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:

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

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

As much as I basically read all this as a rift between brothers unable to reconcile. I am curious how much Biggie helped keep them together and prevent their bullshit from getting in the way of the band because he's been with them for SOOO long, and with him gone, they lost those guardrails, even if the new manager is great. 

they went out on top which, in a way, is great, but we were all fucking robbed

my guess for single sleeve vs gatefold is the single sleeve stack more easily, whereas stacking gatefolders would aesthetically be less pleasing. not saying that's a defensible rationale, although (again, from a purely aesthetic standpoint, which a lot of this is based on) i totally understand it

amen. bought one of each—i have a feeling they'll be fairly limited but only because i don't know who's handling everything. ultimately i only want one so i want to see which variant i like more and then i'll sell the second one at cost to someone here. on a message board!!!

bumping a three-week-old bump of a four-year-old thread to wonder out loud if stand tall is the best EP, let alone debut EP, that i have ever heard

Stand tall should be in the smithsonian. 

I second this, plus I think Deep In A Hole is the best thing they’ve done. New Sidewalk is least favorite but still very enjoyable. This is coming from someone who still thinks Stand Tall should be in the Smithsonian.
Killer deal for this repress. Sounds better than the OG to me. Somebody better jump on it.

this reeks strongly of my 20th and 21st albums as well, i'd have to check my list to see how we stack up
 
original was 2LP, i'd be shocked if this wasn't the route that was taken again

two more variants: /1,500 on white in the TWY store and /1,000 in light blue in the hopeless store. won't be ready until april though.

TWY: https://www.thewonderyearsband.com/products/the-upsides-suburbia-10-year-anniversary-box-set-second-press

absolutely wild, but also very cool for the band, that preorders have come so far. can't blink without missing a signed copy, and 2500 units moved in less than an hour; meanwhile (ironically) the upsides preorders all came with signed posters and moved fewer than 500 units over multiple weeks

glad they brought back the I'M NOT SAD ANYMORE live shot shirt, just wish i was still 19 so i could wear it and not look like a dweeb

fixed this for you, no age qualifier

most pop punk is legit pretty bad. i think TWY was in a different stratosphere for about seven or eight years and one of the only pop punk bands worth listening to for most of that time

what does that even mean

HA, shiiiiit. i remembered i had watched a third one and revised my statement... but clearly did not edit very well!
