Definitive Audiophile pressings

[Mather]

Ah my bad, I wasn’t aware that were that many different versions floating around.

Yeah two of them are single disc versions, different mastering and plants, definitely want the 45 as it sounds incredible, minus the minor pressing flaws...

 

[Mather]

you must be new here. @Mather owns a microscope to inspect his stylus and just purchased 3 copies of the same album in an attempt to find a copy without audible no-fills on side D.

Two copies actually, and it was more than just Side D, and I PIF'd the second one.

I’m always sayin’ for a closeted serial killer that Mather is a pretty good dude.

And he usually tosses in a few extras

Just for the record. This is what the first copy I got, that I returned looked like, before I bought the second copy..

And yes, you could hear every one of those.

That's a lot of fucking sailboats!

Yeah I'm not even sure what was going on, on that one side. Initially I thought it was some errant vinyl scratching the disc because it was pretty scuffed over all but half of them are like little spots that kinda look like no fill but aren't, and the other half are gouges. First time I've seen that. Odd.

 

[Nee Lewman]

I care because I find it odd. Odd is interesting, now if you'll excuse me I'm just gunna head over here and fuck up your lawn.

I don’t know how it could possibly be any more fucked up than it is, but go for it?

Just wait until the Mather-stock festival gets going on your lawn!

Alright I'm going to look at the dead wax once and for all and see wth is up with these. Curiosity has got the better of me despite how much I hate trying to find just the right angle of the light in my livingroom to read the damn thing...

Time to break out your microscope!

 

[Mather]

Time to break out your microscope!

Omg like. It's a $15 usb phone camera that barely works. It probably sends all my personal information directly to the Chinese government.

Time to break out your microscope!

I always get mildly annoyed when people ask me about the dead wax. I want to say “no, it’s too much effort and I don’t care, piss off”, instead i put on the big light and try to squint at a nonsense sequence of numbers and letters from a strange angle…

Which they don’t at all use to direct exiled political dissidents towards your “basement”…

How do you order from them? Or have to go in person? My buddy is trying to find them

I was going though the airport today. I’m pretty confident that you could call them — caveat — I didn’t think to get the number. I previously ordered both of mine directly from Tuff Gong. Has your friend tried that?
