Sad Heart Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 My copy of New Plastic Ideas and The Future of What showed up today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek™ Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Hell yeah. How do they look / sound? Doubt you've had a chance to sit down with both already but I'm curious. Either way, I love Numero's mix of these "ready-to-ship" exclusives alongside their traditional pre-orders. I almost feel spoiled by the idea of seeing a record drop online, buying it, and having it show up in <2 weeks. A rarity in 2022. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sad Heart Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Definitely a treat when you buy a record and it shows up in a couple weeks; you’re not wrong. These will hold me over until the September releases. They look great, standard packaging from Numero — no complaints. Haven’t had a chance to spin them, but that’ll change tonight. The purple disc is a little more red to me, but that might just be my copy. Probably just got more of the red than blue pellets when mixing. I still like it so no big deal.

Weird part it was showing October when I clicked it, but now it isn’t. Might be going crazy. Edited September 12, 2022 by Sad Heart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The internet destroyed my ability to wait for things so although I bought everything in the bundle I made two separate orders and ate the extra shipping to get mine haha. Dessau is such a great pressing sound quality and presentation wise. I'd probably rebuy individual colored copies of the rest of the discography if Numero put them out even though I have the box set... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a live 7” that came with the first 500 copies of the box but you can at least get it for kind of cheap. I haven’t listened to mine in 10 years, so wouldn’t say it’s essential at all. 4 hours ago, Shelby said: The internet destroyed my ability to wait for things so although I bought everything in the bundle I made two separate orders and ate the extra shipping to get mine haha.

Dessau is so good and some of those versions have become my preferred ones. Really wish all the songs from White Birch were on there though. One of the best albums of all time. And I’d end up buying colored copies too. I have been meaning to buy some of these newer Unwound pressings and am hoping they have them at these upcoming shows. I’ll probably put money away and grab them there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The variants are cool looking, and they are all flat and clean. I actually spin them instead of the box sets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe make it the only way to get a copy of the S/T included, too. Outside of Challenge though, which of these reissues feature unoriginal art? Or was that the only one? The kicker is that even if you could get something decent for selling your colored variants, and put it towards a lavish boxset… you wouldn’t. 😏 The disease™ is an offshoot of the hobby™ but way more concerning. When you’ve got it, you’ve really got it. Jokes aside I do love these reissues, and the attention that has gone into ‘em is top notch. They’re prized variants worth owning even if they never command big bucks and that’s fine by me. Really cool set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re prized variants worth owning even if they never command big bucks and that’s fine by me. Really cool set. Think we’ve discussed this before, but personally, I only have the box sets, and got rid of all the original LPs I had. I was going to, but didn’t pull the trigger on the stand alone reissues. I still may, but this concept would diminish that desire. It is kind of strange to include s/t to the original box set, but not give it an individual repress. I’ve been waiting to see if they we’re going f to do that album. I didn’t even notice the Challenge cover until now, I’m a such an idiot. The disease started with baseball cards when I was 5, only got worse when it switched to physical music at 10. The last 27 years have been fucked! Haha I need to try and sell my stand alone tickets and go to the big Numero banger on Feb 18th & 19th.

Derek™ Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 Whoops, my bad. I mistook you for someone else who had no interest in the standalone reissues… for like 3 posts, but then ended up buying them anyway and confessing to the thread.
