jeffnovak Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Grabbed a 180 gram. I've passed on buying an original for far too long and my CD copy is almost dead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crapforgenius Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Can't decide if I need this. If you think you do, you probably do and will regret not getting it later. That's my motto, anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derby625 Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Does anyone have the balls to check out with this?! If you have a subscription, the link shows that it's $19.79. Otherwise it's 10k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcpherson123 Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Uh oh... someone's maxing the cart for availability... A mortal sin here.... Or was that DF? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcpherson123 Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Black: 265 Green: 120 At this moment. Shit is flying off the shelves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamubro Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Damn...people are loving them some green vinyl! Didn't think they would be selling faster than the 180 gram. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nothingnatural Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Uh oh... someone's maxing the cart for availability... A mortal sin here.... I hate when people do that but it only really makes a difference when it comes to much more limited items. I'm amazed at how many younger people here like Hum. I'm also surprised the green is selling quicker than the 180g. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
throwgncpr Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 is this going to get a second repress after these sell? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcpherson123 Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Well, I only did it for a brief moment and then promptly returned my cart back to zero on both items. I'm sure no one was screwed out of a copy. They're selling fast but not fast enough for me to have prevented a transaction. I think people are getting more and more into the whole vinyl color matching cover art thing. I was torn. I only bought the black because its black. The weight wasn't a selling point in fact I prefer middle to light weights on records. Makes them seem more classic like the good ol' days. So yeah, I was torn so I bought both. I actually think that a translucent green like the first press would have been cooler than the Pantone match of the cover but I'm sure this will look pretty damn swell.

mcpherson123 Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 is this going to get a second repress after these sell? I imagine SRC will have no problem doing another run if these sell out in a day or two. Who wouldn't? I'm betting a great many of the ones sold today are going straight to eBay to be passed off as original presses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robobob Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Ordered both colors. As for the younger people getting into hum, I think it just has to do with these current popular bands being compared to them in album reviews and the bands themselves citing then as influences in interviews etc. I think it's awesome. I know Title Fight's "Floral Green" has been hugely successful, and the album rules, but kids who like the album and want to find similar sounding artists/records have a chance to stumble across some music they would have otherwise never listened to.

crapforgenius Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 I'm also surprised the green is selling quicker than the 180g. Personally, I've always preferred colors and especially in a situation like this, where the original is black only it makes the reissue make more sense. I don't have an original - even when it was new it always eluded me - but if/when I do find a copy, I'll then have a black AND green copy rather than two blacks, retroactively justifying the reissue purchase. It makes sense in my head, anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as it sucks, yeah there will probably be a couple of these on ebay , but wasn't the original in a single jacket and not a gatefold like this? though, people on ebay can be pretty stupid anyways and will probably be duped unfortunately Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcpherson123 Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Yes, the jacket differences are there as you said but people are constantly duped on eBay. Its amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
