OldKentuckyShark Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 where are the colored copies coming from? We can all order there, hahaha Probably from everywhere just like with Manipulator. This was claimed it came from DC mailorder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warhenrecords Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Man winter storm Jonas fudged up the mail here big time. Still haven't gotten my copy yet. Did get shipping notice though, so there is that. White copies, huh? Interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lethalenforcer Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Someone on White Swirl claimed the picture was photoshopped... jokingly? My wallet begs for it to be a fake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timsimmons Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 That was the first reaction to the red manipulator too. If there is a white version, it seems to be way more rare than the red Manipulator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lethalenforcer Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Did DC not acknowledge the existence of a red version? If so - sneaky effers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timsimmons Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Not before the release. When I posted the pic, as far as I know, that was the first mention of it. I got it maybe a day or 2 before the release day from DC mail order. By release day, there were mentions of lots of red ones. Lots of DC Mugger orders have hit now, thats the only mention so far.

jeromium Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Yeah but if you want the spine to read the title on a shelf, it's still a side-opening record. Is that right? So is the cover art sideways? I'm at work right now so I can't look at the sleeve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lethalenforcer Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Is that right? So is the cover art sideways? I'm at work right now so I can't look at the sleeve. Yeah. Spine and cover are printed opposite ways. Cover upright= spine is on bottom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeromium Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 I looked up that image on White Swirl, here it is for context (from user maxman142001). If Photoshopped, it's fairly convincing. Although based on the white on the cover, I'd say this is more cream. http://www.whiteswirl.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=254963#p254963 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lethalenforcer Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 The cover's reflection off the wax is solid. If this is a photoshop job the easiest route would have been to just photoshop the label onto a different white record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Young Thug Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 It would be easy to shop the label onto the center of the wax. But what would be the reward for that effort? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.SteveZissou Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 It would be easy to shop the label onto the center of the wax. But what would be the reward for that effort? The reward is this panda-fucking-monium that's going on right now over one photo. It's pretty great. CaptainHerbalLife and WAXXX 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not necessarily, you'd have to find or take a photo at the same angle for it to be convincing without distorting the perspective. bottom left of the sleeve looks crooked why It's the shrink wrap bumping out.

surfingelectrode Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Surprised that none of the reviews I've read have really picked up on the huge DEVO influence at all... the record sounds just like a lot of the stuff of their two Hardcore albums. Hell, Ty even gave them a thanks on the inner sleeve. I was pretty meh on the Fuzz albums, so definitely glad to have this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lethalenforcer Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 He mentioned Devo as influences in interviews over the past few years. I can certainly hear it in Mugger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeromium Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 I've never taken the time to listen to Devo. I just know their hits I guess, from back in the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
