Just came here to share that Sliver is in a V8 ad lol. I'm happy for them.

 

Hopefully we're still getting another album. Chadwick has been really quiet on his personal account as of lately.

The couple solo tracks he dropped really did nothing for me.  That last hundredth single was good though.

Reminder that Hopesfall The Satellite Years 2.0 goes up at 1pm EST on EVR.

I hear there's a "handful" of alt covers going up. In case anyone is wondering the alt cover was $45 USD at FF. 

Also the album is up on streaming services and sounds brilliant! I'm hearing little nuances that Ive never heard before in the songs! 

Had to sell my friday ticket so missed out on buying it in person. Luckily snagged one at the drop and have a line on the friends and family alt cover. stoked they did they remaster on DSPs as well. 

Dude. Few is the only album for me from HIL that doesn't fully enthrall me, but god damn this record is good. The singles weren't my favorite (Outside of Sour) But there's so much proper hooks and riffage on this record. 

Also them having Matt ryan tobin do the album artwork for the past two records has me excited as well. 

It's still showing the splatter available for me..

favorite record from them and hella excited about this.

I'm pretty sure that is like 1-click in the whatever software they use for the orders. You are right that it has to be done manually but as neither of these records are in stock they could just ship out when the latter comes, while saving on packaging material and resources. In the past fat, rfc, topshelf and etc could do it. It's just the question of the will i think. 

I mean that's an assumption... I ship out merch and any changes after the order is done does cause issues enough that it backs up the entire process..... There's typically not a magical "combine this order with that order" button on online stores on the backend..  I've had  to run a search on the name and then make a specific note that two orders are related..... So to your point, I bet a separate software exists to help manage that, but I wouldn't expect a small record label to have that ability but it doesn't hurt to ask.

would you guys think they'd be willing to combine orders? I'm afraid they are not. It was not best idea for even them to put them up separetely packaging-wise and the fact that 90% of the buyers will be the same .... 

 

Edit: already got the answer of a no. I wonder why is it so hard to do this... 

I mean. i get it to a point. it adds complication to an assembly line to find each and every order that needs to be combined. If it's just one or two people having do all the work, anything adding to the already limited bandwidth of the individual isn't worth it typically.

I got both and only have shipping info for the later variant. I haven't received a damn thing for any FF preorder which is a tad frustrating, as I am getting impatient

wow! Neck of the Woods is my favorite haha - It's what made me a fan of theirs. The only album of theirs that doesn't do anything for me is Better Nature. However, I liked Widow's Weeds.

I haven't opened my copy from the band yet...but was the signed insert inside?

 

Yes Signed insert is inside

Stoked to snag one, but hella sad that I didn't know this was coming down the pipeline and missed the TP and limited to 30

Lowered is one of my favorite songs to come out this year. As for the rest of the record I liked some songs, but I didn't like the ones where Greg is singing and sounds like Ozzy. Maybe that's just me but I wasn't a fan of that vocal style.

Lowered is my favorite vocal performance from both Greg and Reba.

So apparently the NJ FF fest variants aren't going to be in until august so my HIL variants are held up b/c they were bought at the same time, so I'm assuming The chariot FF variant is gonna have the same troubles

Both variants have shipped for me.

did you get the furnace fest variant as well or just the latter variants?

25 minutes ago, N8TRU said:

That's most likely the one I was referring to. No official word on the details with it yet but I'm keeping an eye out.

Ahhh i missed your statement on that. that's good to know.

So in the images on their linktree there's a fourth variant but I can't find any details on it anywhere.

it's up!

Finally got a chance to listen to this today. Sounded better than I expected but not as good as I hoped. For being under 20 minutes per side, I expected less IGD. Clarity and dynamic range are uneven throughout but never amazing. There's definitely a source-inherent crunch to this album, and I think they did a pretty good job of making it listenable in the transition to vinyl, but it's still definitely there. I was listening via headphones, so maybe speakers will be more forgiving. For a long awaited pressing, I think it could've been worse, but I'd like to think it could have been better too, even considering source limitations. I have a yellow copy, so I'd be curious to hear any comments about the quality of the other variants.

I listened to the green copy today. noticed a good amount of surface noise, loved how punchy the bass is.

I’ll buy it 100%

You gotta blue? Currently holding out on selling it outright to find the blue. 

I got an extra pink coming in that if anyone has a blue and wants to trade for it plus some cash, please hit me up.

they apparently didn't update my address when i send an email asking them to, said it was delivered today, post office didn't fwd it to my new address and I drove by my old house and it wasn't on the porch..... reached out to cust support but don't have high hopes given how unresponsive CCA has been in the past 

EDIT: I stand fully corrected. Owner of old house texted me and it showed up today. all is well 

Final Single dropped

It's so rare when a two solid color splatters actually look good. Wish bands would stick with a clear base and opaque splatter

Next Single Dropped

But where's Suck Out the Poison? Sheesh! 

At this point HIL has been selling out of all vinyl released so I wouldn't surprised if Unoriginal eventually drops SOTP.
