topshelfsquad Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 These should all be mailed out by end of day today (unless you have a TWIABP record in your order). TheRareCreature 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shelby Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 Got my copy and it's pretty warped. It goes with the music though since the stylus looks like it's having a lotta fun as the record spins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjb2k1 Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 got mine the other day, have not spun it yet. did give a visual inspection as it was on my hot, humid porch all day and i can't see any warps. so woo! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rip Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 Got a shipping email today from Topshelf today! I'm assuming it's for this, it didn't say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrewest Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Got my splatter bundle today. Got medium amounts of splatter & looks sweet spinning on the pizza slipmat. Gotta say though, I like the visuals much better than the music. 4-5 times through & I'm pretty bored with it. All the songs run together for me. I don't think it comes close to "...Prefrontal Cortex". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrice55 Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Got my splatter in and it looks fantastic! But on a negative note... The first track is unlistenable cause it skips like a fucking mad man. Not a single pop or skip on either side besides the first track... Anyone else have this problem?? I would say it could be my stylus or dust, but I just spun the Everley record that came in also and it's flawless. Let me know if anyone else has the same problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say it could be my stylus or dust, but I just spun the Everley record that came in also and it's flawless. Let me know if anyone else has the same problem First track on the B-side skips pretty bad on mine, my splatter is warped (Like a lot of people it seems like) but its still playable so its no big deal. Kind of a bummer but W/E. Awesome packaging on this, love it. Will be picking up another copy for sure cause this will be spun a lot. Love the bundle stuff also, so happy with it all. I don't think it comes close to "...Prefrontal Cortex". Personally think this album smashes Prefrontal, but both are sooo good. Wish the new version of Learning Curves was on the record.

Can't wait to actually get home and fully spin it with intention to actually give it a good listen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigbruise Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Small skip on the B side as well. Can't remember where exactly. I also find Prefrontal much more enjoyable than this. It's still a really fun listen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrice55 Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 After a closer look... Mine skips cause it's severely warped on the outside, quick easy fix for me is to just move my counter weight up to apply more pressure to the record as it spins. Sounds great now cause its not jumping off the record when it hits a warped area Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotta say though, I like the visuals much better than the music. 4-5 times through & I'm pretty bored with it. All the songs run together for me. I don't think it comes close to "...Prefrontal Cortex". It's just kind of there, nothing stands out at all. I don't know if its the production, the songwriting, or just everything, but it's very monotonous. Good for them that they're getting some praise for it though..

I saw someone mention on ap.net that the singer sounds very monotone throughout the record and I 100% agree. Way more range on "Prefrontal...". I think his voice is what makes everything blend together. I'll still listen to it, & I bet live everything sounds a million times better, but it just doesn't come close to "Prefrontal" as of now.

Shelby Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Personally I think Prefrontal is 2 or 3 songs too long. I'll wait til the new music smell wears off to judge them though. Right now I'm enjoying the crap out of LP2 but I can also see the lack of a song like Alligator Bop disappointing people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pickrunner18 Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 just got the last copy of this and one of the last copies of their first album. good timing eh, I had no idea who these guys were until a couple weeks ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2moreinches Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 I see the record release show is tonight and I missed out on the first press. I'd love it if someone could snag an extra if they're going cause I want to own this album, it's wonderful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ntslash Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 They have copies still on the A Great Big Pile of Leaves site. Oxblood and Mint left. Looks like plenty of oxblood. http://agreatbigpileofleaves.bigcartel.com/product/you-re-always-on-my-mind-vinyl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
