen to all of them.

Sounds good buddy. DM me. $35 shipped.

Grabbed a Fear locally if anyone wants it. Saw a lot of chatter here.

Hahaha. This is too much! My expectations were zero so I’m not going to get bent out of shape over the $39. I gambled and lost, it happens. But what a fucking way to launch your new subscription. I can’t imagine torching any and all goodwill at the outset of your service bodes well for the future. Who is running this fucking thing! 😀🤡😀🤡

Yeah, I got like four back to back emails. I’m guessing they show up and you find out what it is when you open the package? Or did they announce?

That’s almost like $3 per inch.

Grabbed one for the yuks. I’m sure they’ll announce another membership tier soon.

Don’t need to imagine it homie.

This is the Bronx. Safe bet would be 3 - 8 months after the release date.

Hey, is it worth buying all five? Do you guys think Mars Volta is a consistent band?

Cedric has demonstrated the ability to be a big, big baby from time to time. The liner notes aren’t that shocking!

Does the tail ever get caught on the needle when you’re playing the 45s? Seems like you are asking for trouble.

PO Soon?

Figma is free. It’s technically a UI tool but does have some vector support. Adobe Illustrator is pretty much the tool still for branding. You can get a free trial but there is no really free equivalent. DM me if you have questions here or Insta.

I mean, it takes them 10 years to make eight songs. They kind of move on their on timeline. i’ve always assumed licensing is the culprit behind the lack on vinyl by a band that likes physical things. But who knows, it really does some like they actively enjoy trolling the fans.
