creigercreig Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 I went through Normans too, and they don't show in stock till the 20th. I also order M&A and find out Monday if Phil was able to score me one of the clear variants. The wanting is killing me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGhostOfRandySavage Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Front outer sleeve, front cover Back outer sleeve, back cover Front cover with outer sleeve, front inner sleeve back inner sleeve, back cover with outer sleeve. They're not super heavy, but not flimsy and it's nicely matte. I'm not crazy about super glossy covers, so this is a positive for me.

kjkenney Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 that looks fantastic! Anyone know what the "indie exclusive" is? Local store has a listing for it: http://www.ziarecords.com/p/5471955/modest-mouse-building-nothing-out-of-something-indie-exclusive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rabbitvinyl Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 that looks fantastic! Anyone know what the "indie exclusive" is? Local store has a listing for it: http://www.ziarecords.com/p/5471955/modest-mouse-building-nothing-out-of-something-indie-exclusive According to a guy a few pages back, the BNOoS exclusive is red and the Interstate 8 is blue. From what I read, only European stores were supposed to receive the variants but the same thing was said about LCW and Long Drive and those turned out to have a few different variants.

kjkenney Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 yeah thats what I was wondering. If those were the EU variants, I'm curious as to what these US ones may be. Will probably try to swing by today and pick it up. Been wanting it either way but thats kinda neat if I can snag a color copy locally Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shelby Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 If the US variants [exist and] are opposite the EU ones I'll laugh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esbe Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 If the US variants [exist and] are opposite the EU ones I'll laugh. God I hope not. I don't want to have to buy another set. Of course the opposite colors is a no brainer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huh? What? Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Really feel like I need Other People's Lives on 7" to complete my collection of MM records from the inner sleeve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
habbazoot Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 So I got Interstate 8 today I only just finished Sleepwalkin', but to anyone else who has it: is sound quality of yours fucking terrible? The music itself sounds fine, but there's CONSTANT surface noise in the right channel. It honestly sounds like a shellac record in just the right channel. I thought maybe it was something with my needle but no other record has that happening. Also the beginning of Sleepwalkin sounded ROUGH... Edit: alright so somewhere during Tundra/Desert it went away, Enter the Sad Parts sounded beautiful. Side B has been a lot better too. Not sure what the deal was...

Got this today and listening to the A side and I agree that there is a lot of surface noise on the silent parts (especially at start of Sleepwalking).

Fowty Dollaz Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Got this today and listening to the A side and I agree that there is a lot of surface noise on the silent parts (especially at start of Sleepwalking). I don't have a lot of surface noise, but there is some on mine. I gave it a solid cleaning before I played it, so that may have helped. Overall, I'm super happy with it.

Overall, I'm super happy with it. It's only noticeable on quiet parts so it's not the biggest deal. Not to mention, I got it mainly for the B side, which sounds clean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downisthenewup87 Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 My copy of Building Nothing has a constant clicking all the way through Medicine. Super annoying on such a quiet song. It's a noisy pressing in general with clicks and pops throughout the record. Sounds like a used VG and not a brand new record. On the + side, the mastering is solid.
