gmoney Posted June 23, 2015 Author Share Posted June 23, 2015 That Pitchfork review is by Laura Snapes who is to say the least obsessed with The National and that score makes me think it's VERY biased. This review is much better/accurate - http://drownedinsound.com/releases/18857/reviews/4149101 Wow. That review is awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timsimmons Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 This is a really nice set. Everything looks clean and sharp. The shipping packaging was over the top protective which is a nice touch especially given the price. Neat that the outer box is themed with the artwork as well. I may have to put the records into non plastic sleeves though. I don't really like those types of sleeves. Vinyl is quiet. Mix is great. Its a sleek set. Its over priced for sure, but at least its really cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eliminator Jr. Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 If there's going to be a decent stream of this anywhere I'll totally skip through this. Some of the variation described over at drownedinsound sounds really cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NationallyFrightened Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 This thing was packaged and shipped extremely well. Double boxed, covered in bubble wrap. Interior box is screen printed. Records separated from the acrylic box with surrounding foam and foam between. Very well done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yek Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Who amongst us has 6TB free for this single 6 hour FLAC? The file have to split anyway, so if someone have a rip of it I could offer the space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simple_torture Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 There's a rip of this floating around now. It's out of my price range for the time being, so this will have to do! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oblivions Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 My post is in reference to the LA Amoeba! Good luck. If I had more money and more time to play all my LPs, I'd love to own that set. Come back when you grab it and post a pic of you listening to hour 5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timsimmons Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Ordering from amoeba.com gives you free shipping. There may a 10-15% coupon out there too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their 15% off coupon just ended yesterday. If you want to save some cash on this right away (and don't mind buying in person), I would buy their Groupon ($30 for $19) using a brand new account and use the 15% discount Groupon gives to new users. It'll end up being $30 for $14 which saves you $16 off the set. https://www.groupon.com/deals/amoeba-music-4 If you don't mind waiting, there should be another 15% Amoeba.com discount in a few weeks.

jackshidt Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 The Rhino Records store in Claremont (30 minutes east of Los Angeles) had the set in stock last week when I was there. I don't know the price but they usually mark stuff down if it doesn't sell, and this had been there a while. It's kept behind the front counter.
