Sink or Swim = 59 Sound > Handwritten > Get Hurt > American Slang.  
 
Aside from a few songs, I don't like American Slang.

I have one recommendation but it has been informed by an anti-materialist stance
 
Don't buy things you will never play. Use it for what it was intended for and enjoy.
 
Hope that's helpful.

I would destroy it because Michael Jackson was a child molester.

Oh I know exactly how lucky I am, I just don't need to spend $35 on a single LP from 2003 to prove it.

I don't know why you guys are being weird about this, if it's worth the cost to you then have at it boys. I can live without this record, it's not that big of a deal and nobody bitched and demanded that everyone boycott this release or something, just said, "Damn, no thanks."

you guys are pathetic, I got the bundle with 60 dollar shipping and never even second thought about it. Please at least once stop crying about a 15 dollar shipping. thanks.

Let's start out by saying I'm not an audiophile.
My set up is as follows: a Marantz 6025 turntable through a Marantz MA 600 DC console stereo amplifier into a pair of Marantz SP 2050 floor standing speakers and a pair of Polk Audio 4A book shelf speakers.
To my ears. First listen on an A/B of SRC=A and MOV=B
A is audibly louder by a few decibals, louder low end over all (love the Bass on this record), sounds a bit heavier compressed...loud/full band with distorted guitars isn't as "in your face" in comparison to the emptier/quieter parts
B sounds more like the CD/Digital version
I'm not hearing an overt amount of distortion on A (which makes me feel better...I didn't miss that on my first few passes of this in casual listening....nothing like the original pressing of Thrice's "Artist In The Ambulance"). It is a hotter signal, but not horribly so.
Neither pressing sounds anywhere near what I would call "bad"....for about the same price SRC has a little bit more bottom end and compression, but it's also a double disc with bonus tracks! MOV is nice translucent green 180g with green packaging like the original CD, embossed cover, poly-lined inner sleeve, single disc, I like that MOV kept the booklet on the inside vs. SRC using part of the insert as the inner gatefold and making it a single sheet insert. Overall I think the MOV pressing is a little more clear sounding and I feel like the stereo spread is a little more pronounced (oddly?).
For both releases to be roughly the same price I'd pick up either one (both prices are a little high in my opinion, but I'm a huge fan of this record and now I own both....)
Anybody who hears a drastic audible difference might be jamming this on a far superior set up than mine? I don't think either pressing sounds bad at all.
Purchase, spin, and enjoy.

Still can't find any news on the reissue, but here's two free J. Robbins acoustic covers. Leatherface and Cop Shoot Cop songs.

+1 for posting a clip from a Plinkett review

Bigger than me who ordered back when he first put them up and still have yet to get my copy?
 
No. No you are not. 
 
I feel like GL after screening ep 1 for the first time:
 

gross.

LOL.
 
And to eradicate any room for speculation: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/lol

Maybe seeing some of this stuff this year. Hmmmm

I thought the SRC copy sounded fine, and I'm usually pretty critical.

OP delivers:

BRING THE DOWN VOTES!!
 

Why???

Definitely....I tried adding 20 million to my cart and it worked, haha!

Meant to give that a +1 and not downvote you!

I hate everything about this

Man you guys must REALLY love picture discs huh? Seems like almost every release is a pic disc. I understand they can loom pretty cool sometimes, but cmon, they can sound so shitty too

Ummm okay. I meant that the dude is a loser for threatening to kill himself over something so trivial. Like suicide is a joke or something. I thought you might have been kidding so I asked but I appreciate you being condescending.

Boxset #4 coming out in September
 

 
As expected, it includes Challenge for a Civilized Society and Leaves Turn Inside You + B sides

Maybe I can help:
When mastering the audio for the first pressing of this, it was mastered too loudly or too "hot." In doing this, it physically creates a wider gap between each groove. If there is a ton of low end and not enough space between the grooves, it causes negative audio reactions.
My guess is that this new pressing was cut much quieter, allowing for the grooves to remain closer together and keep the ending of each side further from the label.
This is how longer records are cut into single LPs. If you compare any 1xLP pressing to a future 2xLP repressing, the second pressing is generally louder with a more prominent low end.

I agree. This is the order that I have my digital copy in. It definitely flows better. A vinyl pressing would be awesome.
