Derek™ Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Interested to hear Derek's take on Watered's debut. I'd kickstart the shit out of it. That's for sure. I'm right there with you on anticipating a PO for Audrey Fall. I really wish someone would look into pressing the Sisters Of... debut, but if it happens I suspect it won't be for a long, long while. Also cringing at the shipping rates for the upcoming Talons PO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alright!! re: Watered...yes, definitely whatever it takes, even after the Sunlight Ascending KS, I would do this... On the first Talons I splurged on the /100 Euro Black (cost me a Sheath tour press of something, can't remember) Agreed on the Talons shipping: I hate loving so many UK bands that ship out of there, the Pound 'pounds!!' The GIAA killed me - in retrospect I would have not done Origins 2nd press, but used those funds for Pet Slimmers instead. edited: suspect some others got an email saying the PO is delayed so Chris emailed the download code for the new album. Yes, I downloaded it. Yes, I did listen. Yes, I will give it 10 listens. No, on first pass it doesn't blow your socks off like the first, but there are tracks calling me back, so that's a good sign.

omik11303 Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 Just now listening to the first Watered album. Where have I been - it's fantastic stuff. Mark me down as a supporter for any potential upcoming vinyl pressings. It needs to happen. Also the wait for the Audrey Fall PO is exhausting. Just take my money already!

mrewest Posted May 28, 2014 Author Share Posted May 28, 2014 Check out Terraformer (I don't believe I've seen them posted yet) terraformer.bandcamp.com Another post-metal band. Blacker than Watered. Shit's loud & hits hard. Reminds me of when I listened to Kokomo's newest, but much less monotony. Their first album (The Sea Shaper) even has some mathy elements. "Creatures" is their newest. Vinyl is available for both albums but comes with a hefty Euro shipping fee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrewest Posted May 29, 2014 Author Share Posted May 29, 2014 I think 10 or more of you guys should tell me you like Terraformer so I can hook up a group buy of "Creatures" haha. Honestly that's the only way to make that reasonable. 10 orders would put it at about $27 each, including the cost for me to ship to everyone. Frickin Euros are killers! I wish Aentitainment could handle all overseas shipping! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek™ Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 I've had Terraformer in my iTunes for ages, but haven't revisited it in a while. I'll try to play it later today and get back to you on a potential group-buy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrewest Posted May 29, 2014 Author Share Posted May 29, 2014 It really does get better with each listen. It's temporarily pushed Watered out of the way (not replaced, just bumped aside) for the time being. We need some good American post-metal to emerge! I can't afford my European post-metal kick right now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bands fitting that bill seem to be far and few between. But to be fair, that new Watered PO was ridiculously affordable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrewest Posted May 29, 2014 Author Share Posted May 29, 2014 Oh no doubt. Must be a German thing or wherever it's coming from. Terraformer, just to order 1 copy, is almost $40 on the website I found it on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish Aentitainment could handle all overseas shipping! Just realized I don't have Creatures, and therefore haven't heard it. The S/T is the only thing in my iTunes, and I remember digging it a fair deal, a while back. Grabbing Creatures right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stillused Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 I'm digging the new one from Terraformer. I could potentially be down for a copy if a bunch of people went in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek™ Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 I'm acually not positive quite yet, either. It seemed pretty damn solid on the first play, but I wasn't giving it my undivided attention. I was only asking because the shop I was eying [stargazer] didn't seem to offer a price-break on the shipping, whether you were ordering 1 copy or 10.

mrewest Posted May 30, 2014 Author Share Posted May 30, 2014 Yeah I was looking at Stargazer. When I quoted 10 copies with shipping it equated to 182 Euros which would be $248, so about $25 each NOT including me shipping out to you guys. But I get dirt cheap shipping at work so I could even cover it myself probably. So really I'd only ask $27 per person. One single order of the record came out to about $38 something shipped. So a pretty good savings if we somehow get 10 people. After typing all that up, I figured it out for 5 orders & it would only be like $30 per person, so we probably don't need to go to 10. That is, if people like this album enough to still drop $30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see where the confusion lies. I thought you were asking me if I were ordering it from king of the gutters, but instead you were asking king of the gutters where he was ordering it from. That gif worked out perfectly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
