Stryder Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 Already got this on purple, but I had been eyeing the red for some time as I love red vinyl but it was only available in bundles. Now the Kings Road red is up solo on their site and there's the Hot Topic Red with Black Splatter that's also available. Can't justify getting both so, which one should I get?

Shitty Rambo Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 ^Whatever's cheaper. Anyways, did those purple one's end up being 180g? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

one8two Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 Anyone have an unwanted purple they'd like to palm off? Missed the initial preorder and don't really want to shell out $75 to include two other variants I already have... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it's not feasible, but they have Red, White, and Purple up on Kings Road together as a package. Sell the ones you have an snag this one, maybe? I have a feeling the purple will become the most "sought after" variant because it went first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glass realms Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 went out to the shop with the intention of grabbing a regular black vinyl press. decided to order the silver pressing from a UK shop since it came out to $23ppd which is about the same as retail price domestically.

I saw the HT variant and snagged it since every other blink album (with the exception of TOYPAJ) I own is HT splatter, I couldn't resist completing my collection. The upper left corners of the sleeve and jacket of my purple are badly bent, which really bums me out, so if I do decide to part with it, it will probably be relatively cheap. I'll let you know.

andydrums Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 (edited) Got my order from Music magpie this morning and the tossers sent me a CD by accident....just waiting to see what they're gonna do. Been listening to mp3s of the album the last few days and really enjoying the album so far. **Edit - just rang music magpie and apparently they never had the vinyl anyway, so they're refunding anyone who ordered it ** Edited July 2, 2016 by andydrums Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Banned User] Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 Ordered the splatter and the silver variants last night. Splatter turned out to be more expensive than Silver shipped to the US. My top 5: Cynical Los Angeles Bored to Death Left Alone San Diego Still letting the album sink in though. It's hard to describe it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheComebackKid Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 (edited) I'm suppose to get my black 180g on Tuesday from Amazon.ca but I guess it will depend on if there is a Canada Post lockout/strike or not...

Satan Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 Don't know what all the hullabaloo about the purple is, but mine sounds great. Quiet, heavy, and just a smooth ride all around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marc32137 Posted July 2, 2016 Author Share Posted July 2, 2016 My drumhead package just arrived. Haven't seen any reports of basses or tickets so maybe the winners are being notified by email after all the PO's ship? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

verb1999 Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 I figured most Blink albums have some kind of bonus tracks, hadn't heard anything about any for this release, so a little google search revealed the Japanese version of the CD has one, titled "Hey, I'm Sorry". Anybody know anything about it? I get most of my Japanese CD's from yesasia.com, they don't seem to have it. Amazon Japan will ship it for $30.65. I'll probably put the grabs on it.

rickydenim Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 Picked this up without listening as saw it in JB for a reasonable price. 180g Black sounds great! Digging the album too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
