Thomas³ Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 As everyone else stated, this looks and sounds fantastic. Thanks for the quality, as always, polyvinyl. I got a watermelon airhead this time, and it was also good. The Butcha and MCDELTAT 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hairy Potter Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 I caved listened to the album when Polyvinyl sent out the full download. I absolutely love it! Its modern yet nostalgic. Complex and catchy. In my opinion, this is some of the best , well tuned, and technical song writing put out by anyone in a long time. I really enjoy the lyrics and vocal styles. This album is what I've always hoped for and expected from Mike Kinsella. I'm blown away. I don't see this leaving my turntable for the foreseeable future. I can't comprehend how anybody in their right mind could listen to this album and feel that its not a keeper. I'd like to hear any new music in their library that can make LP2 seem forgettable.

bluescreenlife Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 I've listened to the album maybe 10-20 times now and enjoy it for the most part, but something has always annoyed me slightly and I finally realized what it is. It's Kinsella's word-attack when he sings. He's doing this soft pretty attack to his words, much different from how he sang on LP1. He softly glides into them, and I just find it kind of cheesy. Otherwise I like everything else. I wonder if the change was intentional or if he just brought over his Owen style. throwgncpr 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He mentioned in a recent interview that now he's "no longer afraid to walk out the front door" in regards to his vocals; meaning the vocals on LP1 are that way because of a lack of confidence more than trying to sing in a certain style.

DecayToDeath Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 My order came in today. I had been slacking hard on buying the original two releases, so I took advantage of the bundle options and got them for cheap along with LP2. I'm gonna listen to them in order today.

zdkaiser Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Is the Indie Exclusive that Bullmoose is selling just the orange variant? Anyone know? I thought the orange was the standard retail version. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just checked my Bullmoose order because it shipped and it says the Indie Exclusive is an Orange/Red starburst. jcolls13 and poweredbytrust 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poweredbytrust Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 US standard retail should be orange, not to be confused with the orange/red starburst variant. I'm not even sure if there is a black press of this after all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Royal Dutch of Dukes Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 If this were eBay, right now I'd be giving Polyvinyl A++++++++++++ feedback I ordered the bundle with the pennant and was charged only $3.84 for media mail shipping, so wasn't sure how it would arrive. I was thinking rolled up in a poster tube or such, but instead got it in a full 30"x14"x8"box with the pennant laying flat and securely fastened, and with the record in a separate box inside, along with enough packing material to start my next several bonfires- it definitely must have cost them more to ship, but I'm certianly glad they did it in such a manner to keep everything in such great shape.

Snaggle Von Swift Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 I regret now getting the Polyvinyl Early Bird (no Airhead for me ), I hope the silver from the UK shows up soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
