mcpherson123 Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Looking for a nice, clean original copy (non-picture) rating VG+ or better. Let me know if you're interested in selling one. Thanks! EDIT: This has been acquired. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

surfingelectrode Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 I know you said you wanted an original, but you should look into the reissues. Steve Albini and Bob Weston did a great job remastering those albums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcpherson123 Posted September 14, 2011 Author Share Posted September 14, 2011 I'm definitely planning on gathering the reissue set but so far I've got every other original pressing (including Shot and Blue, minus Pure) and I just wanted to make them a happy OP family. Christ, I'm gay. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to try to get originals, but I ended up getting the entire set of reissues from a local store's closing sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcpherson123 Posted September 15, 2011 Author Share Posted September 15, 2011 Not a bad way to go about it. I'm sure those remasters are the shit considering Steve Albini did them. I doubt Capitol will ever reissue the last two records though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt Capitol will ever reissue the last two records though. Yeah, they did a great job. Loud and powerful, but not compressed or brickwalled. I don't I've ever actually heard the two Capitol records... should I check them out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcpherson123 Posted September 15, 2011 Author Share Posted September 15, 2011 Definitely! Shot is fucking great. Blue is also great. I think I might prefer Shot though there is nothing wrong with Blue which is the record I started with when I was getting in to them. They received criticism for going to Capitol and that the records on that label were maybe over-produced or even "poppy." There may be a few more layers to the songs on those records more frequently than before but its nothing they haven't done to some extent in the past. I feel they're just as worthy as the first four. I also like the more Patton-esque tone that Yow was injecting into some of his vocals more so in the last two records. Here's a great performance of the first track on Shot: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll have to check those out, then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
