Sad Heart

That’s less of a coupon and more of a referral code. So you get $20 yourself. 

Dig it, and looking forward to the show, but still not paying $33 for it. Variants are cool at least. If it was $24ppd I’d bite.

Haven’t listened yet, but I can’t justify paying $33 for 15 minutes of music. 

Apparently this board is Google search for this guy.

Numero is going to be putting out a lot of great stuff from that vein this summer: Chino Horde, Boys Life, Tsunami, Thumbnail, Boilermaker, and more. So keep an eye out for that. Other bands you should check out (on Numero): Unwound, Bedhead, Native Nod, Bedhead, Codeine, Indian Summer, Current, Bedhead.

My thoughts exactly. I mean hell, Jonny and I were talking about how Tertia releases had damn gold foil on it, among other ‘cool’ packaging extras. The new owners of TC are out of their mind. I’m curious if the packaging designer shopped for the printer or if TC did it, and didn’t shop around or just approved it at a ridiculous price. I’d say ‘oh they probably are just being greedy assholes and marked it up a lot’, but I know that the packaging is expensive so they’re just incompetent and got taken for a ride. I’m curious if they found a new printer and they got a new customer price and were dumb enough to approve it. I believe the band are gonna make a response to this, per my last convo with them, cause this release is too bad for them to not address it. Triple Crown is sending me replacement discs, but sending it in the same sleeves I think. I asked for just regular sleeves and no ‘deluxe’ packaging, but said they can’t do special requests cause of ‘volume’. Thanks, SCP, for the standard macro responses in emails (classic Zendesk bullshit answers). 

Got mine in today. This is just insultingly bad. So first off the PVC sleeve has a strip of glue on it, so once you peel the tab up that’s pretty much it. You couldn’t even close it again if you wanted. The packaging was just a mailer so the PVC sleeve is creased and folded anyway; good thing it’s being discarded - but I paid for it. Secondly this packaging is basically two sleeves. That’s it. There’s no gatefold. The embossed white cover that makes you think it’s a gatefold via the picture is just an embossed sleeve. It’s not even wide enough for it to count as housing for two records because that’s not what it is. The other sleeve is just a standard sleeve made out of the same card stock / paper. The discs are definitely under 180g. I don’t have a scale, but I can tell. Lastly the wording on the site made it seems the entire release was mastered, but the wording on the PVC clarifies just the unreleased songs were “mastered for vinyl”. 
 
Even better is that is the most marred record I’ve ever received. It’s full of scuffs and scratches. Those paper sleeves really did a great job…
How Tc could charge anything over $25 for this is beyond me. And that’s putting aside how I’m going to need replacement discs. Wow. If I didn’t need this to keep up my collection I’d do a return / charge back.

Looks like it's 40 bucks.  Here's the linktree, bunch of different variants coming based on it.  Most of these should go live shortly (Closed Casket already is):
The Dusk In Us Deluxe (dthw.sh)

But to play devil’s advocate, I am also underwhelmed by this, and don’t think it’s worth $65. Just wanted to give you guys context that this was more so a TC issue and not a band issue.

$25 for an LP and pretty much $7 per 7” is great for todays pricing. Kerplunk with the bonus 7” via Adeline was $26 in 2014.

Once they found out it was gonna cost that much they tried to figure out how to make it more fair, cause they weren’t picturing a $65 price point. But there is more stuff in the pipeline that they are happy about, and you’ll be. Can’t say much but they got the rights to the Cabot show so that’s coming soon(ish). 

Deluxe version dropping at noon. Went all out on the packaging so it’ll be a little pricey, but it’s sweet. 

Haha I just got an email notification for shipping right after leaving that comment. 

Oh yeah, it came out absolutely fucked.  By no means the most offensive or gross variant in the world, but… compared to what the mock above looks like, yeah.
I recall the band manager or someone else from the band admitting that they miskeyed a number on the order form that was off by 1, and it changed the base vinyl from clear to blue.  No one caught the error until the end product was unboxed in true “oh shit” fashion.
All the other boxsets have had variants that are pretty close to the mocks.  The band has been really proud of the way they all turned out, so obviously this misstep was a first for them.  So it’s cool to see them actually correct it.

Wish I would have done silver, or blue. Not really feeling the green. Hmm.
