The scarlette is definitely slicker if it turns out resembling the mock-up they used, but that clear is prone to sounding better and looks a bit nicer with the center labels.  Really surprised Newbury’s is a smidge cheaper than Numero was charging for their variant, too.

I didn’t see it is cheaper! Didn’t even think to look as Repetition from Newbury was more. I know clear is popular, and it’s great that options are there for people to choose.

 

I don’t really buy the vinyl color/design is more likely to have sound problems. I know a lot of people talk about it, but my experience just doesn’t line up with black being better or solid being better than designs, etc. I have so many black vinyl records that are noisy or have defects and I also have dead quiet color designs. 


Besides, I had to go with Scarlette. Not only is the song awesome, but the video creeps me out.

Anyone know where to get a copy of Rat that isn’t double the price? No idea where my copy is and need to replace it. I’ll pay discogs price if I have to, but figured I’d ask. 
 

Also the scarlet variant came out amazing. Really happy with it. Gave it a clean in the ultrasonic cleaner and it’s dead quiet.

Nah Rat has been OOS everywhere for a while now and Numero said no repress. I passed on a $70 copy last year and I'm still mad about it.

I got scared for a second thinking that is the one I don’t have. I was almost positive I had Kid is Gone for the longest time until it turned out I have never owned it. Or maybe I had it at one point and it disappeared. It’s one of the only things that has made me feel like I am actually losing my mind.

For a while there I was getting the comps mixed up in my head, too.  Or at least KIG and RC.  Funnily enough, Kid Is Gone is still the only one I haven't pulled the trigger on, either.

This has got me scratching my head.  I’ll pick up KIG but you gotta’ snag Empire if you don’t own any of their other records individually.

I actually just bought Empire and Kid Is Gone from Numero the other day. Went ahead and grabbed Karate's S/T, since it's the only one of the represses I didn't grab yet. I guess I somehow misplaced my copy of Rat and Kid, sigh. But at least 3 of the 4 are still available via their site. 

 

No Energy is definitely my favorite of them all.

Same here. By quite a big margin. I love everything they have ever done but Repetition will always be my favorite.

Also, don't forget that Giant Henry LP which is kinda sorta pre-Unwound

I need to pull that one out one of these days. I don’t think I’ve listened to it since the RSD it came out.

I meant to snag it from Numero when ordering that last Karate record. When Unsolved or the Rex stuff comes out I'll make sure to grab a copy. Same goes for the other two boxsets I'm missing.
