Vinyl Thread [ARCHIVED] • Page 435

I checked my list of preorders to see what my longest wait time has been. Needtobreathe live album - Jan 2021, and it still hasn't shipped. I never thought I'd have an order be pushing close to 2 years

 

I’m still waiting on my Mightier Than Sword Take Off Your Pants and Jacket from 2011 haha

 

Got that BNO Make Yourself Sick splatter. Much smoother checkout oat Take This To Heart.

 

They say admitting is the first step

 

Yup snagged BNO. Add it to the pile

 

Also ordered a copy. I went with the White in Sky Blue variant. Probably could've grabbed any of the variants when I got on before, but liked the color-in-color the most. Would've been content with any of the three though. All very good looking variants!

 

Fortunately, two of those are winging their way toward me as we speak.

 

I'm fairly certain I'm never going to get my Balance and Composure record from No Sleep. They already have a reputation for extremely long delays, and now they're part of the Awesome Merch fiasco.

 

i think you mean NOT Awesome Merch

 

Also grabbed the BNO record. Figured it would have much less demand compared to ETID and NFG.

 

They updated their story on the gram the other day saying they are getting their inventory back. There is still hope.

 

there must be another vinyl sale at amazon:
i picked up jimmy eat world's bleed american for 21$.
blink 182's greatest hits is at 20% off too.

not sure if this is newsworthy, but while shopping for vinyl on amazon, i stumbled on some repress preorders:
still searching: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BBYHFXBX/?tag=absolutepunk-20
follow your bliss (greatest hits) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BBZ86TJG/?tag=absolutepunk-20
the fire: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BBZB33M6/?tag=absolutepunk-20

 

Finally, a nice, crisp fall day. Windows are open, Transatlanticism playing and the possibility of a few day time beers.

 

Couple of 2022 hardcore releases. I can't help but order splatters despite frequent disappointment but the Berthold City one turned out pretty good.

 

Mail day

 

Todays mail.

 

Yesterday's mail day. I use a PO box to Western NY to try to cut some of the shipping costs to Canada. Once the vinyl arrives here it's literally a 10 minute drive to their facility. I try to wait until there's multiple packages before requesting them over the border. Because sometimes shipping is equal or more to the actual cost of the record.

Still waiting on my TWL "Ever Blossom". I guess they just shipped my "Petaluma" since its been 13 months and counting....

 

I feel like mock ups VS actual during "the Pandemic Years" have been a lot of disappointing.

Ex. Newbury exclusive of Alexisonfire "Otherness" or my Converge/Chelsea Wolfe "Bloodmoon I" (Chelsea Wolfe variant).

But that one you got there looks pretty sweet!

 

Title Fight season

 

The best album maybe ever

 

Any VMP members snag the Prince live boxset they have in the store for members only? Curious how it sounds

 

It really is a perfect album

 

Used finds yesterday at Daybreak Records in Seattle. Nice little shop.

 

You should play their new LP as well
