nick69 Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 (edited) Yo, I got a mysterious email from FedEx that a parcel will arrive to me in 6th December. No details of contents whatsoever. Tracking says it was picked up in Peabody, MA. This must be it. Edited December 1, 2016 by nick69 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Negron Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 No kidding, the packaging was so tough to get into! This record looks so good, glad I managed to jump on a gold/smoke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DecayToDeath Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 (edited) Got my gold/smoke today and it doesn't look like the mock-up; it's more of a translucent brown with smoke. Edit: ...not that it makes a huge difference. Still looks cool and sounds phenomenal.

Thomas³ Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 Well, I spun this twice and just cannot get in to it. Not really surprising, but I figured I'd try something new and people seem to enjoy it so I gave it a chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never been a huge fan of hardcore, or really heavy stuff but thought I'd try it out. I'm always down for listening to something new, but it pretty much turned out as expected.

I'm always down for listening to something new, but it pretty much turned out as expected. I took a gamble with more recent Converge albums back in 2009 or so, and worked my way backwards. None of them were love at first listen considering my tastes at the time – and I certainly don't listen to a plethora of hardcore / metalcore / whatever, even today - but all I can do is encourage you to revisit it down the road instead of selling it off or retiring it for good. It's a complex and dense listen for sure, but once the pieces begin to click I think you may be able to understand why it's such a heralded gem in its scene of music, and still frequently discussed after 15 years.

No way--it's a great look regardless; and yeah, it's always eyebrow-raising to see someone complain about "not enough splatter" in their blonk record.

Stress On The Sky Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Got my shipping notification on my blue hoping it's here by Friday. As far as Converge goes I'd agree with Derek's sentiments that going through their back catalogue backwards yields brilliant results so happy that I will have both of my favourite Converge records by the end of the year. Would have loved to get that gold, it looks swish as fuck but I'm limited to whatever EU colours Deathwish put out after the continual hiking of international shipping. Not always a bad thing though the EU Rheia and Prey were both pretty as hell and even though the Blue with smoke won't really go with the album art I'm sure it'll look nice.
