Thrice55 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 I'm not sure if I'm mad I bought the boot or not.... Maybe I am.. Ugh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek™ Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 They're saying May 16 (I think). Not doubting you, but I can't seem to locate that on the PO page and it's driving me crazy. Did they confirm it on Facebook or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcpherson123 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Just try it out on grooveshark.com first and if you find you dig it enough, grab this repress. I've bought a number of records due to trying them out for free first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juturna90 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 I just caved and ordered! So excited for this release. Even at this price.. Would be cool for a gatefold but doubtful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saomitch Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Darn. Promised myself I would buy this once it became available again, but that price... I'll echo what has been said: "Dammit I hate myself, bought." natenomm 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neanderthal Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Darn. Promised myself I would buy this once it became available again, but that price...

mikeytags Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 aren't the Mars Volta albums notoriously bad-sounding on vinyl? I thought I've read that somewhere before. Can someone confirm that this album sounds good and is worth $45? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neanderthal Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 I don't know why I need some reassurance right now to pull the trigger on this, cause this is one of the my favorite rock albums.Are everyone's experiences with MOV pressings good?

Thrice55 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 My boot sounds way better than the OG pressing, so in that sense I'm perfectly okay with my purchase. And my boot was actually just as expensive (if not cheaper) than this but I bought it from over seas so shipping nipped any of that in the butt. My boot is gatefold with awesome inner sleeves and it sounds great. I'm guessing this MOV pressing will be awesome, and I'm so close to pulling the trigger on it and being the judge for myself and just getting rid of the less superior. Decisions, decisions.

circuit bored records Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Didn't think twice and ordered this sucker. Glad I held off on buying the bootleg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can someone confirm that this album sounds good and is worth $45? Well, a couple of their releases were on glow-in-the-dark vinyl and a golden picture disc. Those sorts of records are infamous for bad sound in general. Music on Vinyl usually has their shit together and puts out high-quality pressings. I'd say it's pretty safe to buy.

kamalatapes Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Damn this was such an influential record on my attempts at becoming a legendary guitarist. This album and tons of Jimi Hendrix led me to believe well, I'm just a rhythm guitarist after all for forever. Would be a cool record to own if it were like 20$ maybe 30$ going to have to leave this one to the true true fans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neanderthal Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Yeah... So I just went in on it. This has been the album I've been after most since collecting. I just hope the price tag is justified by the product itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
