FULL BAND TOUR STARTS THIS WEEK WITH ADDITIONAL SHOWS & UPDATED UK TOUR DATES
Party God Andrew W.K. is thrilled to announce his first new full length album in over a decade. The LP showcases Andrew's signature style of blasting triumphant rock music, with an ever more epic expanses of energizing emotional ecstasy. "I'm going for the sound of pure, unadulterated power; every emotion, every thought, every experience, every sensation, every fear, every joy, every clarity, every confusion, every up, every down... all extruded and concentrated into one thick syrup of super life-force feeling, and then psychically amplified by the celebratory spirit of glorious partying," explains Andrew. The new release is out March 2, 2018 via Sony Music worldwide. Album title and cover art to follow.

The world needs further down the spiral pressed.

I bet he's trying to time it with the TP soundtrack drops.

Probably to no ones surprise, I found the Kevin Gray cut slightly better than the definitive cut by John Golden. The definitive version is very good. DOn't get me wrong. I though the KG cut was a bit more robust/fuller.  I did a blind comparison of both records going track by track. I found that consistently noted preferring the KG cut, but to be fair,  sometimes it was a toss up (VPI HW-19jr w/ a Grado blue on a vintage Marantz 2220 with Polk speakers).
 
I think if you have the KG cut, you can pass on the definitive. Otherwise, get the KG cut if you don't own one, but if you have to get the definitive version (like because of a discount code or whatever), you will probably be happy with that as well. 
 
The Black to Black/KG cut packaging is a bit different. Inners are a thicker paper. Spine is a touch wider. Colors are muted. The DE is closer to the original pressing, Colors are richer. inners are the thin glossy paper (and do not come with the discs in them to avoid seem splits). The original pressing had the boldest colors on the packaging and are a richer yellow/brown with an orange hue. I don't have my original CD anymore, but I remember that being the same. These 2 new pressings seem to favor more yellow in the colors rather than the warmer orange end. 
 
 
Anyway those are my thoughts on the new DWS pressings.  

Up on Matador now:

Dino Jr says hello
 
But I'm afraid Billy's heavy hand in production has been a recent turn off for me.   He needs someone to help edit his vision and he definitely needs Jimmy. 

On another, non-price tip, can I just say how much this Prick LP rules. I haven't heard it since college (circa 1997) and it is as batshit as I remember. Too bad TR doesn't have the major label clout to get stuff like this out thereally these days. No one would take a chance on NIN today, let alone one of his insane pet projects like this or Manson.

Saw someone post an email reply from WASTE on another board that the boxsets should be shipping out next week, so that's kinda cool.

i'm up for new music. would be cool if they've been pressing the vinyl already too and it won't be a 6 month wait like Not The Actual Events.

In case you missed this one...Bullmoose reopened orders for the  Catherine Wheel - Ferment MOV reissue

There's some other things that I would post but it might be a bit spoilery for some. If you want to look more closely at the poster and another thing I found, here's an imgur link: http://imgur.com/a/s4dvI?
