GazHilarant Posted May 11, 2015 Author Share Posted May 11, 2015 I have been notified that 12 Bar Bruise was delivered, I have been informed the condition is quite acceptable. I am so happy I could die. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spoon Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 ^ Awesome! Psyched to have snagged the new record today. Hopefully it isn't too far off from shipping, I'm really excited to check out the packaging first hand (although judging by the Flightless instagram pic vs. the Castle Face pic there may be some differentiation between how clean the "quarters" are on vinyl).

kamalatapes Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 I haven't heard good things about the Warm Soda Flower Power/Pentacolour variants, hopefully this doesn't also have noise issues. I think the truth of the matter is that they were mastered really low overall, but I've heard the Pentacolur sucked physically/noise wise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natenomm Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 I just hope King Gizzard doesn't suffer from the same fate as the Pentacolor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

segal-train Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 If they do happen to sound bad I have no issue ordering a black copy once they are repressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine also came with surprisingly little damage. I'm not so sure that info on Discogs about every copy including a drawing is correct. Mine was only numbered, nothing else.

stl_ben Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 The pentacolor Warm Soda LPs did sound like crap, that had nothing to do with mastering and 100% to do with the way it was made. No idea if Quarters will have the same problem, but I am fine with my gold copy so didn't buy today's version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rumor has it mine got dinged up because it was the first one ever made and the entire band handled it very aggressively due to their excitement jack8urt0n and kamalatapes 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, I removed the shrinkwrap from mine, don't wanna see any of that bending happening in the long run. It feels better having it in my resealable mylar sleeve, sitting there on the shelf, unplayed, while I listen to the mp3 version. We are strange people, aren't we.

I listen to mine a lot, if they repress I will buy one just to re-sleeve my original, I am super sensitive about sleeves. On a more serious note I would still like the Solid Pink Mind Fuzz... errr.

GazHilarant Posted May 12, 2015 Author Share Posted May 12, 2015 So. I am extremely sad to report my 12 bar bruise arrived. The sleeve is a strong VG+, however the vinyl itself is dished or bowled. It's a sad day folks, a sad day indeed. Looks like I won't be spinning this tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could try this little guy http://www.needledoctor.com/JA-Michell-Record-Clamp It's expensive but could be worth it. It's supposed to fix all kinds of warping. If you don't want it I would take it off your hands. PM me.. but maybe try the clamp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GazHilarant Posted May 12, 2015 Author Share Posted May 12, 2015 http://i.imgur.com/BST3DDI.webm Here is my 12 Bar Bruise. Sorry to hear that, it's a real shame.

If you don't want it I would take it off your hands. PM me.. but maybe try the clamp. I actually have a decent clamp, only works on one side. I think the only thing that could possible bring this bad boy back is a "Vinyl Flat" and they are like $200, plus to ship to Canada would be very, very expensive. I may email King Gizzard on Bandcamp and ask what they recommend, I presume there is nothing that can be done due to the low quantity that they had, I am still happy just to have it. cambionic and jack8urt0n 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does your clamp have the little piece that can go under the record to try and reverse some of that bowling effect? Not sure what kind of clamp you have, but it's the little thing in this video.
