corey. Posted February 18, 2016 Author Share Posted February 18, 2016 Gonna bump this for anyone who missed out. This EP release was very last second so there wasn't any press/premieres. The EP is streaming in full on Rocky's bandcamp. We've got less than half of the /100 variant left. Thanks to all of ya'll who have bought it. They're expected to be here by the end of march. brianmorgante 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hempy3 Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 I don't mean to be ungrateful for you pressing this, but I feel like offering a discount of 25% to potential buyers prior to the record releasing is a real slap in the face to the people who pre-ordered this when it was initially posted. Just my 2 cents though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my 2 cents though. It's how sales work. It was unrelated to this release, we had an easter/spring cleaning sale on all of our items. It's kind of how it's worked in the history of forever.

gmoney Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 So pumped corey! Thanks again for putting this out. corey. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hempy3 Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 I understand the concept of sales, just would have thought if he wanted to drum up more sales he would wait til the record was released and not during a pre-order period. Either way, excited to add this to my collection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way, excited to add this to my collection. A lot of stores exclude pre orders from their sales, NM opted to go site wide. Shit happens. Order one less cup of Starbucks this week and it'll be like you never lost those couple bucks. Renfrew757, corey. and jonnywreck 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warhenrecords Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 Got my splatter variant the other day. Looks great. Last song has terrible surface noise/static. I mean like really bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xxmartinxx Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 Got my splatter variant the other day. Looks great. Last song has terrible surface noise/static. I mean like really bad. My copy is covered in GZ "sand". You should try cleaning it, if you haven't already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warhenrecords Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 I cleaned it and the static was still there. Maybe slightly better, but still pretty noticeable. All in all it's fine, as these things happen and vinyl is an imperfect medium, all things considered. Just wanted to give a heads up more than anything else.

xxmartinxx Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Well, I can do you one better (or worse). I just cleaned mine with my Record Doctor cleaner to get all that weird sandy stuff that covers so many GZ pressed colored vinyl and I have major surface noise. I cleaned it a second time to the same result. And it's constant, through the whole record making it pretty much unlistenable. It sounds pretty nice, despite the continual frying chicken sound.

It's definitely not the overall pressing of this album as I'm the one who approved the test presses and can speak to this. You perhaps got a bad egg from the batch, especially if it's a haze which is prone to surface noise.

corey. Posted June 1, 2016 Author Share Posted June 1, 2016 Any VC members interested in a test press /10 of this beautiful EP? We're gonna list one in our webstore soon but figured I'd give vinyl collective a chance first. Message me if you're interested! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corey. Posted August 31, 2017 Author Share Posted August 31, 2017 Was just thinking about how overlooked this beautiful EP is that came out last year. We still have some copies of all 3 vinyl variants, but we are low on the /100 and /150. If you like Rocky's music, I guarantee you will like this. It's one of his best in my opinion, and leagues better than the album released before it.
