oh man fingerprints i used to go there all the time when i lived in socal. i also was checking discogs all morning but bad timing i guess. in any sense thank you so much for your help!!

any help on TWY would be greatly appreciated. really all i was looking for. (not holding my breath on bluey and i have the original press anyway so it'd be a luxury buy.)

annnnd sold out. not sure how many were left, i'm guessing they were whatever overrun was remaining. hope i was able to help a few of you!

there are probably old threads for these somewhere but not worth finding. "don't let me cave in" /500(?) was a preorder giveaway with suburbia. "came out swinging" /250 was given away with some AP magazine orders i think. they are hard to find, but both are at cold cuts for $20 each. you're very welcome: https://www.coldcutsmerch.com/collections/twystore/products/the-wonder-years-came-out-swinging-7 https://www.coldcutsmerch.com/collections/twystore/products/the-wonder-years-dont-let-me-cave-in-7

DM'd DM'd i'll take another look tomorrow and post a comprehensive list!

hey y'all, just going through all my old childhood shit and i finally got to the box where all my old band shirts are. these are mostly circa 2003-2012 when i was still small enough to fit mediums (and smalls when i was in, like, middle school). i'm fat now and it would be fun to keep all these and pretend one day i'll magically sew them into a band shirt quilt but it just ain't gonna happen. 6x saosin CLAIMED BUT NOT PAID, FEEL FREE TO INQUIRE 1x anthony green SOLD 2x chiodos CLAIMED BUT NOT PAID, FEEL FREE TO INQUIRE 3x the fall of troy SOLD 3x say anything CLAIMED BUT NOT PAID, FEEL FREE TO INQUIRE 2x the sound of animals fighting 1x the dear hunter 1x puig destroyer 1x a day to remember 1x the dangerous summer 1x this time next year 1x cinematic sunrise 2x? every time i die 3x? the wonder years 2x? the dangerous summer 2x? odd project 1x true things anyway if this is remotely interesting to you let me know. just please know in advance the shirts are in various states of wear and disrepair based on how much i loved them over the years. some are still nearly brand new, some are ragged as hell. thanks, alex

man the original high and driving version of "baby girl" is an absolute all-timer. not to be a nostalgic lil bitch but it's still one of his best songs to this day

i didn't know this was a "thing," for me this is my first time even entertaining the idea. but based on what soupy said at the beginning of the album teaser, it just sounds like it's near the end of the road. i would be more than happy to be wrong. but i also wouldn't blame them, they've been doing this for almost 20 years

if it weren't for the state of the industry at this point i'd be up in arms about $40 for an LP + exclusive 7". but given some gatefold double LPs sell for $40 straight up, this is fine. besides, this band deserves it, especially if this is their swan song, which it sounds like it very well could be. this band changed my life, i can throw them a few extra bucks for that. wyatt's song is ok, oldest daughter is good, summer clothes is genuinely great and i'm not being a dad rock shoegazy old fart about this; also, to me, summer clothes always sounded like it could go on much longer than it does (like, it doesn't feel like it should end when it does, it feels like it should crescendo on forever, bathing in the warm hug of that bass tone), so the fact there's a 7-minute version makes perfect sense frankly i don't have super high hopes for the album. sister cities was a dud for me, and while it sounds better than sister cities already, i don't think it'll reach the heights that no closer to heaven did—which, itself, did not reach the heights that the greatest generation did. just a slow fade out.

record on a flat surface (in inner sleeve), a blanket or something soft for protection, a 45-pound gym plate. i had a record come warped as shit once, like a goddamn pringle, and this did the trick. books ain't gonna cut it unless you have a couple dozen college textbooks

incredible gif. thank you i think if i had to ask my wife (clinical psychologist) what she thought, based on all of this, i feel like it would be something along the lines of: if your beef with your brother is so deep-seated that you can't peacefully coexist, you will probably see anything that resembles taking sides as an affront. as in, steve and andy doing what's best for the band—which means supporting keith, but also supporting jordan—the latter of which, to keith, is an act of betrayal, no matter how benign. just seems like a toxic sibling relationship. but i can also see keith is EXTREMELY sensitive and vulnerable, because when i read the band's statement about keith leaving tour, honestly my first thought was, "that's dope that he is prioritizing his mental health and the band is supporting him." it didn't cross my mind for a second there was something wrong! i just thought keith needed a breather and the band was on board. it would've set a great example tbh. we all need boundaries. but he came out swinging instead, and the writing was on the wall from that moment forward edit: also i am pretty, uhh, unreceptive, i suppose, of people talking about "their" truth. that's not my cup of tea!
