ericfitforbattle Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Could be their best record yet. I mean the last two EPs were amazing but damn this is just incredible. So glad they changed things up after Alphabets (their only mediocre output IMO). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonsofvipers Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Yeah, actually the more I listen I think this might just be their best yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jasonslfl Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 I was debating whether or not I should spend this much cash on a record, but after hearing the whole thing, very glad that I did. Don't miss out on this, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericfitforbattle Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Just got my shipping confirmation. I'm beyond stoked for this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonsofvipers Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 Does anyone know, are the guest vocals on Chicago Typewriter the guy from Fear Before? That's what I'm thinking, but not totally sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sonsofvipers Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 Word. Thanks. Also, I don't know why i've never had this thought before, but it struck me last night that Jerry kinda sounds like if Tom Waits was doing vocals in a post-hardcore band, and I fucking love it.

sworph Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Word. Thanks. Also, I don't know why i've never had this thought before, but it struck me last night that Jerry kinda sounds like if Tom Waits was doing vocals in a post-hardcore band, and I fucking love it. Jerry takes a huge amount of inspiration from Tom Waits. I also fucking love it. Got my package today, only the black variant inside Ordered both. Emailed Monotreme, hopefully they will sort it out for me soon. The packaging is amazing, the sleeves looks fantastic. The pins are pretty cool, a couple of nice stickers. Love that it came with a CD too. I don't think anyone is going to be disappointed with this release. The album is killer, have only listen to the DD as of yet. But I am really looking forward to spinning this tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AutumnEmpire Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I still don't like it as much as Alphabets, Bad Luck, or Darkness, but it has grown on me with repeated listens. Definitely like it more than Never Born, Never Dead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soundofsulfur Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Never Born, Never Dead has been my favorite Trophy Scars release prior to Holy Vacants. Holy Vacants could take the number one spot, but I need to give it some settling time. Hopefully my records arrive soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danionly Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Just got my copy in the mail today. Never got tracking so it was a big surprise. Can't wait to put it on when I get home. I've held off on listening to the album before I received my record, and with what you guys have been saying about it, I'm pretty stoked.

I didn't think they were being sent out til the first week of May or something for people in the US so if yours came suddenly with no tracking, I'm gonna be hovering outside my door for my mailman now lol.

danionly Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 February 7th. Just ordered the black, not both. Return address was from the band down in NJ, which is probably why it came so quickly to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericfitforbattle Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 I just got my copy and couldn't be more satisfied. Heavy 180g vinyl, slick looking, thick gatefold, anti-static inner sleeves, pins, stickers, colored poster with lyrics, cd, and the digital download in advance - this is one well done package and I'm happily giving Monotreme more of my money in the future. tmccoy1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elcowboyrojo Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 I got both of my variants today. I have held off on listening till I got my order. I am hoping Bad Luck will be pressed in the future Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Return address was from the band down in NJ, which is probably why it came so quickly to me. Ahhhh I see. I'm in NC and placed my order in early March so who knows. But at least people are already receiving it. How are you liking it? Oh and ericfitforbattle, those pictures are amazing, I'm even more excited to get those goodies too.

danionly Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 How are you liking it? I need to give it a few more listens, but the only thing I don't care for is the female singer. I forget which song it is, Gutted maybe?, she really sounds like Christina Aguilera and it just really turns me off. Also, I wish the poster was something...else. As a girl, it's not like I'm going to hang that up or anything haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
