corey. Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 My blue variant arrived warped to hell. Fuck. It was only in transit for 4 days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy. Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Got my violet & white in today. For the most part they kind of blended together. The inside near the label is just solid violet which is cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zacooper Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 Got my blue in the other day from BWM. Record is super dark blue with black swirls, basically can't tell it's blue unless held up to light. First two songs sounded really good. Bummed there is no insert though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

corey. Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 So these guys were incredible tonight. Really haven't been into me but they far exceeded expectations for me. Yeah their album rules. I ended up ordering both of the UK variants tonight haha. Side note, I'm also working on a project with these dudes and am fucking stoked.

BrainGilliams Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 Looks like there is only 3 copies of the blue/white swirl left through Storm Chasers. To my knowledge, that's the remainder from the 1st press. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zacooper Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 Can someone scan in the UK lyric sheet and PM to me? I'd definitely like to have a copy of lyrics to look at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McCandless Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 Can someone scan in the UK lyric sheet and PM to me? I'd definitely like to have a copy of lyrics to look at. PM'd. Also it's here http://imgur.com/HHwyOsU if anyone else needs it. Worth noting it's meant to be black and white and it's not just a dodgy scanner.

andy. Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 These dudes were great to meet and hang out with. The show was fantastic and was probably the best I've been too in awhile. Check this rad thing out that I'm doing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rip Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 Odds of a second pressing happening soon? I slept on this and I'd rather not be forced to pay $38 for the t-shirt bundle from HelloMerch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corey. Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Odds of a second pressing happening soon? I slept on this and I'd rather not be forced to pay $38 for the t-shirt bundle from HelloMerch. This isn't the official sorority noise thread but anyway snagging that bundle might be your best bet if you want to spin it on vinyl anytime soon. Plus you have the option of either US variants. Dog knights did a pressing too, but that was pricey with overseas shipping. Packaged deal for $46ppd of 2 variants. Anyway, all I was going to say was I bet they definitely have plans for a second press, but who knows how long until that actually happens as it's a side project for the band members and the labels putting it out aren't exactly cranking out records very quickly as they're smaller still.

corey. Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 After getting all 4 of these variants...Definitely in favor of the UK variants, for a few reasons. It's definitely higher quality vinyl - it sounds better and is noticeably heavier. It also came with an insert (not a huge deal, but hey). UK version is 45rpm, US is 33. Also, the graphic designer/nerd in me noticed the US version had pretty low quality printing for the record jackets, with lines from the printer and what not. Regardless, both releases are still cool. Picture below of the US and UK version, there's a difference in color due to going through different printers. Less streaks/lines in the Dog Knights release.

McCandless Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 I'm very happy with my UK variant, even if I always forget to switch to 45 when I first put it on! corey. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish we had Dog Knights in the US, they're one of those labels I'd probably buy everything from if it wasn't so damn expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super fast shipping, only took a week coming from the UK. I agree, I'd totally get more of their stuff if the overseas shipping wasn't so expensive. They had a deal if you bought both variants, only $10 more for the second one so I went ahead and grabbed that while I was at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish we had Dog Knights in the US, they're one of those labels I'd probably buy everything from if it wasn't so damn expensive. I have about five or six Dog Knights albums in my collection. (The latest being that new Shirokuma album). And I've gotten them cheaper through the trades Shawn from Middle-Man and Nevin from IFB do regularly. I'm pretty sure Nevin still has a couple of the UK variants from this if anyone's interested as well as all the other recent Dog Knights vinyl.

Shoot him an email @ [email protected]. Look at the picture I have on my tradelist. All copies he has are on that color. It's honestly one of my favorite albums of the year so far.
