DecayToDeath Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 I saw this in Hot Topic the other day and it made me feel weird because I knew I was probably missing out on a 14 page VC thread. You haven't been around in a while, huh? Also, (don't know if you had it before, but) 9k posts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

museummouth Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Got my HT copy today and wow this is thin jacket with some pixeled art. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sawyer Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Got my HT copy today and wow this is thin jacket with some pixeled art. Yeah, I just got mine and noticed that too. Maybe just a low quality scan of the album art? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DecayToDeath Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Yeah, I just got mine and noticed that too. Maybe just a low quality scan of the album art? Mine looks a little blurry but not any more than the Three Cheers one did. Passable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bladewillisisdead Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Shitty hack job blowups of cover art should never be passable. Someone had one job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdussack Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Got my HT copy today and wow this is thin jacket with some pixeled art. Same with the version from the band Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bladewillisisdead Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Same with the version from the bandYou can say that again.But yeah, obviously. It's not like the different variants were produced separately. All the jackets and records are coming from the same place.

Dominic_ Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Didn't think it was that bad. :shrug: I definitely noticed it, but it isn't offensive or as bad as a MTTS I saw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DecayToDeath Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 I definitely noticed it, but it isn't offensive or as bad as a MTTS I saw. My MTTS looks great. Is the new RP bad? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhcp02 Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 My mtts cover from last yr did look pixelated if I recall correctly. Not too noticeable though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DecayToDeath Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Just went back and looked at mine, and I guess if you get really close it's blurry, but looking at it from the distance you'd look at any other jacket, it looks great.

throughbeingcruel Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 It's a shitty cover regardless if it's pixelated or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dkrtz Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 I reeeeaaaaaally like this pressing. I usually don't like glossy sleeves but this one feels right for the album. It's definitely pixelated slightly and whoever did it definitely just googled and picked one of the first image results but ah well. As I said before I kinda dig the inclusion of the parental advisory because dumb nostalgia. but most of all i really love the dark red/black variant for this album. It is kinda thin but so was the first press. I am a pleased buyer; especially for twenty something dollars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup home ordered. I guess I might have to go back to shipping to store :/ I have never received a record in this type of bag packaging so I don't know why they did this time.

YesPlease Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 I've always used shipping to the store, and never had a problem. It's always in tons of bubble wrap and a cardboard box. That sucks though man! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sucks though man! I mean even when my Three Cheers had a box cutter cut on it it came in a cardboard package as well so that one was just bad luck. This packaging is just stupid on HT's part, I've never seen a record come in a bag with 0 protection before or even just in a bag in general.

DecayToDeath Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 How often is it from HT putting their records in a bag to ship? Pretty sure it always happens like that. You'd think someone at the warehouse(s) would say "hey, these are for clothing, NOT fragile items like records". Jesus Of Suburbia 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
