000000 Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 our Photo Album is MEGA warped. Working through them in album and so far it's the only one. Also, unlike some of the other posts on here, ours seem to all be properly labeled. you sure? virtually everyone else's is wrong...the records have the proper labels in each but the wrong music...

pushbacktosquare Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 They should just make the albums available individually to make up for this fuck up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thom Yorkified Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 I think they should make them individually available. I see no reason not to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kjkenney Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 by now I doubt they'll have too much money left over to fund something like that. I really like the box idea but this is pretty laughable about how this was handled. I think Hydra Head or Robotic Empire should just do every box set ever.

They should just make the albums available individually to make up for this fuck up. You guys don't know anything about artist in residence do you? Barsuk didn't press these and they already said they have no plans to. A in r only does boxets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thom Yorkified Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Barsuk should remove their heads from their asses then. $'s to be made son Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kjkenney Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 yeah Barsuk just took the money for licensing this to A in R. Take money, wipe hands. boom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mindovermatter Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 yeah Barsuk just took the money for licensing this to A in R. Take money, wipe hands. boom. Yep. Easier money has never been made...and they are free and clear of this whole pressing debacle as a result. ...except for those who may struggle to realize that Barsuk didn't press it and the AinR did.

futures Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Finally got my boxset. #85. I haven't gotten a chance to spin any of them yet, though. I will definitely do so tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David The Gnome Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 So far the records sound fantastic but I plan on giving them a good cleaning when I have more time. My stability EP is warped as hell. Hopefully the replacement won't be. Same here. It's the only one of the set that is warped for me. Plays perfectly; just looks like an angry ocean.

noalarmplanet Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 This box set is my favorite april fools days prank. knifeparty 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
futures Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 ^Hah. For the people who have noticed that some records are warped: Is this something that is only visible once the record is on the platter? Or is the warping obvious enough to see when just simply holding the record? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pushbacktosquare Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Wait, sorry if i missed this but have they actually already addressed how they are going to fix this? Are they sending out replacements? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaeptn_tofu Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Despite all the wrongs and mistakes of this box, I really can't wait to hold this one in my hands! (no shipping confirmation yet, ordered on november 10th). I wonder if the issue with the wrong speed of "trans" is told to ainr and if so, will they also repress this LP?

shaangie Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Ordered this back in November. A little nervous! Could everyone post with the emails they've been going back and forth between AiR, so I could get an idea of this mishap? I'm also considering asking for a half-refund for this mishap. I think that's reasonable enough for the amount of fuckery and delays this poor set has suffered. Really excited about the sound quality though. Praying for no missing/warped records like some have reported. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are going to be replacing the mislabeled records, so your set will be whole and fancy...eventually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
futures Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 I'm listening to Transat now. Couple pops during The New Year but nothing too bad. There's so much more depth to these songs that you just can't hear on shitty mp3s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erthan Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 #527 here. Exact same problems as everyone else obviously. There was a hunk of glue on the bottom of Transatlanticism as well that took a bit of the jacket with it. Damn this thing is pretty tho.

I didn't realize until it was on the platter because I didn't check beforehand but yes, the warping on my Stability EP is easily noticeable when holding the record. I'm surprised that the needle doesn't jump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
