Sad Heart Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Gotta be honest. I'm miffed at myself for waiting to grab the Newbury variant. Especially given that I dig splatter colors. Damnit. I'm sure some flips will pop up later. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sad Heart Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 I have a big collection of them but not a completion freak in any way. I will be happy with 3 of these and the PG.Lost good call thanks DG I have a half clear half black pressing of Key and the sound is massive. The post rock equivalent to Converge. You'll be really happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel the same way. I should have known better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anchorlessbodies Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Finally grabbed the EU variant, already have the original press, but this is THE Converge album for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agaetisbyrjun Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 I'm sure some flips will pop up later. :/ Some from Newbury themselves. Keep an eye on their site as well as their eBay store over the next few days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deer Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 I think the only variants not sold out are the black/red EU variant and the retail white! Spent the last few days listening to Converge's entire discography post-Jane Doe. I love it all. Jane Doe is on its way towards being one of my favorite albums, period. Y'all were right, this is a good band. Very glad I preordered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffthomas84 Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 In for the Newbury variant.. Might grab the Euro variant too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hallowken78 Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Do does Newbury ever throw up leftovers of sold out titles in the event of pre-order cancellations or extra stock? I don't order much from them so I've never kept an eye on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry man, there was an issue with the site upgrade that was just sorted. All of my post attempts were perpetually showing as 'saving' and not going through. Couldn't see any threads update either. I've gone ahead and deleted all the repetitive posts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hammertime Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Yes it's not at all crazy for sold out Newbury titles to pop back up on their site, but sometimes it's only 1 or 2 copies and they're gone in a flash. Basically you have to check often and even then a fair amount of luck is involved. hallowken78 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bladewillisisdead Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Finally listened to the remixed title track and HOLY SHIT. This is going to practically feel like a new album. I'm super excited to spin this and I'm gonna hold off on any more digital listening. Now if I could only experience Jane Doe for the first time again.

Kurt really did a stellar job on the remixing. We never talked about it publicly, but we had some serious hurdles during the original mix session. The power kept going out on the block for hours at a time. Essentially killing our progress each day. It eventually was finished, but we always wish we had more time with it. -J. Having listened to just the title track of the Redux on soundcloud I will say this mix is drastically different. Like crazily different. I've always felt that YFM originally had a very unique mix and master and that was definitely part of its charm. It is a very dark, clouded sound but still super aggressive. This mix is explosive and in your face and also aggressive with a really bright attack. Its basically like the way the cover was flipped from all black background to all white background. It sounds literally like night and day versions. Its a very neat new perspective. Were any performances retracked? I kind of feel like there's a drum fill near the end of "You Fail Me" (Redux) that I don't remember noticing in the original. It could just be the overall brightness that is bringing it to the forefront of my mind when listening now but I remember hearing the redux and thinking that was totally new. Nothing re tracked. A lot of subtle things were lost in the original mix, are now audible. Thanks. ejc625 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbannon Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 The only place to now pre-order is deathwishinc.eu, but stock there is running low as well. We are working on an additional press to meet demand. More news on that when we have it, thanks. -J. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While that'd be awesome, the mix for JD is fucking great already...this new YFM remaster seems to have satisfied all issues I had with the original, though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbannon Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Thanks for the support people. No plans to ever revisit the recordings of JD, NH ATF, AWLWLB, etc. Fun fact, the main reason we were compelled to remix/remaster "Petitioning..." and "When Forever..." was that EVR lost the original packaging and audio files for both those releases. As a band we've recently taken steps to digitally archive a lot of our catalog that was on tape that was degrading. Hopefully that sort of situation will never happen again. -J. zerohacker, hallowken78, fugazi and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eliminator Jr. Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Thanks for the insight, Jake. At first I wasn't too sure what to make of the 'remaster'-tag, with the original mix and album overall being pretty close to perfect to my ears, but you mentioning that you guys had never been completely satisfied with the results makes me all the more excited to listen to one of my all time favorite albums the way that the people who created it had wanted it to sound. I'll hold off of listening to streams of the new mix to keep my excitement on a maximum level until I put the needle on it and fully embrace what's there to explore. I know I will love it, as I did for the last ten years. Also, Jake, your avatar is, by far, the best looking one after the 'circle takes the square'-update, so extra kudos for that.

fizio59 Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 I think that the package of this is going to be very very nice. I'm not sure but looking at this pic the sleeve seems to be gatefold. Aren't those two black & white panels the inside of the gatefold? Also the inner sleeve looks super cool, never seen a triple gatefold inner sleeve before. All the pics showed in the newsletter, including the pics of the discs, are actually photos and not mockups, like they already have sleeves and vinyl in stock, wondering why this won't ship until June 10. Also, don't know where that info came from at the time but I read that this was going to include bonus track/s but actually it doesn't..
