manueledge Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 I also prefer North, when it came out I couldn't stop playing it and I'll most likely have it on my TT constantly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woofwoofgrr Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Whelp, it looks like i'm buying 3 more copies of this album... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slamster17 Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Ugh the green sounds so tempting...so much for saving money... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
searos Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Happy with my red copy but this is great for those who did not get a copy. Flippers won't be able to overprice copies and everyone can get this album. Also stoked for North. "Break Myself" is one of my favorite songs Andrew has ever written.

3arl Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Also, it crazy that Modern Vinyl finally has an exclusive announcement that hasn't been made here yet. I guess there's a first time for everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffbloom Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Also, it crazy that Midern Vinyl finally has an exclusive announcement that hasn't been made here yet. I guess there's a first time for everything. I think Property of Zach did first. Ross was tweeting back and forth to POZ this afternoon.

jonnywreck Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Hopefully these copies don't look like shit. Looks like I'm gonna unload my red and white copies. Shoot me a PM if anyone is interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
searos Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Red looked bad? That is probably my favorite red vinyl. It fits so well and sounded great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnywreck Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 MY BAD. Sound like shit. Both copies I got had repetitive surface noise on Konstantine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3arl Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 MY BAD. Sound like shit. Both copies I got had repetitive surface noise on Konstantine. Well if sound is your problem (which I don't personally see why it would be, my copy sounds great) then I wouldn't expect it to be improved by this new pressing.

If my copies sound like shit, and yours doesn't, then I believe that there may be a chance it would probably improve in the new pressing.

000000 Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 If my copies sound like shit, and yours doesn't, then I believe that there may be a chance it would probably improve in the new pressing. Might want to check and make sure your cartridge is aligned properly. If it starts off fine but gets lousy towards the center you might need to adjust it a smidge.

I've never had any issues with any other record. I tried to adjust something, but my knowledge of turntable mechanics really is piss poor. I'll try to figure it out.

futures Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 I'm going to hang on to my white copy and skip the repress. I'm totally stoked on the pressing of North, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isavedlatin54 Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 even my white (after a deep clean) still has some surface noise. Im going to pick this up in hopes it sounds better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patrickemmons Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 As many of you know, I did the art layout & made the test press sleeves for this and all of the other ETR releases. I am putting my townhouse up for sale next month so I can purchase a bigger house w/ a bigger garage to do all of my work out of, so I am going to be putting up a bunch of records on eBay either tonight or tomorrow night. One of the records I'll be listing is the very rare Test Pressing from this album - only 5 exist. If you've got the cash, bid hard - otherwise, spread the word so I can get some $$ for the $10,000-12,000 we'll need at closing when we buy a new house. Here is a photo of the sleeve: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmoVeganBoy Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 ETR just posted to Facebook saying that the green variant was up and available and then took it down a minute later haha. Weird. Looks real nice though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patrickemmons Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 that sleeve looks great! Thank you! The black & white images are printed onto the thick paper via inkjet and the red is screened Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lfisher Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Definitely planning on picking up one of the green. Just as a sidenote, if anyone is interested, I'm looking to trade my black for a red. Doubtful, I know, but thought I'd throw it out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
