noalarmplanet Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 It's trolling of the highest order. Band reaction to criticism is usually to either take it too seriously or to just "Ignore the haters", they chose an anarchic approach and I for one find it funny. Plus how seriously can you take a review that gets basic facts about your band wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

distinctlydustin Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 My RC B side has a loud pop, slight warp at the beginning. My retail copy > RC copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nostalgicbummer Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 my handpour was kinda warped and on the edge of the outer groove there excess dead wax hanging off the end , it's kind of hard to explain I'm not able to close my dust cover while listening or it will scrape against it...kind of a bummer Anybody else have this problem?

nostalgicbummer Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 That post wasn't intended to come off as me complaining or anything, of corse leaving the cover open fixes the problem and the record still plays fine and sounds good Was just seeing if anybody else has had this issue with their copy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ratbrain Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 my handpour was kinda warped and on the edge of the outer groove there excess dead wax hanging off the end , it's kind of hard to explain i had the same thing, lots of "lip" on the outside.

arem Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Mine had a slight warp but nothing that affected play. I think it could use a run thru the Spin Clean though, lots of audible crackles. I'd be curious to hear the difference between the RC and retail versions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beatnik11 Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 I got both the RC and regular version of this album and I have to say that I am a bit disappointed. Not in the album, but in the records. They both have a slight warp, but I could live with that if that was all it was. The surface noise on both is atrocious even after being cleaned although I think the retail is slightly better. I tend to listen to my records with headphones so if there is any part where the loudness cant drown out the surface noise it makes it very hard to listen to. I know Ryan does his best and the RC is not about making a profit, but I might have to send an email about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nyhi Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Yeah I'm hoping for a 2nd press on 180 gram black Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waters Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Yeah I'm hoping for a 2nd press on 180 gram black Love the RC copy, and would prefer RC copies 100% of the time because I value their beauty and uniqueness, but- would definitely be interested in a heavy weight version of this too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shinji Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Yeah, sadly the retail copy has a bunch of noise, glad I didn't just get a dud, but it sucks that that's the case for us all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shelby Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Weird, the beginning of the first track on mine has a bit of noise but the rest sounds great. I was especially worried the title track would suffer but it sounds clean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthewxbrown Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 did I miss something? It's just the hand-pours and the tan copies right? This is from their Chicago show that was yesterday. snacks4all 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dvv Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Deathwish listed this album in their distro as "opaque yellow" which makes me wonder if there was actually more than one retail color instead of just the tan color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
