    I first saw them opening for Matthew Sweet, supporting their debut album; really liked it Though I was excited when Pain came out, bought it that first week, it was disappointing in comparison - there's still some of the power pop, but way too much smoothed-out alternative rock and standard FM...

    Vinyl Me Please (store, exclusives, swaps, etc)

    ...then WTF was the board voting on in 2021? "Should we spend a few hundred thousand dollars on something for someone else's 100% profit? We'll get nothing out of it directly but we could contract with this new entity, spending additional $ to get our records pressed there. All in favor?" I know...

    I don't have Pacer so can't get the details, but it looks like the case is still moving along; next hearing on 12Jun https://www.pacermonitor.com/public/case/46573839/Berenson_v_Offbeat_Ventures,_LLC_et_al It would appear that the defendants managed to waste a year trying to get a change in...

    If they have even a half-competent legal team, every employee has already received an email telling them to not comment on any aspect of the lawsuit, including the people involved Funny enough, I remember back when we were telling Matt, repeatedly, that if he refused to regularly update the...

    Well, it wasn't the next up, but soon enough "...Before the next monthly email we will be announcing new albums from both Kishi Bashi and Oneida."

    Vinyl Me Please (store, exclusives, swaps, etc)

    I'm sure to some extent it depends on the plant and the pressing amount, but wait times have come way down in the last 6 months to a year. You're no longer told that you have to place your order up to a year out just to get in the queue. What interests me is that VMP continues to be one of the...

    Bandbox: an uncompensated review of an interesting new club

    Full disrespect to that guy - I skipped forward through his reading the legal documents (seriously?!), and was stunned midway through the video where he not only says "I am not a lawyer" but then proceeds to admit that everything he's been saying and will continue to say about the process is...

    Bandbox: an uncompensated review of an interesting new club

    Ok, I haven't dug into the bankruptcy paperwork, just saw someone mention them as one of plants that had done work for Bandbox. Like I said, no idea if their closure is related or completely other circumstances.

    Bandbox: an uncompensated review of an interesting new club

    While I'm not cynical enough to believe it was intentional at all, likely someone in over their heads running a business and then scrambling, It was the perfect shell game - they kept contracting with different labels and bands, and then also kept using a bunch of different pressing plants*, so...

    To confirm, it's new, and neither the band nor the label mentioned this exclusive in the pre-order announcements. It took me a second to confirm this wasn't the indie exclusive (crystal clear) because, yes, the band def has a preferred color theme!

    You say we're welcoming and then toss this opinion out into the world?! I'm with you on Lovecraft as he was a genuinely awful human being, but WTF is your problem w/ Poe? I have not read everything he ever wrote, but at least the classics? Dreck it is not.

    Thx! I got Decemberists & Sierra Ferrell yesterday through the artist codes, now BTS/YLT and Waxahatchee Expensive, but will make me happier than the same amount for that DIDO lineup

    To each their own, but I guess it depends on how you feel about Pierre Chuvin as a 'proper' TMG album, and I also think Bleed Out is amazing. From the "What If?!" file, there's wondering how Dragons would have turned out if it had been done as a proper concept album. Owen Pallett ruined it by...
