kriss Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Not gonna happen, I couldnt sell Local H vinyl at HT. I don't think you could sell Local H vinyl anywhere, honestly. /sick burn +1 (they're good, I just never cared for them personally). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deafmx Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 yesssss. I would buy all represses, even if I just got the Portrait SV for $30 on RSD and have owned MA since 1999. i think 180 gram is a necessity, the SV press of Portrait was awesome. I'd actually be more down for black or solid colors, most marble or swirl pressings in 2011 really sounded like shit to me. the black/dark red idea sounds good. I'd say this order would work best: (and preferably nice 2xLP gatefolds for big $$$$) Antichrist Superstar Portrait Smells Like Children Mechanical Animals Golden Age Of Grotesque Last Tour On Earth Holy Wood The High End Of Low Eat Me Drink Me the Manson vinyl market has ALWAYS been there.

travis Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 I might try a couple Manson records if they agree to do 1 and it sells well Ill ask about others. Eat Me Drink Me and High End of Low will most definitely not be a part of that tho, no way could I sell enough of those albums to even consider asking about getting them pressed. IF Antichrist happens Ill probably ask about Mechanical Animals after that then we'll see what else if those sell well. We're getting a little ahead of ourselves tho, I dont even know if Antichrist will happen. I havent even asked them about that yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcpherson123 Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Just show them the popsike page for it. http://www.popsike.com/php/quicksearch.php?searchtext=antichrist+superstar&x=0&y=0 They'll jump on it. If Warner went for Deftones, I can't see Interscope not going for Manson. Then again, we have no idea what their priorities are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seafoamgreen Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Skip Smells Like Children too. The SV version only sells for $30-40 so the market isn't there for a repress I don't think. Also, you could sell a TON of Local H... in Zion, IL where they're from. That being said, I listened to Hamfisted a lot on Walkman on my paper route.

mcpherson123 Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 I vote AGAINST skipping SLC. 30-40 is nowhere near a justifiable price to pay and most of what I've seen has been well above that amount. I'm certain most of the same market that would purchase Portrait and ACSS would be happy to pay reasonable retail price for that one as well... or just steal it from an Urban Outfitters.

kriss Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Yeah, I'd like to see a SLC re-press as well. I agree with Travis though that we may be running before we walk with expecting this - really, ACS and MA would still be more than enough.

The market for Local H on vinyl is there, prob not a Hot Topic type thing though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deafmx Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 even if HT can't sell these Manson records, they would definitely sell in all other markets. i just think you should let them know about the demand for the entire catalog when trying for a couple. it's worth a shot.

travis Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Labels have minimums when doing represses and Majors usually have pretty high minimums. Im sure I could sell a few copies of those last couple Manson records but not nearly enough to make it worth my time asking about them. The label isnt just going to repress those albums on their own just to do it cause their ebay prices are high. They just dont operate like that. Ill ask about ACS then IF that happens and it sells really well Ill ask about a couple others. Just letting you guys know right now I have no plans on getting the entire Manson catalog reissued. Plus I have other records Im working on getting reissued as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
almightyseancore Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 as off topic as local h is to manson i agree, i would love to see 180g pressings of good as dead and pack up the cats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typically over $100. I paid over 100, and that's last second bidding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The demand exists for more than a lot of things that do get pressed. Local H is still played at hipster bars and pool halls. Perhaps people would like them better if they were Eddie Vedder.

It would be REALLY expensive and Id be able to sell a few at HT then Id end up having to mark down the hundreds upon hundreds of leftover copies that didnt sell. If his label wants to make a vinyl box set Id carry a few at HT but I wont be approaching the label to make them exclusively for HT. Im gonna start checking on Anti-Christ soon tho once I wrap up a couple other things Im doing with Universal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
