Appleseed Cast's Two Conversations


Recommended Posts

the ones without seam splits are going to be limited editions.

I got me one of those!

Look for it on ebay, 1/1! SUPER RAREEEE. hahaha.

I guess I got lucky with that one, although it was rainy and I was worried my mailman would leave my stuff outside to get wet.

Hey dudes,

I'm totally shocked and bothered that anyone has received a product in subpar condition. I've had like 2 complaints in 7 years but with this record, about 7 or 8. I'm not sure if it's the post offices fault (I know it was in the case of the DeadMX as that is nuts!) or mine for not packing it well enough. Regardless, I'm all about making folks as happy as humanly possible so please, if you want to exchange it or whatever, email me: [email protected]. Terribly sorry folks. Seriously.

Thanks for the tip but I use normal packing tape. Nothing cheap. Something happened at the post office that I've never used before. Take a look at DeafMx's picture on page 3. That's fucking insane. Several packages were opened. Regardless, apologies all around.

its okay, you run a really great label. this isnt going to hinder my support of it.

Got my order today, no seam split! Love the Marshmallow Ghosts 7", and all the cool shit thrown in with my order. Graveface are fast becoming one of my favorite labels in terms of quality and presentation of their releases, so I'm glad my favorite band (The Appleseed Cast) is signed to them.

Thanks for the kind words.

It's just frustrating to spend so much time and money on something and the fucking USPS ruins 1-2% of the copies sent. It could be worse I suppose. It could be every copy!

Fragile collectibles should be packaged appropriately to prevent damage in transit.

In our experience, split seams for phonographic records are generally a result of insufficient packing allowing the vinyl disc to move about the box during transit.

Bumping this because there are two pressings of this album now and I can't figure out which is which. From Graveface:

First pressing was 1000 copies on transparent monster electric green/baby blue opaque/red and white splatter vinyl w/ an 11x17 poster folded and tucked inside. Second and current pressing is on ultra clear vinyl with lots of black, white and highlighter yellow splatter. Still comes with the poster and the second pressing is 500 copies.

Does anyone have pictures of both? I have one that looks greenish but also highlighter yellow.

Any help?

did you see the pics in the thread? the Chicago flood washed out Graveface HQ along with the remaining copies of the first pressing. i'm pretty sure this was one of the records Ryan said was damaged anyway.

Here's a snap...

still waiting on mine, but it's on its way, can't wait.

googled this from the Graveface board.

Badass. I didn't even look at the thread. Thanks for the examples guys. I googled the images but never saw the clear.

I got a first press copy. Woo.

P.S. I love this album. I love all Appleseed Cast releases but because this record is so straight-forward and has traditional song structure, I think this is my favorite album of theirs.

man im a little disappointed if thats true.  im not sure an album with three pressings already (and a fourth in black pending, per the site) needed an "archival release", at least not before the true OOP classics from GF

Agreed.

I already have all of the pressings of this and was hoping that the archival stuff would at least start with stuff never available on vinyl (As If By Ghosts for chrissake!!) and then later do some cool colors of stuff that's been unavailable for a while.

On a positive note, I was finally able to get a decently priced colored Sagarmatha recently!
