My Third Man Michigan arrived and kinda disappointed that it's not the gatefold. Also didn't come sealed, just in a loose outer baggy. Questionable TMR practices.

Yeah bummer that it isn't gatefold, but I am never surprised or disappointed by much these days. Expect the worse, so you are never let down.

Not what I would describe as loose, but I am receiving more records in outer sleeves brand new and not shrink wrapped.

I think it’s brilliant. The less shrink in the world the better. The UK Warner store Dig! Has been sending all new releases in paper bags instead of shrink for a while now too.

I like paper bags better than poly sleeves as I'm picky about those and use particular ones (King Gizz does this). Not knowing what the ones I am getting are made of makes me switch them out. Paper bags go in the recycle!!!

Silkscreened though, eh?

Flightless Records does the same with the few King Gizz records I’ve purchased from the directly.

Yeah, I don’t think I have any jackets that are silk screened and gatefolds usually keeping with the DIY/bootleg aesthetic usually means that silkscreen art is always on a pocket style jacket. At least from my experience.

Honestly I'm all for that. I don't need them shrink wrapped when I'm ordering direct.

Yeah I’m good with that. This one was too big and came all crunched in the box and unfortunately snagged a corner and bent it up.

The last one I bought from my local and was in a paper bag too.

Sounds like you hate it.

My address is still the same



But seriously... that's fucked up. Hopefully you reached out to them

Are they're any indie store variants of the new Slowdive?

The site edits the URL because of the band name, lol

I just wish it was easier to remove the hype sticker from the shitty outers they use. Which probably is more wasteful than shrink wrap
