MyEnemy Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 (edited) Man! I’ve been seeing copies of this, pop up, that look fucking crazy! I’m jealous. Mine’s a farty regular old color in color. Edited July 21, 2020 by MyEnemy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thepunkguy Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 I am loving this record. no surprise i've loved almost everything they've done from the start... but does anyone know the pressing info on this? I accidentally ordered this three time. (no kidding)... I have a black, a black blob in red, and a red / blue mash... and there's even a blue one out there. anyone?

There is a blue, pretty sure it’s the retail, that Domino sends to indies worldwide. Did you order the “a side/b side”(I think that’s what it is, from the pictures I’ve seen) from Domino UK or something? I have a feeling all of the overseas orders got the crazier looking version, when I was under the impression they were all(worldwide) blue/red color in color. I didn’t see any mention of anything other than that. Edited July 21, 2020 by MyEnemy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just opened my red / blue and it looks exactly like the other one I talked about.. so maybe the one online was just a mock up.. cause both of these look like it's a black blob in red. I didn't realize it but both of them say red / blue vinyl. so maybe I am wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, this was only advertised as red/blue color in color, and I’m pretty sure, even if you order from the US, it’s all the same “batch”(same with all their other releases), but I feel like there may have been a plant fuck up, or something, that caused the really awesome “a side/b side” version, and they were sent out first, to all the overseas orders. I haven’t seen anyone in the US post anything besides the c/c. There was never mention of two different variants, for mail order(there’s only ever one, worldwide). Shit happens... haha Bummed when I got mine yesterday and saw all the other ones though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek™ Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 Alright, you guys twisted my arm. Gave into the hype and took this for a spin – really solid first impressions. Almost getting an Idles vibe if they swapped out some of their blistering punk angles for some Michael Gira-esque vocal bits here and there. A unique sound through and through, though. Guess I should probably work backwards into their catalog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess I should probably work backwards into their catalog. Not really unique. It's like a modern day version of The Fall with better production. For yourself or anyone new, start with this and go backwards from there. They really grew as musicians and song writers quite a bit. Lyrically still the same quality writing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Live at the witch trials, hex education hour, this nation's saving grace. That will give you a varied taste. After that I would say dragnet, grotesque, perverted by language. Pretty much anything outside of that is going to be a personal taste, difficult to listen to or spotty. MyEnemy and Derek™ 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You make this sound like it’s a bad thing... haha I feel like a band like Fontaines DC has more of The Fall vibe, where as Protomartyr has a more ridged early 4AD sound. But any band that sound remotely like The Fall in 2020, sign me up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was just pointing out that they arent really unique and used The Fall analogy On an album note, I think this may just be Protomartyrs best album Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrodan Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 sup nerds. my internet buddy in the band just gave me the heads up that the small amount of copies the band got of the blue/red just went up. i would act fast, as i believe they did not get very many at all. https://www.hellomerch.com/collections/protomartyr/products/ultimate-success-today-red-blue-vinyl lexicondevil, rickker and Derek™ 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are these true blue-reds or likely the red with black blob? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are these true blue-reds or likely the red with black blob? from what i have gleaned, there are only 3 versions. black, blue transparent and blue/red blob which may have different variances within it, but constitutes the same version.
