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

If anybody wants to use their $40 credit to get this and forward it on to me, I can send you an opened copy of the VMP bandana... caveat is that I’ll send the bandana once you have the grimes in hand since I really don’t trust that they even have these in stock

Diving in now first time listen. I'll update through tracks

Wide Eyes - pretty awesome drums. vocals & guitar are stale imo. pretty generic rock song that drags on.
Airplanes - adorable opening banter and piano. vocals have more character here. classic late 2000's indie rock vibe, which I like.
Sun Hands - pretty nice change of pace here, kind of a sprawling chant with almost-tribal drums keeping the focus. hm, guitar solo was a bit weak to finish.
World News - spotify is muddying the harmonies here, but I still think it's a forgettable track.
Shape Shifter - Hold up, is this christian rock? Starts w/ "My king I'm humbled before you". Uh... the music is pretty awesome here though. Lots of nice layering.
Camera Talk - i'm a sucker for the strings. awesome track
Cards & Quarters - fun little guitar sound but little variation. got bored
Warning Sign - I dig the guitar harmony, but man this band loves it's vocal sighs. Oooo tasty beatswitch. Dig this one.
Who Knows Who Cares - this is basically my favorite music. strings, roaming guitar, thrashing drums, wandering lyrics.
Cubism Dream - a bit of range in the vocals, but pretty boring track
Stranger Things - track name has a lot to live up to! XD let's see! Damn that was pretty epic. Could've seen the album ending on this culmination.
Sticky Thread - Kind of hilarious track name. Delicious guitar rift. Holy crap I love that they're closing out with these instrumentals. This track is fucking awesome!

Man, really a lot to love here. The drums are killer, nice variability between tracks. There's some filler for sure and the vocal sighs all over the place aren't my favorite, but I did really enjoy it. Certainly will go back for more.

Nice write up! I absolutely love this album, and if you get the chance they are fantastic live. They go bonkers playing Sun Hands.

I have the pink version but would probably bite for the 2 extra tracks, gatefold, and other extras.
 
its the 10th aniversary classic stuff that is tempting me.. i have the money but was saving it for a schiit magni and a DAC

spring has started though so i have more job opportunities
 
I picked up the pink press from the "10 Bands One Cause" series of Gorilla Manor a couple years ago, so I'm good on this one. But for those of you that are interested and haven't heard this album, check it out. It's some real nice melodic indie guitar pop.
