captainaldous Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 God dammit. Is anyone going to actually buy this? I just want to listen to this on vinyl without wanting to throw it out the window. agua 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AWasteOfATime Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 The second press of the latest Balance and Composure record fixed all the sound issues while remaining on 1 LP, hopefully this could be the same. Also I'm Hot Topic (and i think hopeless as well) has just upped ALL of their vinyl prices to over $20. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwhitmuzik Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Hopeless is 18 a piece. That's the label setting their own price. It's different than Hot Topic marking up 15 dollar LPs to 20.50 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chamb117 Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 someone just report back with sound quality info ASAP, yo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Out Of Time Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 I feel like if they improved the sound quality from the first press, the band or someone would have at least said something to drive up the interest. B&C / No Sleep did so for the 2nd press of TTWTWM. Who knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AWasteOfATime Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 on the real I told Matt Brasch and Natalie who works at hopeless in person how angry I was about the vinyl pressing so believe me they know. it's just if they did anything about it. it would probably require them to atleast make a new test press, right?

nothnks Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 This thread inspired me to try to listen to my copy that I have and couldn't do it. The first 3 or 4 tracks on each side sound crystal clear on my copy, which bums me out because Cul-de-sac is my jam, and sounds like crap. so much for my /600 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dethrock Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 This slightly reminds me of the split color copies of Suburbia that almost 100% of them were warped and No Sleep wouldn't admit they were fucked up from the plant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwhitmuzik Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 classic no sleep being a shit label hopeless is a lot bigger but for a small mostly DIY label to have such shit customer service is pretty embarrassing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captainaldous Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 classic no sleep being a shit label hopeless is a lot bigger but for a small mostly DIY label to have such shit customer service is pretty embarrassing Has anyone tried to contact them in regards to this new pressing? If not, I'll write them tomorrow after work, as should a handful of others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chamb117 Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 1,200 purple (Hot Topic) 1,000 red (in addition to the previous 3,000) no mention of black in the email, so i'm curious to know if it's even real -- and if it is, i'd venture to say it's more of an "unlimited" black pressing, but who knows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattpuch21 Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 1,200 purple (Hot Topic) It's up now and the site is saying it's /1,500 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chamb117 Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 i know what the site says, but i also know what hopeless said. believe what you want. doesn't matter to me, probably not buying a copy anyway TheWindBlower 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish I wasn't anal about keeping my subs complete so I could sell that copy to someone who wants it just to have it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordan999 Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 I don't have the first press but this has noticeable surface noise and is quiet volume wise, doesn't sound terrible but is certainly not ideal.. The copy I got from Interpunk is transparent orange. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been out of stock the last few months I've checked and then back in stock after the repress was announced so I figured it was this new one. Carry on then....

Carry on then.... as mentioned above, they repressed the transparent reddish-orange /3,000 from the first press, so what jordan999 got from interpunk is likely the "second press." bummer that there's no improvement. waiting to hear about how the purple sounds.
