Guest Admin Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 We just got in the vinyl offerings of Minus the Bear’s “They Make Beer Commercials Like This”. As you can see from the pictures, they all look really great. Yes, the Fruity Pebbles (Vinyl Collective exclusive) looks quite a bit like the Rainbow splatter, but what can you do? I think that with the Fruity Pebbles the plant did a really good job with matching the colors in the splatter with the colors on the cover. There is a download card which is super rad and the bonus track is excellent. We will be shipping these on May 27th to respect the Suicide Squeeze’s street date. I highly recommend you pick up the Vinyl Collective exclusive color sooner than later as we have already sold over half of the 500 pressing.

desensitizedbyu Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Splatter splatter everywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xfedaykinx Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 just to reiterate what i said in the other thread: the fruity pebbles is much preferred to the rainbow splatter. i just wish there was more of a difference. wasnt the band told what color the VC exclusive would be? it just seems odd that they would want two variations that are so similar. either way, the magenta/grey is fucking killer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmoney Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 i know a lot of people's opinion on splatter is pretty negative, but i'm a big fan of the VC one. kudos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devilstrombone Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 I used to really like splatter but it has been on almost every release of every record. Im just getting a bit tired of it. But these do look great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Admin Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 yeah, I wish they weren't so close, but the vc color is what was voted upon on hte message board and that to me is very cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dante3000 Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Is it possible to make a record with streaks (like the cover of the album, like various bars of color that are skewed and stretched)? Not sure if it's possible but that would look rad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riddle350 Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 I was wondering that too. Or something maybe like zebra stripes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhulud Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 I think it looks great. Backed! I like how the splatters came out. A lot of people dislike splatter colors, but I dig it. Especially if it's done well. As in the case here. The colors pop. And you can definitely tell the difference between the two. The rainbow has A LOT more red and green than the "fruity pebbles" one...if any... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thomas Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 And by the way...anyone else getting the same ad banner up top for "Gay Bear Dating"?!?!? AdBlock Plus + AdBlock Filterset.G FTW. I hardly ever see ads anymore, and when I do a quick update of filterset.G usually knocks it out. That Magenta/Grey looks nice as hell, sort of wish I went with that over the VC exclusive on just the looks alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisnorman Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 What a super bumout that the VC exclusive came out looking like rainbow and not the album cover colors (the colors voted on, and the colors in the description) it seems like every release these days has a color that the factory messed up.
