They could have been doing that for years with this and a number of other releases, so I don't see that happening. NorrisNuts 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those qtys would survive a bit... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the original statement was "don't they want to make cash?" there really isn't any big profit in a pressing smaller than that and why many labels choose not reissue back catalog of smaller bands. It's usually a labor of love, and Vagrant seems to only repress stuff they can sell a lot of like The Hold Steady, I'm more surprised they choose not to do the Alkaline Trio reissues. I'm glad these are being repressed, don't get me wrong I just think the only reason these are repressed at all is for merch at the reunion shows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdwell Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Most bands around this size....under 1,000 is gonna do. Most labels are waiting on this vinyl resurgence bubble to burst and are trying to not get stuck sitting on dead-stock inventory of it...I doubt Vagrant is much different. Physical media has become a niche market. Where a label does aim to make a little bit of money off of these pressings, there's also a lot of work that goes into it, and if you can make money off of streaming (physical product-free) and let the band make their own money doing merch (shirts ect.) a lot of labels are opting to do so.

randomfortunepa Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 At the show right now and they only have Your Majesty. The band didn't seem very happy with this entire process and mentioned it has been a big pain in the ass. So these will no doubt be available online. I didn't open the record to see if it was colored or not, but it does have an obnoxious 180 gram vinyl sticker on the cover of you are into that sort of thing.

Sorry I just saw this now. They had a large box and I didn't see that many people walking around with the record at the end of the show, so I would just wait. I have yet to listen to it to see how it sounds, but will report back when I have a chance. I had an original copy a few years ago that was pretty standard as far as Vagrant releases go. We'll see if this new 180 gram pressing enhances things Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aopps42 Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 They said on their instagram that they almost sold out on their tour, but there were 6 copies left that they gave to some record store to sell. I contacted the record store to see if I could buy a copy and have it shipped and got no response. So much for the "They'll neeeeeeever sell this out on their tour".

Are you referring to "Your Majesty"? It looks like that specific store is the only one that has it because the band might have all the rest of the copies? Nowhere in the post does it explicitly say "last copies." Edit: Saw on the store's instagram that it's the last six copies of "Your Majesty." I'm pretty sure "Nervous Breakdown" has yet to see the light of day. 19 minutes ago, andables said: sweet...... a big shout out to all the people on here who DIDN'T help the VC board out get a copy of this since a lot of us weren't near the tour stops..... Whoa whoa whoa - that's a bit entitled there, don't you think? Just because people are going to a show that you can't attend doesn't mean that they're obligated to buy you merch.
