rue Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 If HWM had done one exclusive colour pressing with a shirt no one would really be bothered; it's the fact that three different distro's are doing it and that you can't pick up the 7" either alone or as a four pack that has disappointed me. I don't begrudge the band making some cash, just think it's a brutal piece of fan-fleecing marketing at a bad time. Of course you don't have to buy it and many long-time hardcore HWM fans ain't, and that sends a message. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdwell Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 are these tracks exclusive to this 7" or are both of these going to find their way onto this full length that they're releasing as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theoriginalcowboy Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 Hate to say it. I buy vinyl, not downloads. For now though, I am just going to download the two songs and wait for the re-press. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharkie Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 Don't want the shirt? Just wait for the repress, there is going to be a repress... quit fucking crying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hudsoncomplex Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 As per the HWM facebook page, the NI pressing is sold out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowEndAutomatic Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 As per the HWM facebook page, the NI pressing is sold out. That was quicker than I thought... Oh well, still not sure if I'll go with the shirt combo or wait for the repress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peanutuk Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 Hot Water Music, what were you thinking ? I thought you cared about your fans but i've got second thoughts now. $20 for a shirt that nobody wants and a 7" that everybody wants, which comes in 3 variations + the tour 7" .....to me it looks like its just a "Cash Cow" and not a second thought has gone to the fans ! Very dissapointing and i'm passing on this until the 2nd press, so i can get what i want .......a 7" record Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well, still not sure if I'll go with the shirt combo or wait for the repress. Shouldn't be too surprising. It was 200 copies, by HWM, and sold from No Idea. If it wasn't a bundle it probably would have sold out within an hour or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No i don't think so ....its my opinion that it is a "cash cow" and if you thinks its ok to spend $60 on three t-shirt bundles then you go ahead and do it ....This is one of the reasons why i don't comment much on this site much anymore cause there are too many dicks on here !

Just Another Tom Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Yeah, i'm pretty disappointed you have to buy a shirt you don't want just to pic up a 7". Don't get me wrong i like bundles sometimes, but they should be the limited quantity item, not the actual release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hudsoncomplex Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 I'm not going to lie. I bought both the No Idea version, with a shirt for myself, and the Chunksaah version with a shirt for my wife. I had the money,so I went with it. Maybe someday the first press with help us put our kid (that we dont have yet) through college.
