DrownTheRiver Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 I called my local post office about it (the Allen Park one) and they said that there must be some kind of mistake in the scanning or something because it left the dispatch facility at about 5 in the morning and ended up in Albany about three hours later? EDIT: Yep, it got updated and is scheduled to arrive today. That was... weird haha. Also, has anyone who got these listened to them yet? How's the pressing sound?

snacks4all Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 Yep, same here. Expected to be here the 28th now instead of today like it was on track to be... Pretty sad now... Same here..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frankmartinez4L Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 I was emailing merchnow about this a couple days ago and they told me they had shipped it the 20th, then I get an email saying they barely shipped it out today. Oh well. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rip Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 Holy shit! Tracking lied and it actually showed up today! Pretty HAPPY now . Everything about it is glorious. Everything I wanted it to be. Only downside is no inner sleeves for the albums, but that's okay. I'll have to buy some and fix that. Anyone know the cheapest place to order them from? I don't need a lot. Just 6 actually haha.

KennyFuckingPowers Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 Just got mine in. The bottom left corner is trashed. Ripped and kinda smashed in. Fuck everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrownTheRiver Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 Mine came in today as well, a few of the LPs are very very slightly warped, but it's not making any noticeable difference in sound quality so it's all good. Inner sleeves would've been nice, but I can literally drive five minutes away and buy some for a pittance, so based on the quality of this release, considering the price, this is a very very VERY minor issue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thrice55 Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 Did Whatever I Say is Royal Ocean... Get remastered? I really really love that album but could have been mixed much better. I can't wait to get this in, hoping it was from Dallas to San Antonio... Not Dallas back to Albany Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rip Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 So has anyone listened to any of these yet? Whatever I Say Is Royal Ocean sounded great, but there were some songs on my Downtown Battle Mountain that sounded off. Like there were a couple songs where it seemed like I couldn't hear the guitar at all during some epic moments which kinda upset me. Namely on "Lemon Meringue Tie" and "The Backwards Pumpkin Song." Am I the only one or is that because of my somewhat shitty setup? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lookwhodunnit Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 i think i see one for $100 on ebay, looks like the guy from above put his up for sale, not a bad price if you ask me lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimFeerick Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 So cool seeing all these photos. We haven't even received these yet but it looks like they came out nicely. If I had any input on the pressing here's what I would have done differently.. Deathstar- Yellow vinyl DBM 2- Purple vinyl DBM 1- White or Brown Otherwise everything else looks great. I think Acceptance Speech vinyl color is the most fitting and appealing. Also I don't understand why they added our band name to deathstar and happiness as well as leaving the cd sticker label on AS. whatever the set as a whole looks titties. starjigga and Aych 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starjigga Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 yah the death star one kind of bug me ahaha it was a werid placment maybe shouldve done what they did on happiness Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hipsterasfolk Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 I wish I was able to snag one of these when they went up :'( Not paying $100-$300 on eBay for it Look sexy from what i've seen so far though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimFeerick Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 yah the death star one kind of bug me ahaha it was a werid placment maybe shouldve done what they did on happiness Yeah. I just don't understand adding our band name to everything. It's on the cover of the fucking box. Anyways. another thing I'm happy about is the border that they removed from Acceptance Speech. I thought it was weird and it didn't work with the continuity of the album art. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwhitmuzik Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 Did Whatever I Say is Royal Ocean... Get remastered? I really really love that album but could have been mixed much better. I can't wait to get this in, hoping it was from Dallas to San Antonio... Not Dallas back to Albany Pretty sure the big debate early on were that these were all just pressed from the CD masters.
