mcpherson123 Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 I do hope it comes on black. I really do want this record and that price is so sexy especially when compared to original press prices but I've had it with colored vinyl.

You couldn't really ask for more (except a black option). mcpherson123 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattallurgist Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 Obviously I ordered this without thinking, but where were you guys reading about coloured wax? I couldn't see any mention of it. I hope this isn't just like Frames where I was moments too late to the party on that red vinyl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure you just jumped on it without reading a single word on the page and just following the familiar button scheme until you saw that your order was placed. I'm not being facetious. I've ordered LP's in that insane fashion before too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lethalenforcer Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 Looks nice. Also appears like it's just a (large?) pressing of the yellow/orange color. Sorry @mcpherson123 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcpherson123 Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 (edited) Fuck, that's a bad color. I blame the kids. I think labels feel pressure to justify an LP press with colored vinyl to appease the insane variant collectors who have grown accustomed to buying the rarest colorway and even if the label only makes a single variant on a reissue that might be a gamble, they'll opt for non-black to use familiarity for the masses of colored vinyl junkies to keep the units moving more quickly. Obviously they want to make their money back and profit but the culture of record buyers has ruined some aspects of "the hobby" for me at least.

I still can't believe how good that price is for a 2xLP though... Edited October 5, 2017 by lethalenforcer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not necessarily a hard, fast rule for me as I prefer opaque red to translucent red. Nothing wrong with the latter but its been so overdone. 1 minute ago, highfives said: I'd rather it be like this, minus the black. That looks cool but its too over the top for a record for me.

I was just searching for what kind of idea I had in my head for cover-matching vinyl. Edit: Hrvrd- 2xLP "The Inevitable and I" 3rd pressing (Red/Beer swirl with Blue splatter) Edited October 5, 2017 by highfives lethalenforcer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
