Forever Yeah, I think that gold turned out even better than I was expecting, to be honest. The photos where it appears darker or more brown almost remind me of the "root beer" half of the root beer-split variant of the first press. I'm into it.

MrPart2 Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 I completely regret not picking up the gold with black smoke variant now. I have the clear with black smoke so I've been slacking on picking one of these up. Reading through this thread really makes me want to.

throughbeingcruel Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 (edited) Finally sold my old pressing and ordered the 180g black from deathwish. Almost got the red from the Converge store but fuck Kings Road. Edited January 10, 2017 by throughbeingcruel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1876records Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 just got this in the mail yesterday and it's beautiful. everyone should just find an original pressing and pay whatever you have to. much better option. fizio59 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How is it a better option? I can't imagine it sounds any better than the current run...and (minor personal preference) I prefer the art without text on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More care and consideration goes in to all aspects now by everyone. Glad you are all into the repress. It's taken a lot of work to get this release to all of you this time around. -J.

cemeterytapes Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 (edited) In regards to my above post: this is to say the original pressings all look dope, but I have no regrets about having sold my OG tour press in lieu of the new gold press if that's what Jacob has to say about the pressing quality.

1876records Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 I can definitely see the differences between OG and the 2010 DW repress I have. The EVR jacket is super thin and wavy when opening the gatefold. luckily, it doesn't drive me insane because this is a white whale record for me. I am just glad to have it in my collection. my favorite feature of the repress is the J, A, N, E labels in place of A, B, C, D sides. I'll never sell off myrepress for this reason alone.

It's the last copy that sold on discogs, $340 right before Christmas. It was definitely my most prized record, it was the second record I ever bought and I found it for $20 at a record store (that I later ended up working at) in high school before I had ANY idea what a variant even was. But I'm using the money to treat myself to a new tattoo for my birthday this weekend so it's all worth it!

DecayToDeath Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 I'm seeing them for the first time in late January and was wondering: will the band hang around after if I want to chat & get something signed? Group Buy Guy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try to catch them before the show starts near the merch area. I saw them on the Axe To Fall tour and talked with Jacob for a good bit and took a photo.

These days I'm not sure, but back in the day Jacob used to always hang out at the merch table. He'd sit down at the edge of the stage and start talking to people as soon as their set ended. Now the shows are so my bigger, so I dunno what kind of luck you'll have. He's an incredibly nice dude though. Also...I may hit you up to possibly grab that blue JD for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can totally do that as long as they don't sell out by then...my date's the 26th. I've held off on a copy of Dusk because green is my favorite color, but I'm afraid of my luck running out.

You're probably in luck as far as getting stuff signed. I'm sure I don't need to tell you this, but bring your own sharpie and hope it doesn't break in your pocket in the pit. Converge usually limits their tour exclusives each night so they have some at every date. Also, the person working their merch will let you know about how many they've got left if you ask.

pepperonigin Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Deathwish is doing 20% off all gift cards at the moment with the code "freemoney". Used that opportunity to pick up some stuff I was missing. Not sure how long it will last though. On an unrelated note, did anyone who went on this tour manage to grab a blue Jane Doe? I picked up a red and I heard of others getting white, curious to know what is circulating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satan Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Not relevant to Jane Doe, but pre Jane Doe. I found some old Converge patches from the early days earlier this morning that someone was selling. https://bnc.lt/focc/EJHD1DaM5I Mattiktpq 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
