3arl Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Well.. that's crazy. He seemed like a really helpful/on-point guy. He was dishing out partial refunds left & right for people who missed the bundle option for the euro variants. How is he disagreeing with screenshot of your payment? He could look that shit up on his account in under five minutes. It doesn't seem like it's the Big Scary Monsters guy I'm talking to. I emailed Awesome Distro who are apparently the ones sending these out. Maybe I should try and email him directly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David The Gnome Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 why is this an issue...did you contact them about delivery and this is when you found out? making me worried as well.Right? I wouldn't expect shipping notice for an overseas shipment. I'm just confused now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3arl Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Right? I wouldn't expect shipping notice for an overseas shipment. I'm just confused now. I didn't expect shipping notice. But I hadn't been getting any of the update emails that other people had. So I inquired. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dasubman1138 Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 Here is his 30 minute accoustic set at Vintage Vinyl the day the albums came out. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bldjh7Q4sAM&feature=youtu.be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rip Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 Just got an update from Amazon. I should get Bulldozer somewhere between October 30th and November 2nd and Bubblegum between December 11th and December 14th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David The Gnome Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 Here's a message/picture of the purple glitter variant that Kevin Douch sent to a friend. "Sorry for the delay, been waiting for my own copies to turn up so I can take photos. Photo of Bulldozer attached. Outer sleeve with spot UV gloss, printed inner sleeve with centre holes, double-sided insert and purple vinyl with silver glitter, limited to 100. We currently have 20 of this and Bubblegum left then they are gone for good" I'm assuming that the UK bubblegum glitter variant will look exactly the same considering they accidently pressed both of them on purple vinyl. I'm liking the deep red look to it. I think it looks great as a whole. My body is definitely ready. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ilikeguitars Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 the more important question is, how do those copies sound? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David The Gnome Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 the more important question is, how do those copies sound? Hopefully dansar will be able to let us now soon. I've never spun a glitter record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilikeguitars Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 Hopefully dansar will be able to let us now soon. I've never spun a glitter record. What would worry me about the glitter is that there would be a lot of surface noise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shamrocks Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 yeah thats the problem ive had with hazy records, but not splattery ones...we will see which one this falls closer to. but i mean its not like any of listen to them anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dansar Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 Hopefully dansar will be able to let us now soon. I've never spun a glitter record. I have a couple of parcels to collect today from the post office which i believe are these so i will let you know how the sound later. I do have a couple of glitter 7 inch's and i cant remember any problem with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David The Gnome Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 I love that people have these before the Kickstarters. Figures. Why? Backing a Kickstarter has never meant that you'd get your incentive earlier than anyone else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmoVeganBoy Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 Why? Backing a Kickstarter has never meant that you'd get your incentive earlier than anyone else. This is true and I agree. But I can understand Kickstarter backers being frustrated because they are the reason that these albums were funded/made and they feel that because of that they deserve to be the first ones with their hands on the product. And technically they were in terms of the digital album. Vinyl is obviously different and the Kickstarter records experienced delays as many records do, so the backers just need to be aware that there is much less control over when people get the physical version compared to the digital version. They just need to understand that and be okay with it. Patience young grasshoppers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They just need to understand that and be okay with it. Patience young grasshoppers. I totally agree with you too. Sure, it could be frustrating. I just look at it like this; We're getting exclusive variants and had an opportunity, if taken or not, to get an exclusive Bootleg LP. Other than just wanting to support KD in making these albums and touring them, you're getting those exclusive options. If it takes a little extra time to get to us due to manufacturing delays, so be it. Hell, the retail copies could've experienced manufacturing delays and the KS variants could've come out early. It's just not the way the cookie crumbled in this circumstance. EmoVeganBoy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3arl Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 Also I'm assuming that the BSM variant was pressed in the UK and therefore had a slightly different timetable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seth33 Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 Yeah Kevin came out and said one of the records was delayed at the pressing plant. Should big scary monster (who pressed then in a different country) hold them back because the US pressing got delayed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kas1985 Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 Decent interview with Kevin for anyone who is interested: http://www.pollstar.com/news_article.aspx?ID=807798 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maximuss Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 got these 2 albums in and they are good, only i never buy this type of vinyl again, you hear crackling(english?) all the time. Beside that the sound is good. Everytime i clean it i have these little glitters on my brush. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
