Cmon both fan bases are pretty similar when it comes to how fanatic they can be. Is it really that sane to pay $30 for a 7". Screen print a cover slap a limited number on it and Melvins fans lose their shit and will spend big bucks on it, I am pretty guilty of it as well. stl_ben 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warhenrecords Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 Oh and for those curious, or for those who care about such things, these reissues do NOT have download codes in them. Not a huge bummer by any stretch, but I wouldn't mind having an iPod ready version of Stag & Stoner Witch for the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deadlydoris Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 got all 3 of mine in the mail last friday. no download codes but they sound really good. no clicks/pops. really like the quality of the gatefolds as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you explain to me? I'm unclear, but would love to get copies (even though I already ordered the black copies). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm unclear, but would love to get copies (even though I already ordered the black copies). Explanation: TMR releases all of their variants in non-standard form, so there is no precedent. They could sell them in store only in Nashville or Detroit, or maybe bust out the rolling record store and sell 10 copies here and there as they travel across the country. They could send them with the band on tour or send them to random indie stores for special instore events. They could put the records in giant bottles and throw them in the ocean or sell them online.....basically no one knows till TMR announces something. That announcement could be weeks or moments before the actual release, but either way people will be scrambling from around the world to either get there or talk their 3rd aunt into lining up for them.

They've been doing Grumpys shows since 2000 I believe and I've to almost all. Gor 5 bucks each, I Got the Spit it Out and Shit Sandwich 7"s at those shows. I've since sold them to pay for some medical bills for my kid. Tough to do but really an easy choice also. freedumb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeromium Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 I don't think I own anything from Third Man yet but it sounds like these color variants may end up difficult to score. I'm tempted to just pick up black ones now that they are out. kannibal 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
