andables Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 (edited) damn didnt realized this was going live so early. missed out on the splatter but grabbed the clear boxset! Edited September 4, 2020 by andables Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRHews Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 (edited) Missed the splatter at 8:05am....but did grab the Milk Clear thankfully. Happy to have either one honestly, but the colors would have been nice. With the errors they had this morn more might go up, but I don't want to risk and cancel my clear for it to only fuck up again. Also the opaque splatters could come out looking like shit. Also nabbed the clear/splatter Solitude!

mrewest Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 Freaked out a bit when that error message came up after hitting “pay now” but luckily everything went through & got it all. Phew! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still, stoked to at least get a boxset. Grabbed the galaxy Solitude as well. I was F5 at 0759 and couldn't check out in time for the splatter, so don't feel bad. Had everything preloaded and PP signed in. Bandcamp actually seized up for a few minutes! Edit: on Solitude I avoided the Haze, even though always tempting, they usually are unlistenable due to all the grit. Maybe things have changed, but I didn't want to chance it and went with the coke bottle clear. Edited September 4, 2020 by drds89 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajborneman Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 Missed out on everything. Awesome! Wish I would have remembered a couple hours ago... 😔 Guess the Kicker of Clouds wasn't meant to be part of my collection 🤷♂️ Hope the pressings turn out nice though!

Derek™ Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 Couldn't talk myself into the box since I still own everything but Subsume, after all the time, and I never even bothered to sit down with Unending. But I will say the $1 shipping got me on a copy of Solitude. That, and having my buck go a bit further to support Ben today. That /200 looked too nice to pass up and I can't imagine it sounding inherently better or worse than a splatter. Queued up the album and played it loud in the home office during the homestretch of a work shift and can confirm it's pretty nice. I wouldn't argue with whoever said it may be his most mature and realized album to date, on the last page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did not think it would be that high demand for it. I'm hoping with the way the mockup for Solitude looks it turns out to be more of a translucent/smokey translucent marbled blue/black.

MayCauseDeath Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 (edited) I accidentally ordered a milky clear box set in a separate order with the splatter of the new album. I am either going to cancel or if someone here wants them for exactly what I paid let me know. The reason I placed two orders was the first just was processing indefinitely so I thought it sold out so I went and created a new order with the milky clear because the Splatter box set had then sold out. However, it did the same exact thing with the other box set so now I have two. Edited September 5, 2020 by MayCauseDeath sugareggs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Numbering/signature is not on the actual box but on a little slip that goes around it. Will possibly be spinning all four today to hear how they sound.

Eclipsical Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 If anyone wants to sell/trade their splatter box set, hit me with a PM. I have the clear box set I could trade plus cash$ or some records. Got the clear box set plus Solitude in today. Spinning Solitude now. Man, I think it tops Beacons. So many tasty riffs. The black/blue mix vinyl matches the cover perfectly too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EquinoxDesignLab Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Got mine in today as well. Ordered Solitude on splatter, but received the galaxy. Honestly probably sounds better anyways so aint too bent out of shape about it. Box is insanely tight fitting, obi is quite loose, but a nice package overall!

JRHews Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 One you take the plastic wraps off and squeeze the air from the box, the whole thing fits very nicely. The obi strip is nicely snug. The milky clear boxset looks great, very minimalistic aesthetic overall, but I'm not so fond of the Solitude 'galaxy' variant. Might grab the new splatter and see which I like best, get rid of the other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
