pizza face Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 (edited) Returned it and got a new copy, it sounds better at least the problem I had on the first copy doesn't exist which is weird because there was no visible scratch on the record. There is a small scratch on side 3 on this one but I can live with it since it pops where some kick bass is for 3 rotations. I feel like I get shit luck when it comes to buying records or maybe I'm just too picky. Idk I just know if I'm paying $30 for a record it better sound good. Anyway, this album is solid. Will probably have to listen to it a few more times before I can say it's better than RTJ2 (my go to running album). It definitely has some heavy hitters though...really wish I was seeing them in Boston, might have to make the trip down to CT if tickets are still on sale.

OrangeJoe Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Been listening to this a lot lately, In general it is solid and about what i expected, but I will say this is the strongest El-p has ever sounded lyrically. but killer mike still the greatest.

lethalenforcer Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Just now, thepunkguy said: this dude has TWO. selling them both for 500.00 Yeah, he stalks the boards.

I've pitched the idea a few times to no real avail. It wouldn't really prevent anyone from creating an account just to lurk and flip, but it'd be better than nothing.

throughbeingcruel Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 They could do something similar to all those torrent organizations and set requirements to join. The majority of us here hook one another up with tour variants, RSD releases, and the like. Fuck, people even cover one another on preorders and shit. If they did that, most of us would be fine.

vinyl addict Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 (edited) My guess is it's sold, via a deal off of eBay to avoid the fees. Edited January 20, 2017 by vinyl addict Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ethereal Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 was skeptical on hopping on a pre order cuz I kinda wanted the chain.. would my best bet be an indie retailer or are there certain online shops offering it as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this point I think the version with the chain is pretty well sold out everywhere online...I can't find any more of them, at least. Best bet would be to hit physical stores and hope they still might have some. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
