mmhmm Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Cool! I didn't know it was only out of 1000. Can anyone else verify that? Sounds like combatchuckaa has the closest thing to clarity. Also, does anyone have any clue about test presses for this album? how many? any rejected test press batches? would love to have some info. combatchuckaa you shut your mouth. just trying to get the info and what better place to do it There are 50 test presses. The band put one on eBay as part of a charity auction and listed it as out of 50. Although, there could actually be 25 sets of two records each and they said out of 50 because they were auctioning only one half (the C/D vinyl- silly to do just part of the set if you ask me). As for the out of 1000, I just remember reading the drummer's blog and seeing someone ask a question about the pressing numbers and him responding saying it was out of 1000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taylo234 Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 They only auctioned the C/D side? Haha why would they do that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmhmm Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 They only auctioned the C/D side? Haha why would they do that? Haha no idea. They included a broken custom RK guitar in the auction as well...apparently a car had run over the neck or something. Shame, considering apparently only 25 of those guitars had been produced. It was a weird auction. Side thought: I'll trade many, many records for that custom Relient K guitar. Many. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beloved013 Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Hey BrianMorgante, did you ever get a shipment email? I ordered mine a week ago and got a payment confirmation, but not shipping info as of yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianmorgante Posted March 12, 2013 Author Share Posted March 12, 2013 Yes! I got mine the other day - looks and sounds great. I still need to ship the goodies out to combatchuckaa (I'm sorry I haven't done it yet, I'm waiting to finish putting together a whole bunch of orders for my band, but will most likely be doing this before the end of the day!) I'm sorry you haven't gotten yours yet, I'm sure it will be coming soon. I'd like some info on the "made in china" wooden boxes they put these in. The boxes are sealed with that little sticker, so obviously they just did some little wholesale deal from overseas, and I bet they were cheap to get made. I want to do something like this for Deadhorse! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chutterhanban Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 FYI, figured out the scoop on test presses. There was a rejected batch of 25 2xLPs that would be identified with a handwritten number and a label that says relient k. Then there was a second batch that was accepted. Those would be identified by hefty white sleeves with center holes to see the record's label which is actually blank. Dunno if anyone else cares, but there ya go. Source is Davy Basinger (Bleach vocalist), friend of mine who works with Matt Hoopes all the time. mmhmm 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bgdesign Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Still waiting on this. Shipping confirmation gives me no info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aych Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 My boxset came in last week, and one side of the box had come completely off. Fortunately, it's still one piece, and it's nothing a little wood glue can't fix, so I'm not upset about it at all. Besides, the records sound great, and that's what I bought it for! (The tote bag/photo book/box are still up for grabs, by the way.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chutterhanban Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Tell Davy we are still waiting on a new Bleach album. Haha, he knows. Honestly, I doubt it will happen. He's so busy with Eden Records, not including all his design stuff in Nashville with RK/Deas Vail/The Wedding/HOH, etc. Who knows though?!

SpazzyMcGee Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Same. Got tracking info last monday but it has never updated on usps Same thing with me.

Tell him to at least press that one record with the Bring Back the Bassline song. I could listen to that shit for the rest of all time, such a good live act too.

Eden was the head, http://www.SloSpeak.com actually has the bands he manages. Tell him to at least press that one record with the Bring Back the Bassline song. I could listen to that shit for the rest of all time, such a good live act too. it would be glorious. he's a fan of the vinylz himself, so it's always a possibility I guess. at least we should always be getting rk release on vinyl from now on!

SpazzyMcGee Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 After having it shipped on the 4th, they resent it and it finally came today. I would say it almost wasn't worth it but it looks beautiful. Kudos to the K for a great looking piece o music Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chutterhanban Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 Classy. haha. looking back, I guess i'm kinda kicking myself. at the same time, I still don't think i'd be able to do it. too much sentimental value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chhholly123 Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 I ordered this when I pre-ordered Collapsible Lung. Well, I got CL, and I got charged for everything, and it was on the packing slip, but I sure did not get this, and now it's sold out. Oh, life.

We'll see if it came today. I was gonna order another with my buddy using the discount code they sent me for CL being delayed too. It would have been like $17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
