drds89 Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 one of my favorite purchases of the year. really love that the black with green really is green with black like the pic above and DVD + unreleased takes are worth the price. not to mention the RM sounds superb on the 180gm.

Derek™ Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Watched the DVD the other night. Truly enjoyed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhulud Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 Taking the DVD out of the pocket was a bitch and a half! Of course it got scuffed up and light scratches. Let's hope it plays without skipping or anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neanderthal Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 This is easily one of the best products I own in terms of a vinyl record. No hesitation. A+ on every aspect. So great that even people who bought it to flip it are questioning themselves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek™ Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 So great that even people who bought it to flip it are questioning themselves. Haha, care to elaborate on this? I haven't even been looking at the aftermarket, but this statement has me intrigued. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moglog Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 Dang, this is a REALLY nice looking package. Glad I picked it up and looking forward to spinning it (when I'm in the mood, it's not an everyday album for me). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buddha4281 Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 received this yesterday. wasnt lucky enough to get the green version but I am still happy. the packaging is awesome. I stayed up late watching the doc last night. not gonna lie, it was pretty awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kannibal Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 I played both the Weston and the Golden cut back to back last night. And I really don't think there was much, if any, noticeable difference between them. Maybe some slight EQ differences, but neither sounded better than the other. Both sounded great. Great package, and looking forward to the doc. Despite T&G best effort with good packaging, my cover got a nasty dent that looks terrible, especially on the back cover.

Neanderthal Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 Haha, care to elaborate on this? I haven't even been looking at the aftermarket, but this statement has me intrigued. When I added it to my discogs collection, the cheapest one was $80. Basically what I am trying to say is that people who bought this limited variant to flip it, are most likely scratching their head saying, "I should probably keep this, because it's so fucking amazing." And if not, fuck them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhulud Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Watched the doc last night. Man. It was so great. Got me a bit emotional and nostalgic as I reminisced on those years living in Louisville and seeing most of those bands in the doc and also how great the HxC and Punk and overall music was back then.

They both have their own qualities. Funny enough, a friend reached out today asking if I still wrote & kept up with my records blog, and prompted me to revisit a few old posts. One of which was about the Spiderland remaster. https://theystillpressvinyl.wordpress.com/2014/07/03/an-open-letter-to-slints-spiderland/ faaip de oiad 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just have the original mix (2004 pressing). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
