HoneyFrosted Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Pics? It's, weird. Too lazy to post pics but there's an outer jacket with punched in holes, and the album cover itself is like the inner jacket that holds the record. It's nice and it sounds good and the color is beautiful, but I wonder why they went with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always just curious to see any variations in different copies as far as the record itself. SRC still hasn't shipped mine. Big surprise.

THE_James_Champ Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 was really hoping for pink splatter but i guess the pepto-vomit-on-a-glass-table is alright lol. this is exactly what it looks like, ugh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danionly Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Man, some negative nancys up in here. Can't we just go back to being glad this was finally repressed, and a better quality than the previous pressings? Also, it seems like Triple Crown was just into this type of look. They did the same thing for From Indian Lakes new record which was probably pressed around the same time: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rooks Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 not being negative at all, I don't really care what the vinyl looks like, just that it exists and sounds good. Just pointing out that I must have read it wrong and what I opened was not what I expected Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE_James_Champ Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 yeah, and they pressed the new You Can't Take It With You pressing on seafoam green like the Devil and God pressing around the same time. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danionly Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Guess now we know what splash means! It is kind of strange they didn't market it a little more by showing a mockup or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE_James_Champ Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 I'm still excited to get it, I just think it looks weird. I went with the 180 gram black for Absent Sounds, so this will be my first splash record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danionly Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 yeah, and they pressed the new You Can't Take It With You pressing on seafoam green like the Devil and God pressing around the same time. lol Can't decide whether this is laziness on their part, or brilliant, since it is probably easier and faster for the manufacturer.

THE_James_Champ Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Can't decide whether this is laziness on their part, or brilliant, since it is probably easier and faster for the manufacturer. exactly what I was wondering tho, because the timing was so close to each other.

ilikeguitars Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Bowling warp? Yes, it is warped in the center. It creates a concave in which one side will lie flat on the platter, while the other will not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David The Gnome Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Yes, it is warped in the center. It creates a concave in which one side will lie flat on the platter, while the other will not. I have a couple records that came that way and they play fine. What's the problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nelso330 Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 I have a couple records that came that way and they play fine. What's the problem? I would hope you're joking? If you buy a product you expect it to be as close to what its meant to be. Would you use bent nails, or buy a car with a bent frame? Same principle...also its awful for your tone arm... Ive kept some records with minor warps, that just slightly move the tone arm up. If it bounces it off or is doing a lot of up and down work, I will try to return it!

If it bounces it off or is doing a lot of up and down work, I will try to return it! Right. And these bowling warps are generally gradual/minor, not the kind that jump the needle. That's why I asked why it was a problem. Sure, I'm never asking or expecting my records to come with any kind of warp but if it's playable and doesn't jump the needle why make a fuss of it?
