Glad I held out, but still not happy about dropping 50 Nah, those people can take solace in the fact that they got a remix version of their shitty new record, for $50.

jonnystorm777 Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 I bought it for $50, got it the other day. Sounds great. But it's just a normal double Lp. Nothing special, not even any inserts. Glad I have it. I love that some suckers paid $100 for it. that is great. Jimmarcucci 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmarcucci Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 (edited) I wonder if the limited to 200 pressed is true? If it was limited to that amount it would have sold out by now. I have a funny feeling they pressed more? Edited December 13, 2016 by Jimmarcucci Tommy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see how loving the record changes the fact that you paid wayyyyy more than you should for a barebones press of an album. and if your argument is that you got a record you love for $50, then what makes you different than someone who paid $100 for a record they love? you both paid more than you should for a barebones press of the record you love. you being a dick to those who paid $100 makes it clear you are missing the point.

jrodan Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 yes, but when judged against one's love of the record, how can that make a difference. I wouldn't pay more than $25 for a new record, so they paid 100% more than I would. see what moving the goal posts does? @rogeoa8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jrodan Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 right, so you are imposing your own personal preference on others and saying those that don't do things the way you do financially are suckers. if you can't see how absurd that is, well then I don't know what to tell you. @rogeoa8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pmlevine Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 I agree with jonnystorm777, Jimmarcucci, and rogeoa8. $50 is half of $100. I can also see how it may be a bit difficult for people to afford. I personally love this album and have no problem picking it up for $50. Sure, this could have easily been $25-$30 shipped. Shirts at shows could also easily be a lot less than $20 but I always buy to support. Is the profit they are making going to really enhance their lifestyle, probably not at this level. These guys barely play shows anymore. Anyway, I've met these guys a few times and helped them out when they had their PledgeMusic campaign.

highfives Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 They just released this redo/reimagining of Pretend You're Alive. "Alt universe take on PYA and also the 6th studio album from indie-pop band Lovedrug." https://lovedrug.bandcamp.com/album/ii Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highfives Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 So there are 25 copies of this left. Still priced high but they’re including other merch too. They sent me 5 CDs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With their pricing and how it was handled when it was originally pressed, not surprised to see it still not sold out. Fantastic album too. Might finally grab if it comes with some extra goodies.

The dude officially disbanded the band (or so they say), so it’s pretty certain this will be the only chance to pick these up. As shitty as they were about this whole deal, the LP, the support-the-band thing, the response to people being pissed, there’s a good chance we’ll never see more of these. So I ate some words and nabbed one. $50 shipped and they threw in Everything Starts Where it Ends, Everything Starts... EP, EP 1, EP 2, and EP 3 on CD and there’s unlimited streaming on Bandcamp. It doesn’t make up for the stand-in members being douchebags, but still. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FigmentForever Posted July 15, 2023 Share Posted July 15, 2023 Recently lost my collection in a break-in. Anyone have this LP for sale? Also looking for the original albums & EPs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
