    there is no happy here Prestigious

    Grabbed one right away. My favorite album of all time. I bought an OG press of this album from some guy on Absolute Punk for $200 like ten years ago. I hope they do a tour or some shows for this... right now all that has been announced is the Breakfast thing NFG does.

    England.

    The book is a nice touch although I tend to just put these things away and forget about them. I picked up the white variant in (2015?) as it was my holy grail but I have to admit I was tempted by this. If only I hadn’t just paid to redo half my house and have to be a sensible adult (for a change).

    Snagged the T&N variant. This looks super cool.

    Don’t get the hype for this band. I love Chris and dashboard very much, but this band just doesn’t flow well.

    Even with three different singers, FSF is significantly more consistent in quality than Dashboard.

    To each his own. Pressing looks great though. They really did a good job with it.

    I grew up with dashboard and not FSF, so that may be part of it. I was introduced to dashboard with a mark, a mission, so that album really drew me in.

    IMHO, this is the greatest emo album of all time.

    it has the angular, jazz influence that early emo has but has enough rock influence that it kind of foreshadows where emo would go in the next 5 years after.
    It also obviously features a Mount Rushmore emo lead singer (and maybe the best ever) writing some of his most pure lyrical work due to his age and circumstance.

    take that for what it is, but I stand by this SCORCHING HOT TAKE

    Hope you can get into them. Such a good band and their later work is some of the genre’s most underrated albums.

    Would love to see them do this treatment with all the records put out on T&N. Then do a remaster on Penny Black with a deluxe package.
