Guest Admin Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 To no surprise, the Gaslight Anthem took the top 3 spots and many more spots on our top 40 of July 2008. The top 10 also included Thrice, the Teenage Bottlerocket / Broadway Calls split, Dillinger Four, and the Lawrence Arms. This is the first time that not one of our own releases made the top 10. Our bests for the month include LaGrecia which is still going strong, Kay Kay and HIs Weathered Underground 7", Tim Barry's laurel st demos, Ninja Gun, and Every Time I Die. Note that although there are links on this VC.com site, many of them will take you to our store's front page since many are sold out. Thanks everyone for making July a record breaking month (almost doubling our previous best month!) 1 THE GASLIGHT ANTHEM "The 59 Sound" LP blue vinyl (Side One exclusive) 2 THE GASLIGHT ANTHEM "The 59 Sound" LP white vinyl (VC exclusive) 3 THE GASLIGHT ANTHEM "The 59 Sound" LP black vinyl 4 THRICE "The Alchemy Index: Volumes 1-4" 4x10" clear, blue, red and brown 5 TEENAGE BOTTLEROCKET/ BROADWAY CALLS split 7" clear-red-black splatter vinyl 6 LAWRENCE ARMS limited deluxe edition set (3 records,pint glass,t-shirt,cozie, 7 THE GASLIGHT ANTHEM "Sink Or Swim Demos" 7" orange vinyl 8 DILLINGER FOUR "More Songs About Girlfriends and Bubblegum" 7" blue vinyl 9 LAWRENCE ARMS "Cocktails and Dreams" double LP black/white marble vinyl 10 TEENAGE BOTTLEROCKET/ BROADWAY CALLS split 7" maroon/white opaue vinyl 11 ALKALINE TRIO "Good Mourning" dbl LP color 1 12 THE GASLIGHT ANTHEM "Senor and the Queen" 2x7" clear vinyl 13 SAVES THE DAY "Sound The Alarm" LP Vinyl Collective exclusive color vinyl 14 ALKALINE TRIO "Good Mourning" dbl LP color 2 15 PINHEAD GUNPOWDER "S/T" 7" colored vinyl 16 Gaslight Anthem "Sink or Swim" LP 3rd pressing colord vinyl 17 THE GASLIGHT ANTHEM "Sink Or Swim Demos" 7" half/half tour edition vinyl 18 ALKALINE TRIO "Remains" dbl LP clear vinyl limited edition repress 19 SCREECHING WEASEL Boogadaboogadaboogada LP blue vinyl 20 THE GASLIGHT ANTHEM ''The '59 Sound'' 7'' 21 LAWRENCE ARMS limited deluxe edition set 2 (3 records,pint glass,t-shirt,cozie, 22 LAGRECIA "On Parallels" LP grey vinyl (w/ free button, digital download card) 23 THE GASLIGHT ANTHEM "Sink Or Swim Demos" 7" orange vinyl 24 CHUCK RAGAN/ NAGEL "Snapshot" 7" white vinyl 25 KAY KAY AND HIS WEATHERED UNDERGROUND "Diggin" 7" green vinyl 26 ALKALINE TRIO "Good Mourning" dbl LP black vinyl 27 Tim Barry "Laurel St Demos" LP clear vinyl 28 MINUS THE BEAR They Make Beer Commercials LP fruity peb 29 THE HOLD STEADY "Stay Positive" dbl LP 30 LAWRENCE ARMS "Guided Tour of Chicago" LP purple vinyl 30 LAWRENCE ARMS "Ghost Stories" LP clear vinyl 32 CHUCK RAGAN/ MUFF POTTER split 7" 33 ALKALINE TRIO "Agony & Irony" LP 34 MURDER CITY DEVILS "RIP Live" LP 35 THE COLOR FRED "Bend To Break" LP brown vinyl 36 LAWRENCE ARMS "Cocktails and Dreams" double LP black/white marble vinyl 37 KAY KAY AND HIS WEATHERED UNDERGROUND "Diggin" 7" both colors 37 STREETLIGHT MANIFESTO "Somewhere In Between" LP colored vinyl 39 A WILHELM SCREAM "Career Suicide" LP yellow vinyl 40 NINJA GUN "Restless Rubes" LP opaque peach vinyl 40 TEENAGE BOTTLEROCKET/ BROADWAY CALLS split 7" both colors 40 DILLINGER FOUR "More Songs About Girlfriends" 7" blue vinyl (new covers) 40 EVERY TIME I DIE "The Big Dirty" LP 2nd press set of both colors 40 12'' Record Jacket Sleeve.

kirbypuckett Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 If I were the Gaslight Anthem I would just keep putting things out on vinyl, it's like the Nintendo Wii -- it just prints money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stefan Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 9 of the top 23 are gaslight 20 of the top 36 are shared between 3 bands (the gaslight anthem, Alkaline Trio, and the Larry Arms). I'm more curious to see what No Idea stuff makes it on next month's list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
partysmasher Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 What was the pressing info for The '59 Sound on black? Was there only 100 pressed or did VC only have 100 to sell? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flood Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 1 THE GASLIGHT ANTHEM "The 59 Sound" LP blue vinyl (Side One exclusive) side one exclusive... but only available at VC because S1D didnt have their shit together for the all out DNS attack on their website.

howitgoes Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 Was the same amount of deluxe sets (A and for the Lawrence Arms made? Because if they both all sold out, I figured they would be tied on the list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Admin Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 100 lawrence arms A sets 60 lawrence arms b sets and we got 200 of the black sold so far, but we only have a few left and the label is already repressing them, but I don't think there will be much difference in the repress of the black vinyl.

andrew13 Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 so actually the orange demos are probably like #5 or 6 since it's listed as 9 and 23 both. haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
