Vinyl Me Please Essentials

This is exactly what I expected to happen so I suspect it'll be the same with me.

I mean at this point I have zero faith in GZ, I think they're the worst pressing plant on the planet and they clearly have zero quality control. If a single person had listened to even two or three of the discs coming off the line they would hear this stuff. But I don't think GZ or VMP listen to any of this stuff. I mean clearly they don't, how could they with this many massive issues across every run. Wu, Volta, PE, OutKast, and now Volta "repress" even though people are still getting sent copies of the original press for some absolutely indefensible reason...

You know how you won't buy certain labels or records from certain plants?

Just thinking about that...

Jesus fuck this is even infuriating to see as someone who didn't get MV. It's a lot of money to pay to get punched in the (insert gender specific genitalia) each month.

And then you take a look at reddit and it's all "I hope my (favourite album) becomes a ROTM!"...like why? Do you want your favourite album ruined for a premium?

I mean, to be fair, this was the FIRST of the run of disaster pressings so it's not like I JUST ordered this or anything.

Shut up.

NIGHTMather ordered those.

Yeah, but weren't those pressed elsewhere? I mean can't fault you for that.

Yah, let's just say while I quoted one of your posts, I wasn't actually responding to only one of your posts. If that makes sense.

Optimal. They've have a great run this summer of..

...screwing up about half of the album's they've pressed including nearly the entire BN Classics catalogue.

Please excuse me a moment while I drop this lit firework down my pants.

Weird...like I don't doubt you and maybe I've just had great luck but my copies of Dexter Gordon's "Go", Hank Mobley's "Soul Station" and Freddie Hubbard's "Ready for Freddie" all sound pretty awesome and I've had zero issues.

Everything I've gotten from GZ on the other hand, including non VMP purchases like the Daptone Super Soul Revue....woof. Daptone at least had only minimal fuckery.
