drds89 Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 I know exactly what you mean. The vinyl doesn't remedy that. I had to crank up the volume pretty good to get good sound. Thanks, Evan - it's good to know I'm not going crazy. I don't mind playing with the EQ and loudness button if necessary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hobbledehoy_rec Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Australian dollar is at a 5 and a half year low against the USD. Coupled with our new lower shipping rates, now is a great time for US folks to grab any Australian releases you're looking at, that otherwise can be difficult to get. We've got Hobbledehoy AUS/NZ pressings of the following available that some VC folks are into: THIS WILL DESTROY YOU - Another Language 2LP (Blue /500) CASPIAN - Waking Season 2LP (Seafoam Blue /250) OWEN - L'Ami Du Peuple LP (Black /100 + Yellow /200) BRAID - Closer To Closed LP (Blue 180g /300) LYMBYC SYSTYM - Shutter Release LP (White /188 + Black /192) + and plenty of other releases of course. http://hobbledehoyrecords.com/store/product-category/vinyl/ USD $1.00 = AUD $1.23 at time of typing this.

Ruin Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 The dollar is horrible for us Australians at the moment, but who would have thought that the poor Australian Dollar would remind me that I still need to pick this up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mindovermatter Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Aww man I've had my eye on that Lymbyc Systym LP. Perhaps I can collect on some debts and scoop that up with some PayPal balance soon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps I can collect on some debts and scoop that up with some PayPal balance soon! The Lymbyc Systym LP is distro'ed internationally through Cobraside, a few places up north still have it in stock. Can still be ordered too. Some places I found with a quick google search...

thepunkguy Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 so TWDY have been saying all day on their IG account that they have been news happening tomorrow. ideas? new LP? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swemoll Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 so TWDY have been saying all day on their IG account that they have been news happening tomorrow. ideas? new LP? I think they're simply releasing a music video for "New Topia". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rickydenim Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 How is the pressing for Another Language? Still don't own this. Every bloody TWDY album I own has terrible surface noise so I never listen to them. Not keen on spending $50 if this is the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awesomeo4000 Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 my magic bullet TWDY records sound like shit, but my monotreme and hobbledehoy ones sound fantastic. i don't think i have any from suicide squeeze besides the black dunes single (which sounds not great anyway just because of how much music is on there) so i can't really compare to them. my only issue with the hobbledehoy pressing is that the grooves run on to the labels on every side. don't know if this is a widespread problem though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parkinglot Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 My Magic Bullet pressing of the self titled are by far the thinnest records I own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every bloody TWDY album I own has terrible surface noise so I never listen to them. Not keen on spending $50 if this is the same. I have the standard copper & Hobbledehoy blue & both sound a little muddy, but overall not bad. I didn't notice surface noise, but you gotta crank the volume to get good sound imo.

mrewest Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 I also saw that TWDY IG tease & it seems like it's just a video. Hobbledehoy also posted about how "this is something made with a lot of care & love". Seems like a music video wouldn't count as big news though, so who knows.

Shameful Dread Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 Going to see these guys in Portland in March, anyone else going? i'm thinking about it but still haven't listened to this album enough to say for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parkinglot Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 I was at my local record store yesterday, and saw that they had this and got really stoked, since it was one of my favourites from 2014, and I've been meaning to pick it up forever. Then I saw the price tag of $40, and it was the copper pressing. Nope. I don't get that stores prices. The SRC Jimmy Eat World represses are $50, but then the Modest Mouse represses are an extremely reasonable $30 CAD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiatorhums Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 i'm thinking about it but still haven't listened to this album enough to say for sure. I was really impressed with them when I saw them on their last tour (and I only like about half their releases). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hobbledehoy_rec Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Again, in anticipation for an exchange rate drop... If your in the states and you're eager to get the Navy Blue Australian pressing, with the USD as is now you're getting a solid deal. http://hobbledehoyrecords.com/store/this-will-destroy-you-another-language/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
