The Dear Hunter "Acts I, II, & III" Represses


Recommended Posts

Can't wait.  Been wanting this for so long.  I remember being able to easily find Act III for the longest time and it just went out of print out of nowhere.  I found it at 3 different record stores and it just went away like that.

That's how this habit... I mean hobby goes. It seems like presses just up and vanish over night when you figured you were ok to just wait a few more weeks to pick something up.

 

Damn, I like to have limited variants. Probably just going to be plain black then. Still end up getting them, but still :(

Sad face for no limited variant? :huh:

It seems like a lot of albums are being pressed in high numbers. I miss the days of variants being limited to 100 or 300 with different colors for the remaining 1000. It's shitty when you miss it and have to buy it for more money but it adds to the thrill of buying rare records.

Really? I thought they just pressed a fuckton.

 

semantics. unlimited pressings aren't literally "unlimited," of course. you press a fuckton, and if you start to run out, you press a fuckton more.

i mean, large quantity presses is the way it used to be. people used to buy vinyl for the music, not for the collectability. larger presses usually equates to lower costs, too, if the labels aren't dickheads about it

I just want unlimited pressings of everything with a small quantity of limited variants. Make things available for everyone and keep it interesting for the people who collect rare things.

i love all the conversation happening in here.

 

 

would be thrilled to get my hands on a copy of act 1 that doesn't skip.

 

also really like the idea of casey moving forward under his own name. 

 

as far as fuckton presses- i love the hobby, but i wish it didn't have to be a hobby. i just want to buy all of my favorite albums. why do they make it a hassle for me to give them my money?
