Youinreverse Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Got my starburst in the mail today. It's beautiful. I'm torn though. I don't know where it belongs in my record collection. Do I file it under Whirr or Nothing?... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrewest Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 All four songs on this are good, but those Nothing tracks are just straight up beasts. Very grungey. drds89 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Youinreverse Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 already have 4 Whirr records so I put it next to the Nothing collection ha I've got three from Whirr and three from Nothing, so I'm torn. Normally I just file it with the artist I bought it for/who I have more of a collection of, but this one is a pretty even split in those aspects. haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goodmemory Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 i doubt it i think its baby blue /1000 (which looks blue marbled, possibly with yellow) or cream green/yellow /1000 (which looks almost completely yellow with a hint of marbling) we sent a few hundred baby blue recs to retail, the rest were all green/baby blue/yellow starburst. from that description, could be either but i'd assume it's the baby blue.

3arl Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 I got word that a local record store has "marbled light blue/yellow" in stock. I'm assuming this is the starburst? I believe I'll be going to grab one asap. i doubt it i think its baby blue /1000 (which looks blue marbled, possibly with yellow) or cream green/yellow /1000 (which looks almost completely yellow with a hint of marbling) the copy i picked up at my local store was the starburst for whatever thats worth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corey. Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Bought this on a whim at a local record store yesterday and scored the starburst. Overall a super solid release, both songs and the art/packaging. Still need to watch this dvd though ha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

azvd Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Buy two different colors and place each one into a different band section. Still, you'll have to choose which band wil get each color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smeepo Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 This is cool. I have never listened to either band before and I have been meaning to check this out for a few days now.

Derek™ Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 This is cool. I have never listened to either band before and I have been meaning to check this out for a few days now. Thanks VC community for exposing me to good music! The Whirr songs are honestly kind of "eh" to me. (And that's not even considering how hard they're out-shined by the Nothing tracks.) I'd definitely check out Distressor or Sway if you'd like to get a better idea of Whirr... who are well worth your time. smeepo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrewest Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Man, these Nothing songs are so so so good. I'm now rooting for a whole album with that sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
decade03 Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Incase you hadn't seen what it looked like in all its flesh and glory. Its always a pleasant surprise when you don't expect it.

batnoises Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Just came home for thanksgiving tonight and I was pleasantly surprised to have this and my Crying preorder waiting for me. I absolutely love how the blue turned out; I was skeptical it would be a bland opaque record and was bummed I didn't get the starburst. happy with my choice now. I still want the black 180g though, I've been finding black records very appealing lately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
