V3XED Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 (edited) Ordered with a quicknessssssssssssssssss. And even though Clairvoyant wasn't the album I wanted from them, I actually do think it is very very good. Update: Page Taken Down! I think this went up a bit prematurely.

I wasn't fond of their cover live but maybe the recording will be better. Digging Early Grave though. Oh yeah no media mail either so $7.65 shipping. Outrageous.

Winterhalo Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Back up for sale again. I had to pay $9.65 for shipping... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silence2-38554 Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Ordered the opaque pink in hopes that it is the more limited press. Any numbers on these? holyvacantsholyhell 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any numbers on these? even if its "more limited" , it definitely looks worse than the galaxy/splatter version. however you wanna justify that extra $10 spent though..

That’s another reason I went with the opaque variant. The description on Merchnow says “splatter” and the mock up is definitely a swirl / marble, so who knows how that thing’s gonna come out... EDIT: Just tried the "how many can I add to my cart" trick for the first time & there are 302 of the opaque left & 819 of the splatter. I'm guessing original numbers were 500 & 1000?

Spirit Level Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Have wanted that mineral wash tee for a while so copped one with the opaque pink Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silence2-38554 Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 Just received the "opaque pink" from TC's webstore & it's definitely a Pink & White marble. Wondering if there's actually just one variant and both sites had inaccurate descriptions.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also ordered the merchnow and have some buyers remorse (aka awarness of over indulgence). So I may just flip one copy and keep whichever looks nicer.

V3XED Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 Also, eOne-Heavy's instagram page just posted an image of a new variant. (grey marble) Not sure if its actually up / available for PO anywhere though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holyvacantsholyhell Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 I’d have buyers remorse too if I paid $30 for two and a half boring songs and a cover. I miss Exoplanet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MayCauseDeath Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 I have all the albums from this band and since their so called "progression" or as I would say "regression" they have been extremely boring and surprised anyone still enjoys this. holyvacantsholyhell 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ethereal Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 I can’t believe they still haven’t reissued intrinsic, ez money for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V3XED Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 I have their discog. and I think Language is an easy favorite for me. Though Intrinsic is a close second. I still enjoyed Clairvoyant but it ranks below most of their other albums, maybe just above the super early deathcore EP's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holyvacantsholyhell Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 Well this is infuriating to me. Follow is easily the best thing they've written since Exoplanet, but the rest is so fucking boring... These guys obviously have the potential to make a great album with their current schtick, but they reallllly need someone to work QC and tell them that throwing a couple screams in there isn't admitting defeat.

N8TRU Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 I listened this morning and I was super disappointed with this. Quality wise I'd rank it below every album. I don't understand why they bothered putting out something so short and on top of that it was supposed to be out a while back. My other big questions are why was this pressed to vinyl, why were so many copies pressed, and why is it on a 12"? I have their discography but I'm probably not picking this one up because of the price and length. holyvacantsholyhell 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V3XED Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 Alright..... I think this EP is really disappointing as well. The length is really the worst part of it, I actually like every single track. Follow is super super good, but hot damn. Why is this a 12"? My own damn fault for not considering it before purchasing, but it feels cash grabby. I am sure they have some other B sides or something they could have used to flush this out? Or just make it a 10" and call it a day. (Or would it even fit on a 7"? lol) Anyways RIP my dumbass wallet.

Could've even done it on a 45 if they didn't include that useless cover. I think. I don't know, don't listen to me. I do know it could've fit on SOME KINDA 7" Edited August 9, 2019 by holyvacantsholyhell N8TRU 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
