I wonder who bought the last of those; I was going to buy it as soon as I could find an actual picture of what it looked like. looks good. surprised someone got it so soon.

Rottengoth Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 Merchnow doesn't always send shipping confirmation, so if you ordered from them check the website order status and tracking number should be in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tug Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 (edited) lots of people messaging me about when LFTL and artwork will follow with vinyl represses. i do not work for the used so i do not know... but may-2017 is the 10 year anniversary of LFTL so i am thinking we will see something then Edited September 9, 2016 by tug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ejc625 Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 That's hilarious that people are messaging you looking for info regarding represses ha. MerchNow variant of their S/T came in today. Glad to see a gatefold sleeve rather than the single like the first press. Also think this variant is by far the best looking. Just went with the retail for IL&D. Didn't really like any of the variants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't really like any of the variants. yup the gatefold is very nice. i thought they would of fixed the disc1 / disc2 thing and just made it side 1 2 3 4 but oh well. it also could of been 1 lp if they cut out of silence before the hidden track (like the did with imaginary enemy). but at least they made it 45rpm to make use of the 2 lps.

slinch Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 You can hardly call it a "first" press if it came 7 after the first one. And here I thought you were a completist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The difference between the 2009 repress and the 2016 repress on black are just as massive. Lol your collection is actually kind of lame without that original press.

Lol your collection is actually kind of lame without that original press. every country gets their own version, take the cd, its the same thing but russia, mexico, japan, korea, canada all have the exact same cd with a diff barcode. who cares? its the exact same thing. i always buy the usa version and only import if not released in usa (very rare to not be, ie; cassette tapes) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slinch Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 (edited) 7 years is really stretching the "little" in "a little earlier", but whatever helps you cope with the fact that you're missing the first pressing which is also proven to be far superior in sound quality. But I'm happy to learn than 2015 is the year they decided to make all music the same release date world wide.

Derek™ Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 Anyone else kind of disenchanted knowing that tug doesn't even own OG presses of the albums he worships? I feel like the illusion is over; this is comparable to discovering Santa Clause isn't real. texan4life, ksleap, KingTacoMunster and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
