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

He's pimping this on twitter too...



That's unfortunate. I'm hoping this is just the typical poor intra-organization communication among VMP employees.

Generally speaking, the concept of same mastering/new pressing plant doesn't make much sense. Why would they ship existing metalwork (or cut new) plus jackets from one plant to another to press a 500 pcs run? You'd think folks who worked in the vinyl industry would know this, but at VMP it's hype above all.
 
This is false info from him - the standard version is also done at QRP (I have it and can confirm). Hoping this is just lack of knowledge from him and not an outright lie for hype.

Not trying to discourage anyone from buying the VMP version, I just want to make sure everyone here gets the right info.


Just curious, how can you tell the black version is pressed at QRP? I'm looking my copy over, but I don't see anything on the label or in the runout that indicates where it was pressed.
 
Side A etched - BG B0029607-01-A
Side B etched - BG B0029607-01-B

That's all I see in the runouts, nothing stamped on either side.

QRP rarely uses a plant code in the deadwax area, but there are other indicators such as the sticker on the outer sleeve and the Mofi-style inner sleeve.

I checked the discogs entry for the US black vinyl version, and it does not mention QRP. The EU version was pressed at MPO and does not use the Grumdman cut.

Does QRP ever use unmarked mofi style inner sleeves, or are they always branded as QRP?
 
Absolutely. Dead quiet, sounds amazing.

I read that it was done at QRP somewhere, but now I can’t figure out where :confused:. I remember reading it and being impressed, but also annoyed that the Sons of Kemet LP (also Impulse) was pressed at United.

Either way, I never questioned it for the reason you have listed here.
 
The Comet is Coming was an exclusive I was expecting at some point. That and the Denzel Curry album are the only 2 that have been essential since the forum ended imo. And the only 2 sclusies I’ve purchased in that time frame.

I like the Young Jesus avatar! I heard a couple of their songs on an episode of the OA recently and have been listening to that album. Great stuff
