towniecore Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Locks you into droppin major dough on the 5 pack to make sure you get the rare variant. Very sneaky it only does that if you care about records on a collectors level as opposed to a musical level. Can't it be both? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lonesomexloveus Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 it only does that if you care about records on a collectors level as opposed to a musical level. Can't it be both? they're not mutually exclusive, so yes. i don't get the point of variant collecting or feeling the desire to have the most exclusive copy if you're just listening to it and not planning to sell it down the road, however. but to each their own!

If I have an option between a Bud Light and a Newcastle I'm going to take the Newcastle. I will still be just drinking it and not planning on selling it down the road I just prefer the less common variant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(unless i'm confused - i don't drink alcohol) a more accurate one would be drinking a bud light in an actual bud light bottle or a bud light in a newcastle bottle. still the same taste but just in different packaging. same album, different color.

Haha lets put it this way; if for some reason I lost everything I owned except my records I'd rather have all rare variants than less rare. Given the choice between the two I'll take the more rare 98% time (2% is for when 180g is not the most rare) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenixinflight Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 Tax rebate came just in time for this baby. New song is fucking rad. Snagged a Coke Bottle variant, caus even if Black is the rarest variant, I'd rather have colour vinyl any day of the week. To each their own, though.

Derek™ Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 Snagged a Coke Bottle variant, caus even if Black is the rarest variant, I'd rather have colour vinyl any day of the week. To each their own, though. Similar logic on my end. I couldn't care less about how rare the variants are - I'm more about sweet looking wax. I was torn between the coke bottle, clear, and translucent gray variants. The latter two, I think, would go with the cover flawlessly. But I was compelled to go coke, for whatever reason. Probably to keep my II.OI.-coke bottle streak going. (Why yes. I'm well aware that no one cares.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenixinflight Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 At the end of the day, I'm just excited to hear the record. Should be pretty sweet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

serum7 Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 so the record leaked yesterday/today, any thoughts?? Love, love, love it. Loved it when he played it for my friends and I a month or so ago when he was doing merch for the Swellers, love it more now that I get to soak it in.

jerseydave77 Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 That's a huge pressing. Someone on here predicted the black would be the most limited variant so I followed - nice call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

multiplexor Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 Got my clear gray one yesterday. It could just be my equipment, but it's really quiet. Anyone else? Edit: I guess my trusty Quasar crapped out between this and the record I put on twenty minutes before. Sad day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmoney Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 I just listened to this band for the first time because they are opening for TITR on Saturday and doing an acoustic instore with them too. It's actually pretty good! Haha! Is this their best? Also someone sell me a black. And what kind of merch do they have on tour?
