deafmx Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 they didn't have any vinyl it's not quite finished being pressed. what did you think of The Central Division? I was referring to the Kill Them With Kindness vinyl which was available earlier in the tour. And I was impressed with The Central Division and picked up a copy of their LP. ah, I never knew they've ever had that album on vinyl with them! when I saw them with Sunny Day Real Estate about 2 years ago, they didn't and I really thought they would. glad to see some people enjoyed The Central Division, I kinda know the singer and feel like such an ass for missing them. I thought it started at 9, not 8. no shipping confirmation here either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shamrocks Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 Also, they've posted test pressings of the blue vinyl for purchase.http://btv.foxhole.info/zencart/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=38_39&products_id=866 wait what? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shamrocks Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 does anyone know the other pressing numbers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shamrocks Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 and i just cant get over 65 tests, not to mention raising the price on the second 35. Pretty crappy way for BTV to make $$ off an otherwise spectacular release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty crappy way for BTV to make $$ off an otherwise spectacular release. this and... can someone of you guess what blue/pink test pressing means? i always thought test pressings were only black and usually do no have printed labels and a record sleeve. according to the description it seems those test pressings are coloured as well. i think this is weird Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I picked up a pink copy, and I'm still glad I did, but I hope it's a legit test press, and not a regular pink labeled record with a sticker on it or something. Still excited to get this. Haven't stopped listening to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shamrocks Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 i wonder of the first batch ended up with a problem necessitating new tests, but then you would assume there wouldnt be a second variety of the regular pressing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't stopped listening to it. Got mine in today and it appears to have the same sleeve and everything just test pressing center labels.

someasiandude Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 they couldn't at least have numbered the test pressings? lame as fuck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shamrocks Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 so i got my test but not the regular release...was this a mixup or is it just not out yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cactusbot Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 It's not out. Burnt Toast sends the tests as soon as he gets them. Probably 2-3 weeks until he gets the final product. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lexicondevil Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Got mine and it sounds great. They could have gone through a little more trouble to justify the high price for a large pressing of tests. I guess I have a sharpie and I can number it myself "1/30"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hillcrest Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 I wish I had known that the test press was pink also. Bought it assuming it was black. Does anyone want mine? Annoyed I'll have two pink copies of this. Just bummed I wasn't fully educated on my purchase is all. Willing to sell or trade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wakeupandlive Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 got mine, wasnt thinking it'd be on the pink vinyl, but oh well. atleast the pink looks awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
northernfailure Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 I've never heard of any pressing plant doing colored test presses... do they have test labels? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shamrocks Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 yes they say test pressing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexicondevil Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 I don't have mine in front of me, but I remember looking at the labels and thinking they looked fake. They look more stylized than other test pressing labels that I have seen. Maybe I just haven't seen tests from where they got these pressed.

deafmx Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 let's see some pics of these tests, dammit! where were they pressed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

almightyseancore Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 i was hoping this bump was about shipping. i guess technically it was but ugh. i'm getting sick of waiting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
