BuzzersonKillwell Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 Wow. That went pretty quick considering the quantity and price point. Like you guys, I didn’t really need (or want) the extras but I jumped on this one anyway. Direct sale from one of my favorite bands, don’t mind paying a premium.

zuck Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 (edited) Price for this was kinda ridiculous (just like I, II & III) and I'm not at all into bundles, yet I still bought it. Not sure how I feel about that yet. Edited February 12, 2019 by zuck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just look at what you get and what normal prices are these days and you'll get around $100 $25 for a double LP $30 for the shirt $10 for the bag $15 for the slipmat $20-$30 for the stand $5 for the patch Thats $105 - $115. They can even ask more for a shirt or the LP these days. I doubt anyone thinks the price was bad for what you got... just not everyone wants to buy $75 in extra shit so that they can spin a few records. Also, the shirt was trash. Anyone who has been suckered into buying dumb bundles before has plenty of burlap sacks and shit quality slip mats. The stand was *kind* of cool. Just a few other options for less would’ve been cool (if they insist on only selling the records bundled with stuff not everyone wants). Probably could’ve coaxed me out of about $50 for the records and just one or two of those stupid add ons. All that being said... they sold out of those dumb bundles at that price so I guess they made the right choice. Glad for everyone who was OK with the price (or just wanted it bad enough to pay). Enjoy your records one day when they show up! Edited February 13, 2019 by dantheriver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velocity of Sound Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 Anyone have any shipping news? I’ve emailed the band and reached out via social media, but nobody seems to want to respond. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glass realms Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 I’m guessing there’s a delay in the records getting manufactured. Especially since it’s after RSD. They’ve been on tour as well so I’m sure they’re focusing on that. They’re in between tours now so hopefully they’ll provide an update soon.

IDK, they showed a picture of the album when they launched the preorder, unless it was just an empty jacket in the photo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shitty Rambo Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 At least The Bronx are still consistent with making it extremely difficult for people to own their albums on vinyl :/ Velocity of Sound 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Velocity of Sound Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 (edited) I emailed them.... “So the Dead Tracks packages have yet to ship. Still waiting on the records from the pressing plant - had a 3 week delay with the test presses coming back wrong. Will send out an email soon with updated information as to when you can expect the packages to ship out. Thanks for your patience and support! Cheers!

glass realms Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 (edited) Update from the band. Quote DEAD TRACKS UPDATE Hello everyone that pre-ordered our “Dead Tracks” b sides album... Due to an unforeseen track listing error at the record plant we had to master our dead tracks compilation LP twice. Everybody makes mistakes, but it is important to US, to deliver the right record to YOU. Test presses were approved last week and new ETA for delivery is mid June. Sucks I know, but we promise it’s worth it. Again - we are sorry about the mix up - and until robots finally take over, we’ll probably make a couple more...

Purple Buffalo Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 OK, I sent an e-mail on 7/2/19 and haven't gotten a response yet about the status on this... Anyone else heard anything?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opivy Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 No new update, no shipping confirmation, no package. I assume this will be pushed back again until August at the earliest, since no one has gotten an update since May. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velocity of Sound Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 I sent an unanswered email 4 days myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glass realms Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Sent an email on June 25. Still no response. Kiiiiinda getting ridiculous at this point. Going by their socials, it sounds like they might be reissuing the first Mariachi El Bronx on vinyl so coincide with the 10th anniversary.

seanicus Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 They posted an Instagram story saying they had finally received the finished vinyl sometime towards the end of last week. Things should be heading out soon. opivy and Velocity of Sound 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iggy_Pilot Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 (edited) From the runout information I just found on Discogs this was pressed at Rainbo Pressing. I hope everybody will receive a decent pressing quality. Rainbo is infamous for subpar pressings unfortunately. I also noticed there is a barcode printed on the back. Just speculating here but could it indicate a wider commercial release at some point in the future? Why would they need it for an exclusive self-distributed release? On the other hand their 2017 pressings had a printed barcode as well. Any thoughts on that?

Velocity of Sound Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 (edited) Are/were we to get MP3s at some point or no? Also, did anyone get an insert for LP2? I only got an insert for the first LP. Im happy with the pressing and the quality of the shirt, bag and slipmat. Worth the $100 in my opinion.
