  1. Anyone get this message from CC Vinyl?

     

    "Thank you for your recent purchase of the Whiplash LP.  We have been informed that there is a manufacturer defect on side 1 of the album.  We are working on resolving this issue as quickly as possible.   As soon as we have additional information on replacements we will contact you.  Thank you for your patience in this matter."

     

    I just got it in the mail today so have not had a chance to listen to it / test it. Anyone know what the defect is?

  2. yea the shipping options are kind of a bummer no media mail :wacko:

    I jumped on it though, haven't preordered anything in a while

     

    That. It used to be, or at least my expectation is, that you should be be able to get stuff cheaper from the label directly vs anyone else but I find that it is often the case that labels do not offer media which is uncool

  3. Agreed... definitely one of my all-time favorites. Smarter than your average horror flick & oh-so gross. The final "orgy" sequence has left me forever scarred, but in a really good way :D. I hope it gets a blu-ray release. I use my dvd sparingly in case it never does.

     

    Totally :) The final scene still stands till this day as something totally unique and bound to blow the most hardcore horror/weird stuff film fan's mind (I've tested that throughly, on friends) I think along with They Live, this may be my favorite B from that era.

  5. I was unable to go to the first reunion show in LA and I'm bummed I missed it.

     

    I saw them open for Tool on that recent tour. They played 8-9 songs.

     

    I got tickets to both of their upcoming Bay Area shows so I can't wait to see those since they're headlining and there's no openers.

     

    Cool. That's actually the show I am thinking about hitting :)
