hyperg1ant Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 I hope they release a decent You'd Prefer an Astronaut repress, because the SRC release sucks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to say how it stacks up to an OG press though as i've never heard the OG press. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I A/B'd my white copy with my CD and the audio quality is virtually identical… which is why I don't bother putting the LP on anymore.

No static or pops. Sounds better than the CD (probably because I'm listening on a much better system than I use for CDs) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andthejets27 Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 My SRC copy of astronaut sounds like garbage. Totally distorted, no impact or punch to the heavy/layered parts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highfives Posted March 3, 2018 Author Share Posted March 3, 2018 My SRC black (first press reissue) sounds good. I haven’t compared to the original, but it definitely doesn’t sound like garbage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember recording my copy of the OG black press of YPAA on a nice maxell high bias tape, and cranking that shit while driving in my late 90s Nissan Sentra. That kick drum just sounded like it was hitting me in the chest... Analog mertzrock, andynz and throwgncpr 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kisol Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 (edited) I’ll believe it when this mofo is sitting on my turntable spinning. The news about a summer release came from Talbott himself. Pretty reputable I’d say yet now the rumor is damn near Christmas. Edited August 29, 2018 by kisol aopps42 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesecrets0308 Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Yeah, we've been waiting for forever about this. As i recall the last news was that Matt received TPs and wasn't satisfied with it and was going to have it reworked but that was a couple years ago i believe. no matter, i hope this rumor is right, i need this album in my collection yesterday. also definitely interested in some new Hum music.

highfives Posted August 31, 2018 Author Share Posted August 31, 2018 This is from a dude who posts on /r/Hum and seems to be a reputable source. FWIW, I spoke with redacted who basically said "yeah, it's still eventually coming out, but don't hold your breath." Someone asked "the reissue, the new album, or both?" and his reply was "yes" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

highfives Posted September 20, 2018 Author Share Posted September 20, 2018 (edited) End of November, 180 gram, 3 b-sides included. http://www.earthanalogrecords.com/category/blog-posts/ 9/19/18 Hi friends. Been a minute. Wanted you to know that our Downward is Heavenward re-issue is currently in production at RTI in CA. I expect to have records here at my house at the end of November. I haven’t set an official release date yet, but it should be sometime in November. I know you have waited a long time for this. I’m sorry. I checked out for a few years. I’m kinda back. I think you’ll like the reissue. I hope so, anyway. It was cut from analog masters and includes three b-sides. Double album. 180 gram. And Jay Ryan is currently working on an accompanying poster. Yummy. Check back here for more info. I’ll be around. From time to time. Sort of.
