AdventureIsOutThere Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Definitely crackly but it's not that terrible compared to things like TWY. For sure. I had to sell that because it was, imo, unlistenable. I don't think I'll be selling this one until a repress with some form of assurance of better quality.

I don't think I'll be selling this one until a repress with some form of assurance of better quality. Yeah, i'll probably do the same. I do love the color scheme of this whole first pressing though. I hate not actually listening to this spin--I bout burned a hole in my sunfire split of separation. AdventureIsOutThere 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

travis Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 I'd assume every color variant of this record will sound exactly the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwhitmuzik Posted September 11, 2013 Author Share Posted September 11, 2013 Like, I mean, I noticed the surface noise on mine but it wasn't really that distracting or anything. Just noticeable. I mean maybe others are worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seamoney Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 I'm cleaning mine thoroughly right now and will report back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koljou Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Like, I mean, I noticed the surface noise on mine but it wasn't really that distracting or anything. Just noticeable. I mean maybe others are worse. Same here. Mine was a bit crackley, but on the whole it was still very listenable and not overpowering. Definitely noticed it the most in the first two tracks. I'll go back and listen to it again to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chutterhanban Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 I know I'm being lazy in not looking up the song, but whatever the track before the "8 eyes all on you" song is truly unlistenable. also the beginning of the acoustic track. SO MUCH NOISE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickxmurphy Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 I checked out the documentary between classes today. It's pretty interesting. Lot's of stuff about the writing process for this record that I didn't know. Then it has your typical in-studio interviews, stock footage of the band recording, the guys goofing off, etc. So all in all, worth watching.

2moreinches Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Any idea yet if they'll do something special for vinyl for the record release show? Same goes for touche Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbruise Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 People with terrible surface noise should email no sleep. Not to be a dick, but just to inform them for the repress. chrisapple 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seamoney Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Gave it a good cleaning and it's pretty crackly like others. chutterhanban 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woah_dood Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 yeah mine is the worst in the beginning of track 3 back of your head. do you think there is anyway they would switch to a 2 lp format for the 2nd press? I mean, it would be nice.. Will Yip and that teaser interview hyped up the sound quality so much for this record and then the surface noise basically blocks it all out.

blueprintforjoy Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Not that I am ungrateful that I got this or anything, but does anyone who collects them want my piece of tape reel? I can't see myself doing anything with it other than just having it sitting on my desk and I'd rather it go to someone who appreciates it more.

seamoney Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 I would have taken a sticky note or something that let me know which song it was from instead of the case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rip Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Well I finally got mine today. Won't have a chance to listen to it until tonight, but now you guys have me worried this is gonna sound like shit. I got the opaque red. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zacooper Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Listened to this three times now. Twice on my turntable and once digital. The surface noise on my record is really bad, which is unfortunate. Tried cleaning it and it didn't help at all. As far as the music goes, what does everyone think? I had super high expectations for this record (especially after the last split came out with Braid) and while I don't dislike the record by any means, I haven't found a song yet that grabs me and pulls me in like "You Can't Fix Me" or "I Tore You Apart In My Head". Separation (and the earlier work) grabbed me immediately, this one is gonna need some more time I think. converge88 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Separation (and the earlier work) grabbed me immediately, this one is gonna need some more time I think. This album is strong, but definitely a grower. I felt the same way, looking out for songs that really hooked me at first but couldn't find any. I could sit here and whine about the production but I won't.

Separation (and the earlier work) grabbed me immediately, this one is gonna need some more time I think. I felt the same exact way (as I stated a few pages back). I've given it a few more listens and I fell in love. I still think Cut Me Open is bad, but the rest is incredible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
