I bet this album could have been way bigger with slightly better graphic design work, but regardless of that this album is classic and I can't wait to hear those demos.

nancy_raygun Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 It'd be cool if they would release those demos separately Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want those sweet, sweet extra tracks. Just don't know if I want them enough to buy another copy of this. Guessing with 3000 copies, I have some time to think on it.

Moglog Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 I'm guessing this will sound better than the other presses? If so, I'm all over this. Plus I love those b sides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nevermind, just read this: You can also always visit your local vinyl shop to purchase the deluxe black vinyl edition!

kylekrische Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 I actually don't hate the artwork. I think I actually like the old art better. It's going to sound stupid but it was like artwork I didn't really look at. When I looked close I noticed it was garbage but I like the fact that it didn't make me look close. It was just there.

fondfarewell Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Does this sound shitty to anyone else? I'm no audiophile but it seems all muddy to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it sounds a bit muddy at times tbh Looks amazing, but I'm underwhelmed by the mixing The b-sides are great though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nancy_raygun Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Too funny, I was actually at the record store earlier today and the guys working there were saying that something was off about the new pressing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAXECSTATIC Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 thats always been my issue with this record. song-wise its my favorite of theirs, but it sounds TERRIBLE. Had this on a few different pressings and have ditched them all after one listen. The digital master doesnt sound too hot either so i guess thats just how it is...

timsimmons Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 (edited) Yeah, I have 3 pressings, the blue, the black regular and now this splatter and all sound terrible. Also, I got the lyrics locations poster and the tube Sabot shipped it in was so shitty it got a light dent in it and it really fucked up the edges of one side of the whole poster. It's not s/n or anything and I'll never sell it, so I can frame it out, but come on. For what it cost, put a little effort into it (it was a tube with the fold in ends and no tape over them).

radiatorhums Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Bummed to hear this doens't sound that great. I have an older copy, but I was considering an upgrade for the B-sides. How does the second disc sound? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timsimmons Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 As good as the first. toomanyrecords 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
