Is hot topic doing different colors?
I'm gonna drive to Santa Monica this weekend and exchange them in a store. That's the closest one. It will take me an hour and a half without traffic to get there. So 3 hours. Haha. Fuck Los Angeles traffic.

Just at first, but I wouldn't have noticed without your post. I run Denon TT, Marantz 2270 receiver, and replaced my old Cerwin Vegas with Polk 4 ways (no sub). I've been addicted to the loudness button since 1982, so popped it off and turned up the volume, left the bass EQ in the middle, and still sounded weak. I turned it up a couple notches and it was OK. Went back down on the volume and pushed the loudness button back in. Sounded fine the rest of the album. My daughter liked it (had not shared with her before), after that boom intro and the piano raindrops, she was fully engaged, gave it a 9/10 on the first pass. She wanted a little more keys but that is her instrument.
Minimal to no grit on the Haze variant, easy clean, just slight surface noise on the first 10 to 15 seconds (I use a carbon fiber brush and blue anti-static gun as well after cleaning, since my wife keeps the humidity way down). Another cleaning and it should be perfect. Best Haze variant in a LONG time.
#297 Clear Haze
#344 Splatter
must be legit
props to Forbsie, Scott, Damascus and all involved in this superb production!

That was a totally different situation. Ross was new to everyone at the time, was completely unproven as a record label owner and had no track record. He fucked up, and I think he'll willingly admit that. He's since put out dozens of records with all sorts of bands, active and broken up, big and small, and it's clear he's gotten better at what he does, because people continue to work with him and promote the product he creates.
Would I reissue something on vinyl without telling the band? No. But clearly, that's not what Ross did here. And the only reason people care is because it's 1)an active band and 2)someone who's easily reachable—aka not Music On Vinyl, 4 Men With Beards, Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs, etc. All of those companies buy the rights to releases all the time and reissue them with all sorts of bells and whistles, likely without the artist's involvement. Do you think those limited colored pressings Newbury Comics are doing are signed off on by the artist 100% of the time? Doubtful.
It's an artist's job to create art however they deem appropriate. It's a record company's job to sell that art however they deem appropriate. As someone who has nearly 15 years in "the industry," let me tell you that band members are typically the most out-of-the-loop people when it comes to their own careers, which is why they react emotionally and publicly to things like this instead of trying to politely and professionally get to the bottom of it behind the scenes. Such is the creative mind, I suppose.
I like Cartel. I like this record. I like Ross. I bought a copy, which puts money in Ross' pockets, who already put money into Cartel's pockets, because the licensing fee he paid to Epic most likely included royalties. There is no loser in this situation, except people who want to pretend they understand how the music industry works but have literally less than 1% of a clue.

jameswiersema reacted to jase in The Ex-Girlfriend (or Boyfriend) Thread
A girl I met on myspace many many moons ago. Our birthdays were close, so we decided to meet for the first time at a pub that had live music 5 nights a week, and celebrate both our birthdays(lame as fuck exscuse to get laid). Half way through the night I borrow my mates house keys and take the girl back there(about a 2 minute walk from the pub). We fuck, we go back to the show enjoy the rest of the eve, then go back to her place and fuck again.
We end up dating for a few months. All good times. One day I notice a package for a pregnancy test on the bathroom floor. I enquired about to be told it was her room mates. Eh, whatever. All good. A few weeks later we break up, no fights or arguments. Just both went our seperate ways.
A few weeks after that, a friend from high school is dating the same girl. WTF. that pissed me off a bit, but whatever. No cheating involved, so I figure. Let them have their fun. Adults and all that.
They break up after a few months and he's having a party to celebrate. Apparently they didn't end on good terms. So the party is going well, bands in one corner, beers being drank on the roof. As the nights winding down I kinda sneak off and take a shit on the inside of his oven door. Revenge shit, is the best kind of shit! Close it back up, and leave as calmly as I arrived.
Next morning I get a call from him...did you shit in my oven? Laughing uncontrolably I say yes, because it's hilarious. Bad news for him, he was hungover, and wanted to make breakfast, turned the oven on to heat up, and baked my turd in the process.
Again, HILARIOUS.
It was during this phone call he told me why they broke up. He paid for an abortion. He wanted to have the kid, she didn't.
I never told him about the pregnancy test I saw on the floor that she attributed to her room mate. I couldn't leave him thinking he paid for my abortion AND a kitchen smelling of burnt bog.
