Opinions and science are not the same thing and that's all I have to add.

More so it's a working relationship that one of the parties didn't want to continue. He's not cancelled.

Weird choice by Fat to put the box set link exclusively on their parler account.

I received an email yesterday with a dropbox link to the livestream. It says it will be available for 1 week. I haven't had a chance to watch it yet though.

achillesstand7 got a reaction from oxeneer in PO: Cult Of Luna "Cult of Luna" and "The Beyond" Repress
I’m not exactly sure, but it charged me $18 international shipping for all three, so I’m assuming it’s shipping from somewhere in Europe?

Eternal Kingdom and Self-Titled are also discounted to $14 and $12, respectively. I didn't have any of those so I picked up all three.

I’m actually pretty surprised this one sold out so quickly. I ordered it, and like this album quite a bit, but I thought it was generally regarded as one of their weaker albums, so I thought it’d probably stick around for a week or two at least. But, good for them.

Thanks. Sound quality is really good on this stream. Hopefully I can catch the Q&A later on somehow.

achillesstand7 reacted to simple_torture in Official PEARL JAM Thread: Catch-All for all releases and related and 10C entitlement shenanigans
The first 9 vault releases (plus the 2 shows included in the first two album reissue box sets) were never-before-officially released recordings--some shows had high-quality bootlegs available, but not official-release-quality. So those releases were new for everybody, no matter what format you got it in. This is already available digitally and on CD, so it's more of a vinyl reissue than a vault release.
Edit: To be clear, I'll be excited to get it, but for people who don't do vinyl, it's not something new or exciting, I get that.

achillesstand7 reacted to Derek™ in PO Now: pg.lost - Oscillate
Yeah... I may personally opt for Tertia over WS, but otherwise that is a damn fine list. I hate that I’m becoming the heh, they don’t make ‘em like they used to dad cliche of post-rock. I’d always roll my eyes when my old man would scoff at newer bands and insist that nothing really competes with the classics. I know we’re shrinking that notion down to 1 genre but I feel it so much. Even if bands like Mogwai and Godspeed (and definitely GIAA) are not releasing albums on par with the quality they set a decade+ ago, some of those earlier albums are still timeless to me and what I consider to be the pinnacle of the genre, regardless of what those same bands are outputting today. There’s a reason the albums have become a landmark or standard in discussions. Every once in a while there’s a newer post-rock band or scene that does something memorable or enticing, but so, so, so much of it is Gumbocore or prime for A Thousand Arms’ distro, and it does little for me.
I feel like that wave of post-rock you’re referring to... there’s not a ton out there that compares. Slint, etc. are considered grandfathers of the genre, but as far as crescendos, quiet-loud dynamics, and other post-rock tropes that have been done to death, I think it’s a blessing to thrive in a lifetime where that all existed, was relevant for a time, and is still easily accessible. Born too early and it’s all experimental, new-age noise. Born too late and you’re stuck with the Dunk! Fest roster. I’m not claiming that I was listening to Mogwai when I was 9 years old, but the genre was really exploding and pioneering new musical ground when I was a teen, at my hungriest stage of music exploration. And for that I’ll always consider myself lucky.

Also, I asked Mike, mwY’s manager, on twitter if they were planning on releasing all of their albums in this 2LP 45rpm format, and he said, “that’s the plan.”
