Has there been any updates on those vinyl releases I overpaid for and already regret?

[Forgotten Child]

It's sold out

[fluxequalsrad]

If Bill didn't want to pay anyone for the art why didn't he just take a picture of his necklace from that time, or *anything* that you know... ties an archival release to the era aesthetically? Holy shit this is not rocket science.

[Forgotten Child]

Band pictures are there, not on the cover tho

[New Art Rioter]

Strongly doubt any band pics will be anywhere on the release, it'll be that bashed out in 2 mins text design from the other two

Wonder if they remember to pay D'arcy a cut of the 170k

I like the pic of bill and Jim. Used to be normal dudes just jamming

[Oklahoma Sexual]

Make D'arcy a part of the release and I would be more interested. Feels lame that she's not included on any level

[Ram27]

very cool BC/JC pic

JC doesn't even look like him. he looks like a british guy called Gerry or something

He looks like a father the way he's holding tiny Billy there. Billy rocking the bald look from the jump

We have all those songs already, except Blue Light, but I'm glad to get them in what I assume will be much better quality.


(edit: and now I see my post count is a palindrome, so I'll be leaving for another couple years again.)

This, this, this.

You know the cover art is bad when we are getting a semi-exciting (semi) release and all of us can talk about is the shit cover.

Even just that photo, cropped, with the same new 'logo' that was on Viper and Kawasaki and BOOM you're done and its 10x better than the prior two releases' artwork.

Fixed it

[krackhead]

Should have made it $40. My bootleg MCIS vinyl arrived today and its orange.

someone has ripped the japan show to mp3 - https://www.reddit.com/r/SmashingPum...rip_available/

[Ram27]

I think it's only fair to give a download link to those who can prove that they bought the vinyl

oh my fucking god dude

it's SOLD OUT.

artificial scarcity is a scourge.

[eviltimeban]

If it's sold out, and it's not going to pressed again, then there's no reason why it shouldn't be shared. Unless there's a digital release coming, in which case, put it out already!

Got it easy peasy, all it takes is 25 on 32 do it.

Seriously someone please piss off pumpkins

Is there a legal way to “share” it?

Disclaimer: I didn’t rip it neither did I upload it.

Saw this on another forum from someone who picked up the Japan vinyl...


"I have finally received my live in Japan vinyl.
Horrible pressing with lots of non-fill, crackles and insanely loud clicks, just as I've heard from many others.
Also the worst vinyl packaging I've seen in decades. It's a miracle the vinyl arrived without being scratched to death.
Will never order from them again."

It really sucks but I kinda fell that’s what you get for messing around with impractical 70 year old technology. Vinyl shortages, small run, preorder months in advance, it was so obvious they were going to cut corners somewhere down the line… SMH

i'm trying to figure out how i would categorize this in my iTunes. with the other live bootlegs i have, like with AUD sources, or as its own separate 'official SP live albums' sort of thing

It's called Apple Music now, stop living in the pass.

i've started doing a blend of the viper room sbd with the aud recording.

personally i like the sbd raw as is, but lots of people have said they think it sounds too sterile and that a blend might be good.

so, which blended level sounds the best? https://file.io/IacJWPbmTKil
