deer Posted December 6, 2016 Author Share Posted December 6, 2016 Yo, the previously-sold-out red vinyl is back up in very limited stock on the Flower Girl site. Anyone who hasn't bought yet... now's your chance... http://flowergirlrecords.limitedrun.com/products/579572# Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rogeoa8 Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 (edited) Yeah now that I listened through the new album, you guys are right its not all that similar to Trophy Scars... but I gotta say, just gave "An Autobiography" by Old Gray a play through, and while there's nothing wrong with the new album, on first listen I definitely like An Autobiography a lot more.. Not sure if that one's been mentioned earlier, but its a lot more cohesive and a lot less Hotelier-esque emo poetry (which I'm not particularly big on tbh). https://oldgray.bandcamp.com/album/an-autobiography Edited December 6, 2016 by rogeoa8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their first two eps are totally different too, really don't know what to expect with these guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say that content-wise SB seems (to me) to be rawer, fiercer, and more emotionally charged, whilst vividly capturing and portraying the devastating feelings of isolation, desperation and anger (not that AA doesn't do that... I'm sure other people can sum it up much better than I have). They are both phenomenal pieces of work.

An Autobiography has this cathartic post-rock vibe whereas this one is just a fucking choke slam haha. Pleasant surprise nonetheless, can't wait to blast this on my TT.

Derek™ Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 For anyone unable to access your download which has officially been made available (and has probably been e-mailed to you), just follow the e-mail's URL but change the ".com" to ".limitedrun.com".

SE7EN Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 Got my blue and splatter copies this morning... Both look really nice (splatter especially)! Will try to get some pics up later or tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mesi Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 Got my blue today as well. Flimsy UK mailer + record shipped inside the cover equals major damage to the spine unfortunately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bladewillisisdead Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 (edited) Finally caved and ordered this along with the demo 12". Was going to say I now have their whole discography...but I remembered I sold the "I Love You..." lathe a couple years ago because I was desperate. Oops. Oh well, at least I paid all my bills that month. Edited December 10, 2016 by Bladewillisisdead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shelby Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 So I got some real listens in and this record is absolutely incredible. I'm pretty much over the screamo period of my life other than a few staples but this record (despite only covering one side of a 12" record) is easily one of my favorites this year. I can't actually believe that I'm considering it one of the best with all these other 60+ minute LPs. The last two minutes of the last song... fuck me. poweredbytrust and SE7EN 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually just voted for this as one of my top 5 of the year in a poll from a day or so ago. Re-iterating what you said, its pretty mind-blowing, given the run time.

Okami Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 I received the red variant today. The first track has noticeable distortion it doesn't skip, but this noise continued throughout the first song and to a lesser extent the second song. I gave it a good cleaning, but still had the same results. I am unsure, it seems that the record has been incorrectly trimmed. I noticed a two-inch section of the outer edge is flatter making the record wobble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bladewillisisdead Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 My splatter is the flatest single sided LP I've ever gotten. I was surprised that it's completely flat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRHews Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 My red is a little warped. Gonna try to flatten it a few days before I give it a proper listen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
