twelvegauge Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 I'm really bummed to hear about some being warped and I'm unsure where along the process it happened. The records did get screen printed though and wonder if something went wrong there. If you're fine with it, thanks for being understanding. These records were a bit of a nightmare to release as the pressing plant was difficult to work with, then a little bit of a logistical nightmare getting them screen printed, and shipped back to SF in time to get packaged up. I can tell you I worked my ass off between this record, 2 other releases on my other label, and my full-time job. Jihad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine is only warped in the sense that it's not perfectly flat. I don't really hear it affecting the sound of the record, so it doesn't bother me. A decent amount of records I get in the mail are like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apeman Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 Got mine today - slightly bent, but nothing that can't be flattened. Plays fine on my turntable.There's a tendency to single-sided lp's being warped during manufacturing, unless you put an empty groove on the other side to even it out when they're pressed. That's why some pressing plants can't or won't do them. Maybe the screen printing process also adds to the warp factor? I don't recall having any vinyl made like this (single sided + screened) that are totally flat.But that aside, great tunes as usual with Self Defense Family!
