    achillesstand7 got a reaction from mrewest in PO NOW: DEFTONES- Ohms (9/25)   
    I really like the song, but I’ve always thought that the guitar solo seemed really out of place for a Deftones song, and it would be better without it.

    it's from LA. It did not show up on my informed delivery either which was really weird. Not in my incoming packages or scanned mail.

    It looks like they’re available for preorder on Amazon, so I’m sure they’ll be available everywhere.

    Imagine all labels adapting this mentality.  Flippers would increase their resale price to make a wider profit margin if $40 LPs were the new norm, and it’s not hard to fathom the cycle ramping up from there.  Picture someone like Mondo or VMP implementing a direct rarity-to-price ratio... where they’re aware that a $30 exclusive is guaranteed to sell out in hours and fetch big bucks on Discogs shortly after, so they assign a $70 price-tag to “offset” the difference.  With this approach, everyone is punished.  You’re essentially saying that it’s “business savvy” for true fans and vinyl enthusiasts to pay an extra $10+ per record, to make up for the minority of greedy assholes.  It’s disturbing to me that anyone’s grasp of the hobby could be that impaired in the year 2020.  I hope and pray you never have any kind of influence or input on any release I may be interested in down the road.

    Thanks to all of you who have listened so far. We are super excited about the band and album. We hope to get physical copies available for Pre-order soon. We actually had test presses in-hand before the world shut down. 
     
    So yeah, Friday = Listen on all streaming services.  If you are inclined to support us, pick up merch from my store and/or the DW stores. Keep in mind that on Friday Bandcamp will be forfeiting their profit and giving everything to the labels/bands who supply them with content: Ie: Buy the album there on Friday to help us all.. 
     
    Thanks again.

    Reddit is a gold mine:
     
    ”A few questions: are these multiple copies of the same album, but in either different colored vinyl or different pressings? If so, are any of them limited pressings (ala Tertia)?  I am just wondering, given how hard and expensive I have found purchasing records to be nowadays...if this is something more common, it starts to make sense why things are getting harder and harder to acquire. I am not angry per-say, but it does make it more clear why prices are so high on the secondary market.”
     
    Yes. My Caspian collection is the reason for the bubble.

    As someone who has been going to shows in Denver for the past 10 years a lot of singers have trouble with the high altitude and they have trouble with their voice sometimes, so if the recording is from a Denver show that's probably why his voice sounds rough, I wouldn't know though because I didn't sign up for this record and can't listen to it, but thought I would share my opinion on the topic because i am bored. Also I missed that show and regret it

    Also, before anyone jumps on my shit, I am not advocating that you splurge your “government payout” on vinyl.  Be responsible and plan accordingly, etc. etc. etc.  I’ve cut way back on vinyl in general this last month, just as a precaution. You’re all adults and shouldn’t need any posts chiming in about how to save or spend your money.  It’s ridiculous that I’d even write this paragraph, but after so many years of seeing people sweat whether or not a $20 pre-order will “last until payday”, I figured I’d err on the side of caution and throw this out there.
