Vega Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Yep they did us dirty... real shame, they could have just put up another variant instead. I mean they must have known 500 would sell out fast, so why do this restocking in the first place... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Yep, another variant would have been the better choice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All black, 1 variant to clamor for. 8 minutes ago, Tommy said: I know were all talking about the vinyl, but this live stream on the website is really great Yeah, I'm streaming it now. A little surprised at how well polished it sounds. I totally get why Robin insists it's a Summer record though – so far, anyway – and I think it's a really fresh brushstroke from the palette their discography has already established.

To be fair, it was technically 4 'variants' last time, with the Lith print, signed, pure black and the colored. And were only at 5 right now... Also, can't listen to this right now, but will watch the video later, super excited, but interested in this summer vibe you are describing, compared to the autumnal feel all their other discog has.

There are still little flourishes of experimentation and what makes Fleet Foxes, Fleet Foxes. So it's hard to complain. Currently on Young Man's Game and have to give a nod to how energetic the percussion has been as a whole so far. I think that's a big part of why it feels so much more "active" and Summer appropriate. 7 minutes ago, JRHews said: To be fair, it was technically 4 'variants' last time, with the Lith print, signed, pure black and the colored.

I suppose so, yeah. The prints and signed versions are neat but I've never been (as) compelled to spend extra on multiples, myself. Felt a lot easier and less conflicting with Crack-Up... but I guess having a nice handful of good variant options is nothing to complain about. Yeah, they're really capturing a lot of seasonal vibes across their albums. As a whole, Shore has a totally different energy from anything else they've done – at least speaking to whole albums – and I think you'll dig it. Not to oversell it; I'm sure someone, somewhere, will insist they don't sound as authentic or something. I'm pleased with it and I've still got 5 songs to go.

Almost finished with my first listen of this record and I'm such a fan. I think (and hope) that's the joke Tommy and I were both going for. You can never go wrong with clear though, in my opinion. Probably the cheapest route between local shops or good ol' reliable Bull Moose, whenever they list copies. Really glad to hear you're digging the first listen.

Vega Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Crack-Up is one of my favorite albums of the last 10 years but when I listened to it back then for the first time it took quite a few listens to get the whole complexity of it. Shore seems far more accessible, but I'm really looking forward to how this will expand from now on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluesnoopy Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 I kind of wish I would have gotten the clay instead of signed print swirl blue..crack up was a blue and gold swirl it looks somewhat similar.
