toxicity

haha. for a while i had a google docs of upcoming shows for a bunch of my friends.

My friends and I all have a shared Google Calendar for shows.  Smartest idea we ever had.

I must be the only one that likes their last three albums WAAAAYYYYY more than their first three.  I think Censored Colors is their worst by far, album bores me to death every time I try to listen to it.

At any rate, I'm excited to hear the new album, but based on that new single I think I'll hold off on the preorder.

I pre-ordered it on Amazon for now.  $15.  Wish I could get that 7" but I'm not paying $40 for it.

There's 500 of the 7" and only 300 of the Starburst variant, and the only way to get each is in the $40 bundle.  They'll have 200 extras.  And with No Gods, the covers 7" that was exclusive to the bundle was eventually sold separately.

Meh.  No Gods was pretty disappointing.  I'll wait until I can hear the whole thing before I buy.

I don't know if I like this whole "mods-telling-us-to-stay-on-topic" thing.

 

Let us go where the wind takes us, Rambo.

"Shitty Rambo?  Is he any good?"

"He sucks."

"So then it's not just a clever name!"

If I'm reading it correctly, they're sort of (but not fully) acknowledging that the subscription didn't sell well and that they won't be doing any more subscription exclusive variants.  To make up for that, they're extending the discount benefits.

Sucks for those who were looking forward to the exclusives.  Don't know how they ever expected to sell 250 subscriptions with such a wildly varied selection of albums though.

Well shit.  I had one in my cart and it sold out when I was creating an account.  Ah well...

Uh, did this already sell out?  Doesn't seem to exist in the store anymore.

TDAGARIM >>> Deja > YFW >>>>>>>>>>>> Daisy

TDAG is by far their greatest album.  I loved Deja and YWF way back when, and I still throw them on from time to time, but mostly for nostalgia's sake.  Daisy is a turd.

A couple of mine are relatively inexpensive for being "white whales" but they always seem to slip through my fingers...

Rx Bandits - ...And The Battle Begun

No Trigger - Canyoneer

I liked this quite a bit on first listen.  Never really listened to these guys much, but decided to pick this up while the color version was still available.  Glad I did.

Thanks guys.  I'm not sure what happened (or how I missed the other series of emails), but they withdrew the money three times on accident, and then refunded two of the charges.  So I should be good.

Yesterday I got two emails from PayPal saying that the band refunded my money. Anyone else get a similar set of emails or know what's up? Their website says they've reached their goal.

anyone know how long this will last? the upsides should be in there pretty soon, which i want to get with BNO's trainwreck...

Unless I'm going blind, I don't see Trainwreck in the vinyl section anymore.  Which leaves me with only one record I want and can't really justify getting in on this sale right now.

Don't pick any of these other nerds, pick me!

Wow, this is embarrassing.  As much as I enjoy this band, I'm not having any part of this, and some of these prices aren't just absurd, they're insulting - $5 for a sticker, $15 for a download, $30 for a CD, and $50 for a record!?  I kind of don't want to support these guys at all anymore.

Victory has such a horrible reputation, I can't imagine why any band would ever sign with them.  Reverend Horton Heat just signed with them, and all I could think was that they'd lost their minds and that this was the beginning of the end for them.

Random bump... I just picked this album up about a week ago and have been spinning the hell out of it.  So fucking good.  Hope these guys roll through here soon.

I'm waiting on it too.  I wasn't blown away by the last album, and they roll through Seattle pretty frequently.

The Thermals have signed to Saddle Creek and are putting out their new album, Desperate Ground, on April 16, 2013.

I got my Deathwish shipping confirmation the other day.  Hoping I get this soon, I NEED IT!!!

I would totally get in on a raffle

Damn, now I kinda wish I ordered the splatter.  That thing looks rad.

who cares if the dl code doesn't work, thats why we have the internet, you paid for the record, go find a download

You think I didn't try that?  All water under the bridge anyway, Justin was great about it and hooked me up with a download.  You can unbunch your panties now.

Just got my shipping notification too!  To the eBayzzzz!!!
