mmhmm Posted November 4, 2010 Author Share Posted November 4, 2010 Spring Heeled Jack had videos on TV? Maybe I am letting my own prejudice and taste get in the way of seeing the big picture.I always thought PAIN was one of the best bands ever! And there is at least 3 of my friends not on the board that would buy any of these if they were pressed if that counts. Totally! I have several friends who'd be into releases like these as well. It just takes getting the word and reminding people of how awesome PAIN was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xgrantx Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 Just e-mailed one of the band members at their Pain store to get contact info for Avi and see if getting a Kickstarter page for this could even happen. Let me know what he says. I would take on the project and run the kickstarter for it if he is cool with it and doesn't want to mess with it himself.

I also know that Mephiskapheles has a video on 120 minutes. I never saw it on TV, just on youtube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swoopdog Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 I am now sharing my unofficial results of my facebook poll here are results in regards to this question: Spring Heeled Jack or PAIN? all but one of my friends but one said PAIN and one said this "Don't get me wrong, I LOVE SHJ. They are some of the nicest guys I have ever met and they play amazing stuff but it's kind of a no brainer if you have to choose between the two. I even bet that SHJ would choose Pain." It's not really fair to compare apples and oranges but I am just saying there are tons of PAIN fans out there that would love a vinyl pressing of any of their albums. I would buy a few or if we did a kickstarter I would throwdown hard! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flood Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 i'd be down to help out with the Pain project if you guys are seriously interested... the SHJ records barely have broken even ... but they were more of a labor of love than anything.

MattyIceyo Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 I have 0 idea who this Pain band is, but all this hype has drawn my curiosity and I would buy something out of speculation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flood Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 Pain was something like a mix of They Might Be Giants / Blink 182 / and the poppier side of high energy ska punk... everyone i knew who was into Treephort back in the day loved them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdwell Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 Tuscaloosa Represent. Seriously, it would be killer if any of their catalog got pressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

voodooman595 Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 While everyone is excited about getting Pain pressed, why not lump in The Hippos pressings? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdwell Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 I'd love to own a copy of "Forget The World" on vinyl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyregret Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 I would love to have that Hippos album or either of the Edna's Goldfish releases on vinyl! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even back in my youthful ska days I couldn't get into them OH MY GOD I HOPE THIS IS A JOKE! Treephort is fucking awesome! I would love to have that Hippos album or either of the Edna's Goldfish releases on vinyl! Both Edna's Goldfish albums please mostly just because of Veronica Sawyer on Elements of Transition. Although I would have to disagree I think Heads Are Gonna Roll should be the only Hippos album pressed. Forget the World is forgettable.
