sirdubblin Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Not sure if there are any fans out there... personally love this record and it's a hard one to find. Magic Bullet Records just completed a repress this month and have 3 different colored variants to choose from. Not sure how many they have left but if you've been thinking about pulling the trigger, better move fast. The cover is pretty... uh... how should I say this... lame? But the records themselves are gorgeous and the music speaks for itself. Only $16.99 http://www.magicbulletrecords.com/mailorder.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajismetal Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 I picked up both the S/T and Young Mountain. They arrived on Monday and really happy with the records. In addition, I caved and ordered Tunnel Blanket this last night. Album is really different but has really grown on me. http://hobbledehoyrecords.com/store/this-will-destroy-you-tunnel-blanket/ Shipping is way cheaper through interpunk. http://interpunk.com/item.cfm?Item=195498 (Those two links where posted by someone else on another thread, thanks for the heads up.)

jonnystorm777 Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 I own this album and have loved it for years. Also they played one of the songs from the album at the end of the movie MONEYBALL. I heard it couldn't believe it was in that movie of all movies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexH. Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 I see this record all the time, how is it hard to find? This is like the millionth pressing of it, I can't imagine it's ever been out of print for more than a few months. Also, the cover is obviously awesome.

Good stuff - I'm gonna pick up the others. Surprised you guys like the cover.. guess I'm in the minority on this one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
llamason56 Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 i personally like it but i wouldn't mind seeing the CD art in the vinyl format Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackholesun Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 The CD art is kinda boring. Typical post-rock book looking album cover. The vinyl version is badass. It's obviously tongue-in-cheek but way more interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catalinacaper Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 The best use of this album cover I've ever seen was when this grungy hipster kid in my Sci/Tech Comm class used it as a background for a power point presentation on AIDS.

plasma36 Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 I see this record all the time, how is it hard to find? This is like the millionth pressing of it, I can't imagine it's ever been out of print for more than a few months.Also, the cover is obviously awesome. From the Magic Bullet website: "Now in the webstore: THIS WILL DESTROY YOU S/T 2xLP (BAJILLIONTH PRESS – I’ve literally lost count at this point). On the heels of “The Mighty Rio Grande” being featured throughout and closing out the “Best Picture” montage at the Oscars this year, you might suspect that we might have experienced a spike in sales. That would be putting it lightly. Within 24 hours of broadcast, every single copy of S/T was sold out from both us and our distributors worldwide. Emergency represses of both formats had to be implemented immediately. CD’s were back in circulation within a week of the show and now a fresh shipment of the vinyl is upon us."

kjkenney Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 does anyone else have issues with the non solid color presses of this? Side A and B, from a couple presses ago on the recycled vinyl is reeeeeally bad; constant pops and cracks throughout. Its most noticeable at the beginning of the sides, first 3 or 4 minutes, but is still noticeable on the other tracks. was thinking about just picking up another copy of this, but wanted to know if this is common on this or if I was just an unlucky consumer.

gmoney80 Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 My copy is on recycled vinyl and it is noisy as hell, hopefully they eventually repress on solid black. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
