GIVE US VOLCANO AND S/T YOU COWARDS!!!

With all the new releases coming from Asbestos Records lately, I was expecting them to announce a Westbound Train release. So stoked that Transitions is getting a pressing though! This gives me hope we might get Come and Get It someday too. Hell, I'd buy a whole Westbound Train boxset!

I think Joyce Manor is the band I own the most Coke Bottle Clear records from. This will make #4.

Doesn't that make you the one doing all the "virtue signaling" here? You don't care... yet here you are, compelled to lecture people you disagree with. Find better uses for your time, friend. Also, prancing around the internet complaining about "virtue signaling" is a major dogwhistle. Just so you know.

I SAID I WASN'T GOING TO ASK HOW MUCH SHE SPENT ON IT!!! /s

My wife got me a white copy for Xmas (after we'd agreed to not do gifts this year, goddammit). I will never ask how much she paid for it, not that it matters because I'm never selling it. This record is so fucking good, and the newest band that my wife and I are equally stoked on.

Yeah, I finally got around to listening to this about 2 weeks ago, and it hit like a ton of bricks... I fucking miss this band.

Reading that tracklist is like reading the lyrics to a Menzingers song. I'll probably stream this a couple of times, but this song isn't selling me on a $30 preorder.

Well clicking on that "Off With Their Heads" link sure was anti-climactic...

I don't have screenshots, but it was supposedly written by the other woman in the story, I believe her name was Stacy and she was dating Ray at the time. In it, she picked apart the victim's behavior in very much the same way you just did (congrats on thinking the exact same way as every other rape apologist in this toxic scene). Masked Intruder shared the post without comment, only to delete it and post this bullshit after receiving blowback. The post and comments under it should hopefully clear your personal burden of proof that TBR's post existed. Bottom line, Ray is not a safe person for women to be around, and the reason this shit never changes is these guys get their scene-bros to back them up, as you've done, congrats on fulfilling your duty. The band was quietly dropped from this year's Fest lineup. Look at their fb for about a week after 7/21, the date the podcast came out. All the comments were turned off on their posts, but not on the post about the podcast so they could do damage control. The band managed to semi-successfully sweep this under the rug. And Fat still chose to put out their new album.

The band's response was trash too. They took it down, but it was 100% victim-blaming and slut-shaming. I'm done with them.

Ray was accused of sexual assault in a recent podcast. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Js7hIPOozFk

Probably quite a few canceled preorders. I know I canceled mine.

Someone had to remind us just how triggered they were.

Just snagged a copy, so the remaining batch would appear to be up!

Definitely don't spend too much on a copy, iirc the original pressing sounded like shit.

I mean, if someone really only wanted the second LP, what do I care?

"Ugh, NOFX is really phoning it in this time, better just buy 2 copies." 😆

I really want a MFATGGs boxset.

Can confirm. I'm a Thrice superfan, never cared for MO, happened to luck out and snag one of these. The Thrice cover is fine, but the MO side just reaffirmed my distaste for that band. Ended up selling it for $250 on Discogs. I listed it at that price as a joke.

Just got my boxset yesterday! This thing is massive! Like, seriously, it won't fit in an Expedit/Kallax, it's over over 14" wide and almost 15" tall. I assume it's oversized because of the boxset cover, which is the keyboard photo set behind a plastic cover with "The Aggrolites Essentials" printed on it. The plastic cover even came with a protector sheet, like electronics often have. The box includes foam inserts to secure the vinyl in place within the oversized box. Haven't had a chance to spin any of these yet, so I can't comment on sound quality. But overall, I'm stoked with how this turned out and I'm glad I jumped on preordering this. The shipping was hilarious though. It came packaged in a perfectly sized box for the boxset...which was then thrown into a massive cardboard box with a tiny bit of packing paper thrown in. It's totally unscathed though! 😎

Off-topic, but since everyone was talking about the game before, I figure it can't hurt to add this: https://www.ign.com/articles/scott-pilgrim-vs-the-world-the-game-2021-release-date-announced The "complete" edition is getting re-released in January with all DLC. If it's more than $10, I'll probably wait for a sale.

Then I guess we're all making fun of the half of you that wasn't joking. If you're complaining about this, then you must be new to the LTJ vinyl game. We're all still clamoring for our Anthem and B is for B-Side represses; the former has been out of print for well over a decade and the latter was never pressed. Add to this the fact that they've frequently done elaborate vinyl releases in the past, so this is not new. Yet you're (half) upset that their new album is being kept readily available? Damned if you do, damned if you don't, I guess.

Well fuck. I was going to pass on this because I already have every LP that's available, but I forgot they were single LPs with cut tracklists. Goodbye, $175+shipping. Now someone needs to press Westbound Train's discography.

It's not Volcano or S/T, but this is up for preorder: https://boards.vinylcollective.com/topic/146728-gatsbys-american-dream-modern-man/
