I think you quoted the wrong person haha

But yeah, it sucks to hear that people are getting something different from what they expected. Definitely not a good look, not at all.

 

I took your lead and DM’d them - got straight back to me apologising for not replying to my numerous other messages. Basically said they don’t know about EU distro (I was asking about the UK variant that hasn’t been fulfilled) but fingers crossed they’re actually TRYIG to sort this whole mess

I’m guessing a) that variant will never be fulfilled because it will be too difficult or b) if it is, it won’t feature The Promise

 

Yeah, I bet that you are.

 

Yep. I think whoever got those replacement copies are a rare breed. Whoever pressed it truly fucked up and we all suffer.

 

Meanwhile, DTR continue to ignore me and I’ve been nothing but nice in my emails and my recent Instagram DM. I’m giving up. Don’t even care that much anymore.

 

Agreed. I’d recommend screenshotting the original listing in your complaint/refund email to explain why you’d want to return it.

 

Not to derail the thrice convo, and not sure if this was discussed but I missed it. War Paint got repressed, AJ has them signed in the store and they’re 30% off for cyber Monday.
Came out to be 25ish after shipping.

War Paint (Purple in Green) Vinyl (Signed)

 

Finally got those Kallaxes built a week later!

 

*posts “I want to go to there” 30 rock meme*

 

Constellation Records is having a holiday sale from now til the 15th.

 

Green Day Nimrod (25th Anniversary Edition) on DeepDiscount

Nimrod Boxset for ~$52 shipped after code CYBER. The Dookie set is around $90

 

One of my favorite releases of this year , sounds excellent on wax!

 

I have one Mage ordered. The lead times are quite lengthy. I've started to acquire a few Wax Vessel (label that deals with mid 00s type of heavy) signature handmade.

They are pretty though!

This is one of the Aegaeon "Age" Wax Vessel handmades.

 

Looks like Smartpunk is teasing Flyleaf!

 

First pressing of Quarashi's Jinx here: Quarashi - Jinx (Vinyl)

 

oh God, had Lacey not been spouting ex-gay rhetoric (which informed a good chunk of songs on that album), i'd probably pick it up because i have a lot of nostalgia for that record

 

Just got tracking info for Further Seems Forever - Hide Nothing from Brooklyn Vegan.

For 2024, I am still waiting on:

Jimmy Eat World - Futures: Phoenix Sessions
Jimmy Eat World - Surviving: Phoenix Sessions
The Bled - Pass The Flask
Slick Shoes - S/T
The Cure - Songs of a Lost World (I'm very excited to hear this one on vinyl)

blink-182 - OMT Part 2
Anxious - Bambi
Panic! At The Disco - A Fever You Can't Sweat Out
Gatsby's American Dream - Volcano
Dropkick Murphys - The Warriors Code
Less Than Jake - Pezcore

 

That's something I didn't even know I wanted until just now, fuck

wait what

 

yup, apparently a lot of their earlier songs were about her "struggle with homosexuality".

 

Wowwww I will have to give this a spin today to see if it holds up

 

as an ex-christian gay who still enjoys a lot of music from that scene, i kind of assume most of those bands have shitty views... but i can igore them if they just keep their mouths shut lol

 

I said somewhere that while posters that come with target exclusives and cds/vinyl in general are kinda nice, I never use them. I lied

 

she does seem to be quiet about it nowadays (unlike some other prominent ex-gay figures). but personally it's difficult for me to try to go back and listen when that rhetoric is still so pervasive and harmful in 2024 (having been on the receiving end myself in prior years). not sure if i'll pick it up.

 

I'm still trying to wrap my head around "ex-gay" is that like the equivalent of detransitioning? Going back in the closet and pretending that part of you doesn't exist? I guess that's a sign of a larger systemic issue, but if she really went through with that I kinda feel for her as an individual

And I'm not so sure now if I wanna pick it up either
