Moglog Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 $16 more just for a colored version is...interesting. Gonna hold off for a little bit, but will pick this up eventually. Glad they are doing a Memphis album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onandonandon Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 The single is different which I guess could be said about most modern mountain goat albums. It didn't grab me the same way "Younger" or "Andrew Eldritch is going to Leeds". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drewberinger Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 getting real sick of the colored variant being priced higher than the black vinyl SaulManella 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
museummouth Posted August 11, 2020 Author Share Posted August 11, 2020 I think we’re about to see lots more higher priced vinyl now since bands aren’t touring. The $40-50 release might be standard for a while. dork337 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeardedSteven Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 I just come to complain about that $40 vs $24 price difference too... I never felt like buying the deluxe of that dragons album was worth the extra. At least the tapes are only $10. I might pick up one of those.

DecayToDeath Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 I’ve got an advance copy of the album and I’ll just say I don’t think I’ll be pre-ordering it, or possibly buying at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if I’ve changed or his stuff has, but for as much as I loved a lot of his stuff for a long time, everything since Transcendental Youth has been pretty meh to me.

The last three in a row have ended up settling on the neutral-to-negative so I think this is what finally makes me stop calling tMG one of my favorites Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCDELTAT Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 Yeah.... nope for me. $40 2xLP without anything special is a no go. Maybe once there's more singles, but unless it's an amazing album, pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeardedSteven Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 Landlocked has the gold for $26 now too. I wonder if the $40 gold from Merge/Bandcamp is a mistake then? That's a crazy big difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a shame because the current lineup is very talented and JD will always be a great lyricist (and person), but it just doesn't feel like tMG to me. And that $16 markup for colored vinyl just rubs me the wrong way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coolio Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 Same. I love a few tracks off beat the champ, and the single from goths, but nothing since then really clicked with me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll still listen to this one before I buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesewoodenideas Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 Loved Beat The Champs, Goths is okay, In League With Dragons good, Songs For Pierre Chuvin very good imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've listened to it twice and am not completely sure if I'll give it a third listen anytime soon. I also haven't dug what they've been releasing for the last decade, so I'm not sure how much weight my opinion has. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
