Finally got Black Tomb from Totem Cat. Not so sure about that label. Had to remind the guy twice to ship my record.

Also, finally streamed the new Monolord. At first, I was digging the new sound, but by the end I wasn't so sure that I need to buy the record. Any other stoner doom coming out that people are actually excited about? I'm getting a little bored.

I got the new primitive man in the mail yesterday. Pretty excited to see them at the end of the month with bell witch. 

 

I have been buying less and less in general but even less in this space. I have just had no time to listen and explore new things so i have been gravitating to my usual things.

Same.  And that new Sleep album we were promised in 2017 seems like its probably definitely going to be pushed until whenever never.

I love Sleep but they seem more like a merch company than a real band to me these days...

 

I need to check out the new Loss record that came out earlier this year, I've been enjoying the Cavernlight and Ragana albums which both have doom/black elements in there, also interested to hear then new Primitive Man.

 

Subrosa Subdued live set at Roadburn is getting a release, vinyl for 2018 apparently

Yeah...I don't expect to ever actually see another SLEEP album, and I'm both bummed, and somehow kind of relieved at the same time. I don't even want it to come out if it is going to disappoint, and it'll be near impossible to top Holy Mountain and Dopesmoker.

Thought I read MP say they had the new material ready to lay down. But yeah, Sleep gonna Sleep.

 

Listening to the new With the Dead. Not sure I'm digging the vocal approach on this one. A little Atriarch-y.

The vocals are awful. Glad i didnt pre order it. Made it through about 3 songs and turned it off.

Bummer about WtD.  Exactly right on Sleep

Come on guys. That Sleep album is deemed to be amazing. The groove on The Clarity was well worth the wait. Imagine a whole record with that approach. Definitely understand the whole 'don't ruin the legacy' approach. Kind of iffy to hear what they finally put together. I'm almost more intrigued by a new Om record though, with Emil Amos and R.R. Lowe included you really can't go wrong.

Don't quite understand what could be held against Atriarch. 've yet to get too into the new record, but I guess one could say that it's a little on the dramatic side. Sill totally listenable.

Doing proper platter prepares for this weekend's show. Going to be Ufomammut supported by Usnea. And Church of Misery in there somewhere with Saint Vitus. 
Also, that new Radio Moscow be ripping.

 

*A moral question - how do you guys usually deal with records that have small pop-inducing factory errors to them? I just feel it's sometimes dumb to ask for a replacement in some cases because going for a coloured LP you kind of know there's a bigger chance of it turning out faulty. Then again, I'm already paying quite the hefty sum just to ship it over here and it's really a bummer to have to listen to the pop each time. I'm asking because the copy of the Usnea LP features one near the runout on side D and it just feels kind of silly to replace it because the rest of the record is flawless, but for the 7 seconds or so there.

I don't think it's unreasonable to ask for a replacement if there's a distinct and loud pop, a click could be debatable. Basically, if it sounds like it could be doing damage to your stylus, it's time to contact the label. I never hesitated back when records were $5.99, I don't see any reason to be okay with that with these crazy prices.

Yeah, that makes sense. It's just a bummer to keep asking for replacements when you know you're running the risk higher than with black anyway when buying coloured wax.

In Relapse related news - HoF's Blessed Black Wings was pressed on some new delicious-looking  wax

Every time i go to magnetic eye’s store the prices have gone up. Why is that elephant tree 34 dollars?

Yeah...I can't imagine picking up anything from them at this point, an I haven't heard anything out of STB in a while. Even if they put out something, who knows if I'd pick it up at this point.
