Sad Heart

Damn, the EU variants are rad. Especially the swirls variant. But I’m not paying that to get it shipped over here.

I really like these: (100) 12" Record Inner Sleeves - 3-Layers of Archival Quality, Anti-Static HDPE with Rice Paper Enclosed Insert for Extra Rigidity #12IM https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07MPL2QGD/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_JU4dGbN27Y5DT?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 They’re as good as MoFi but a little cheaper. 100 for $25 compared to 50 for $20. Helps when you’re needing to change out hundreds of discs at once.

Anyone that ordered the band exclusive variant get their copy yet?

Grabbed one. Thanks!

$13 for shipping is a hard pass. I’ll get indie or black.

So. Fucking. Happy.

I spoke with a USPS employee today. As you and everyone knows they got slammed from holiday stuff. But after the holidays apparently Covid went around like crazy at the sorting / distribution facilities. A good handful are even shut down. So depending on where you live and where your record is coming from it could end up at one that is closed and it’ll sit there til they have employees back from their quarantine time. LA has been hit hard. Any record I get from CA most likely sits for weeks. But yah, I figured they were backed up but what makes it even slower is that media mail is last in the

The 2009 pressing had a DR avg. of 12. This is up to 15. Looking forward to this even more now.

Black 180g sounds good to me. I’ll wait in case something cooler comes out. Not feeling cream. Maybe black translucent. But stoked on a new album.

Get Up Kids + Cave In + Glassjaw + Ghostface + ETID was epic. Such a fun show.

I had a first pressing. It was so damn gritty. Could never get it clean enough. Ended up selling it. Tempted to give this pressing a go.

So he doesn’t want to release pressing numbers, but a special thanks to himself on the back of the record is cool...

Right on. I texted Jonny about it.

Exactly.

$36? what the actual fuck.
