LION25

I had them all up until Touch of Schmilsson. That broke the spell because it showed how little thought VMP was still giving to curation. At the very least, if you couldn't get any of the titles you wanted that would actually fit Classics or were forced into it because they wouldn't let it be a...

If you thought comic book prices had gone up too much the last decade, it's about to get so much worse. https://bleedingcool.com/comics/comic-books-set-to-rocket-in-price-next-week-over-tariffs/ Yes, he relaxed the tariffs on Mexico today after they sent 10k troops to the border, but Canada...

Just in case anyone hadn't seen the notice yet, Rough Trade is about to switch over to Shopify and will be asking for payment immediately instead of charging right before the preorder ships. Also, any current preorders are going to be charged to your cc on file after the changeover on 06 Feb.

Granted this was 2017-18, so their process has likely changed, when my friend went to Sony about wanting to do a vinyl press of something from their archives/vault (band in question had signed with Capricorn in the mid-90s), they initially just wanted the band or label to pay a fee but then Sony...

They sent out an email on Tuesday that Blue Note is supposedly shipping but I haven't receive a notice yet. I'm sure there were delays for all their customers because nobody could foresee snow in January, or New Year's Day, or MLK Jr day

You're a year off for Crate, can't remember when Swaps started up (maybe 2017-18?, after the Classics & RHH tracks). I was one of the first people on Crate, due to not being interested in a monthly sub for records I didn't want (Torres, Hot Chip). I'd signed up for Menomena, and then reached out...

I was going to post about this in the Seattle thread, but maybe others are interested in the Hammerbox 7" that comes with The Gits :) My friend's label, Latent Print, is the 3rd piece of this.

For entirely different reasons, but I recall being blown away when I was introduced to Mission of Burma's stuff, a few years after they'd broken up; only hearing about the notorious live shows. It was amazing to actually be able to see them live when they were able to come up with protection for...

They were definitely edgelords, mostly shit-talking their fans, but the transphobic stuff was from a friend of the band who had access to their Twitter acct. The guitarist gave a lengthy, open interview earlier this year, talking about all of it. He comes across about as mature as someone could...

Amazon's helpful curation

That looks more like an someone who would want the GD box more than BN Maybe someone in the VMP parking lot will give him a miracle

As my membership ended, I used the last of my credits to bring the BN box down to $100. I'm holding out for it for now and will speak up if they can't get it right & I have Frankenparts :)

Beautiful! Next, please pretend you're also salivating over The Long Winters and Superchunk ;)

I was having dinner at Wedgwood Broiler when the power went out. Luckily, my brother and I had cash. The power was out from 35th all the way to Roosevelt/I5. The lights flickered a few times at my house, and the cable went out for 5-10 seconds, but otherwise fine. I haven't walked around the...

From the email - "All titles will be newly mastered by Ryan K. Smith at Sterling Sound from the original analog master tapes, pressed on 180g vinyl at RTI and packaged in deluxe tip-on jackets." On the site - Meticulously mastered from analog sources

I was doing a quick c/p of a bunch of the info but they're aiming for all-analog remasters by RKS from the original tapes for every release, so the idea is that they will sound better. Execution of the idea? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ They're definitely aiming for the crowd that wants more than the $12 OJC...

The "sign-up" page isn't actually to sub, just to make sure you're on their mailing list for when they do launch. • Pressed on 180-gram vinyl at Record Technology, Inc. (RTI) • Vinyl records packaged in numbered, tip-on jackets, each limited to just 2,500 copies • Early access to upcoming...

Even the digital hasn't been formally released on Bandcamp; still just the first 3 songs

Yeah, I'm waiting on Rendezvous, as well
