veggiecorecords Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 http://www.inthecloudsrecords.com/product/athletics-who-you-are-is-not-enough From In the Clouds: "when i had first worked w/ athletics on why aren't i home? they had just finished recording their a new album - which they described as a concept record that was really 1 song broken down into 5 movements. i wasn't sure what to expect, i just remember thinking it seemed like a bold move... the album did not disappoint. as we started to discuss pressing who you are is not enough i knew how much effort they had put into the album and wanted to find a way for the packaging to also reflect the idea of being 1 thing brokendown into five parts. so i designed a package where the entire thing was cut, screen-printed, folded, wax sealed and numbered by hand. a lot of sleepless nights went into the process of making all 300 of these by hand, so i wanted the vinyl color to reflect the things that really helped everything come together - coffee & booze."

The Vool Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Is the song in the video an Athletics song from the new record? It sounds great! Never heard of them before...and creating the package looks like a sh*tload of work! Nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never heard of them before...and creating the package looks like a sh*tload of work! Nice! Yes, that song is from the EP. The entire EP is a masterpiece in my opinion. Ordered Jack & Coke immediately since that is my favorite mixed drink haha. The packaging looks outstanding. In The Clouds puts a lot of work into every one of their releases.

jerseydave77 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Had to restrain from buying a Test. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
masonxstorm91 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Had to restrain from buying a Test. same here but my reasoning was there was no way I could make the 45$ back if I ever wanted to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
futures Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Might as well add this to the thread - Some of the guys in Athletics are starting a side project called Ghost House. No music yet, but there's a teaser video on their facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/ghosthousemusic?fref=ts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmoVeganBoy Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Damn, didn't know there were even test presses available. Guess they sold out by the time I checked. I do want one, but probably for the best that I missed out. Gotta stop spending so damn much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cwhitmuzik Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Really want to wait for Owel but I don't want to miss this. Maybe I'll order then combine later on if possible, sure Dan will help me out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek™ Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Only 300 pressed in total? I imagine these won't last too terribly long... especially with it being their latest release. I'd love to see both variants a bit closer... but aside from just looking more attractive, I've got to go with the Cup O' Joe for the backstory that batman posted. batman 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
