dawhizz Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 Anyone taking odds on these going up individually after they sell out of multiple pressings of the boxed sets? xfactor675 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know the wording on this makes it sound like this is it "Limited to 500 copies worldwide Absolutely no repress ever!"

I think the odds is around -1000. would laugh even harder if the colors were way cooler and album art specific too. Quote "Limited to 500 copies worldwide Absolutely no repress ever!" pretty sure it's about the boxset itself.

glass realms Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 Assuming that End Hits got the licensing from Warners to press more than 500 copies of each album, it wouldn't be beyond the realm of possibility that individual copies of each album could be pressed. Not sure there would be a US release from End Hits. Chances are, a US label would have to license the albums from Warners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snaggle Von Swift Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 Will take my chances and hope for individual pressings, I only want Casually Dressed & Deep In Conversation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerseydave77 Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 I'm not interested in this but End Hits has been a stellar company. They tend to do packages and individuals of releases. They also have a US distro deal with Deathwish - so if you are passing on this, I'd keep an eye out for Deathwish to have some in the states for domestic shipping. glass realms 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek™ Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 I see way, way less a problem with clear vinyl than listening to FFAF in 2021. 🤷♂️ TheGhostOfRandySavage 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like a big marketing point that it's available for the first time ever. But that aside, clear vinyl is classy as hell and timeless. And tends to sound better, on average, than a lot of colored variants. I think so many people are just conditioned by splatters and swirls in modern vinyl culture. These reissues aren't for me but I couldn't imagine scoffing because "just black" or "just clear" vinyl was available, for a record I've wanted that's been OOP for 15+ years and averages $200 on Discogs. The euro is also in a pretty nice spot on the spectrum of USD conversion. People crying about the price should be grateful it's not in pounds.

It just felt generic compared to Casually and Hours. It wasn't until The Young and Defenceless where I had hope again, as it sounded like a good mix of their old and new sound. But I was pretty let down when Welcome Home Armageddon dropped. The Young and Defenceless was supposed to be a preview of what that was to sound like, but it just sounded generic and boring overall to me.

I totally fucked myself with the STYG represses from End Hits. Grabbed the transparent ones from the first press just to release another wave the next day. Tried to sell the first press, ended up with a net loss of $45. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally couldn't care less for splatter and swirl, but I would expect some more thoughts put into this, especially because these are OOP for a long time as you mentioned, plus the first 2 records were both already pressed on black. It's just lazy ass production, and they have been teasing these for years. (there wasn't an official announcement yet, so I might just bashing them for no reason, lol) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boaty McBoatface Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 (edited) US Link: https://store.rhino.com/music/vinyl-1.html Black bundle and all 3 albums as standalone. Edit: $15.99 shipping to Canada regardless of quantity ordered is pretty fucken sweet, too.

MCDELTAT Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 (edited) I wonder how expensive US shipping is, it could actually be more expensive that the UK This Is Dig Store, where it was only $82 USD ($60GBP) for the 3 record bundle. EDIT: Comparing, looks like I would save $8 USD by ordering from the UK, but just because they aren't charging me tax.

HardlineKid Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 (edited) I'm going to delay buying this, wait too long and then regret not having bought it before it sold out... Is there a US link for the clear? Seems like it was sold out in the UK. Edited September 16, 2021 by HardlineKid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
