^ Well this escalated quickly....so are Interpunk orders going to be cancelled?

Balking at the price as well...

Haha, realized that was prob. the case after I posted. Good luck!

Uhhhh, clear with splatter is still available?

If anyone goes and can hook me up I'd really appreciate it!

Bumping because more people need to hear this record!

Made for a very entertaining read at work yesterday! Stoked to revisit the record and these demos today.

Started a thread for that record here: http://boards.vinylcollective.com/topic/129869-mastersystem-dance-music-members-of-frightened-rabbit-editors/?tab=comments#comment-2796792

Just bumping this so hopefully more people see it and check out the record.

I'm having a hard time dealing with the loss of Scott Hutchison. One of the only things helping right now is listening to his music. “I thought it would be interesting to play around with the themes of restlessness and dissatisfaction on this album, both as a counterpoint to the exuberance of the music and as an obvious reference to the angst and tension I heard in the grunge and fuzz of my teenage years. This is not the angst of a teenager, however. This is the anxiety of a man in his mid-30s, and for a lot of this record I found myself wrestling with the ways in which I am not quite doing life right, in spite of appearing to lead a relatively joyful, playful and artistic existence.” To be fair, that doesn’t sound too far off from what he’s long done in Frightened Rabbit, and the debut Mastersystem single, “Notes on a Life Not Quite Lived”, even feels like a Rabbit track at first. Once the overdrive is turned up on the guitars and the drums crack out like gun shots, however, the song reveals itself to be far grittier than anything Hutchison has been involved with before. Take a listen below. https://consequenceofsound.net/2018/02/frightened-rabbit-editors-minor-victories-members-form-new-band-mastersystem-share-debut-single-stream/ Record is out now and really fucking good.

Based on what?

May not matter. The inner sleeve that holds the record has the sunset on one side and mountain on the other so you can swap what shows through the die cut

I can't believe just how large it is. Great packaging all around.

WTF happened to this place. Album release day and I had to scroll to the 3rd page to find this thread?!

Also on Spotify.

$27 is fuckin' highway robbery for a single LP with or without a CD... Would've ordered it if it was a normal price.

Yarn, McCafferty's sophomore album, will come out on Triple Crown Records on March 23rd. “One of the definitions of ‘yarn’ is a long, rambling story that is incoherent and just sort of goes on,” Hartkop explains. “I think that really defines McCafferty. No matter how many times we tried to put it down, it’s come back up. The band wasn’t done with us. It was calling us back for a reason.” Pressing Information First Press: 300 - Gold with Red Splatter (Pre-Order Exclusive) 500 - Red/Gold/Purple Tri-Color (Wax Bodega / Tour Exclusive) 1500 - Red (Online and Tour Variant) Track Listing: 1.

"That rabbit/guy from The Gaslight Anthem is CRAZY!"

In for the book/vinyl. Happy to support this band.

I love this record but $40 is steep.
