hipfunkrock34 Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 i can't find a decent torrent of this damn thing anywhere and it drops officially tomorrow. i really want to listen to it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knowyourborders Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Haha I really don't start listening to Christmas music until after Thanksgiving, but when this came I couldn't help but check it out. Ended up listening to it like three times in one sitting (it does have a fairly short run time). Nice packaging and the color is cool, but yeah, super flimsy. I guess my opinion is biased because I'm a total sucker for Christmas music but I really really like this. Digging the song choices a lot. I'm probably going to play it a ton this season!

kylekrische Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Picked it up for the wife and I. Got her the mittens to ensure it couldn't be mistaken as mostly a present for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

batman Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 picked this up at hastings earlier for 19.99. the packaging is awesome--the "card" was a nice touch, and the snowflake inner sleeve looks really nice. i haven't listened yet--debating whether or not to wait until thanksgiving... also, zooey d. is so dreamy O_O Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diabretic Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 mine came in today, they mailed it priority and that was very surprising considering they shipped it for free. Haven't listened yet, debating on waiting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retrospectacle Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Did anyone else notice indie shops giving away She & Him Christmas wrap free with purchase? Lunchbox in Charlotte has a few left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shinji Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 Time to fight Ben Gibbard Nah man, they just divorced, now's your chance! Also, just ordered this, I cannot listen 'til first snowfall though, but it will be hard to wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brandon260 Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 Any pressing info for this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharkticon Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 Unlimited. It's She & Him. None of their albums are hard to find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loveisdrunk Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 I listened to this and mine's VERY noisy, even after a cleaning. Anybody else have this issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lonesomexloveus Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 I listened to this and mine's VERY noisy, even after a cleaning. Anybody else have this issue? i only listened to side A, but i noticed that it was fairly noisy. i'm not an audiophile at allllll, but i think i noticed it more than usual because it's such a sparse, quiet album.

Shinji Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 Yeah, it's really really noisy on the first tracks of both sides, and I know this probably sounds quite lame, but I think that it makes it more, I don't know, nostalgic for me, haha.

almightyseancore Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 uh you can tell she has perfect voice for christmas music from http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0319343/ ...its elf if you're too lazy to click Shit, I completely forgot that she was in that, I now know which movie to rewatch all winter long.

kriss Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 I've given this a listen a few times now and I don't know, it's just still not my thing personally. I think it's certainly better than most Christmas music I've heard, but the song selection is really obvious and well treaded so I didn't get anything out of hearing their interpretations.

knowyourborders Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 I really like it a lot. I've probably played it a dozen times. Haven't had an issues with it and it sounds good to me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jipc Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 Just spun this along with Bright Eyes Christmas (2 very different records i can tell you!!!) whilst making xmas greeting cards with my daughter. Very nice... didnt notice any noise though. Its a UK copy from Domino... different mastering/pressing plant perhaps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
makeshiftrigger Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 The download I be sounds good. To whoever doesn't like it I'd perhaps trade for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajxd Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 Horrible pressing. Sounds dirty, and I have a VPI 16.5 record cleaning machine. Also 110g vinyl for a very quiet record? That's dumb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shitty Rambo Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 Guess I won't be buying this to play Christmas morning. Gonna creep out grandma with the Bright Eyes Christmas album instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
