WELCOOOMME BAAAAAAA-FUCK
Like returning to an abusive spouse after they promise they’ll treat you right.
One important question though
I've seen no mention of this noise on the Cloud Hill press. It's done by Optimal. This is pretty much GZs calling card.
It's funny, true "hipsters" or punks actually avoid colored vinyl for this very purpose. Black vinyl is the OG and not a trend. At least that's what I've seen/heard. It's actually "uncool" for a DJ to spin colored vinyl at a hip dive bar.
This is gunna be a gong show.
This is the correct take. It is like when your watching the news and the newscaster makes reference to records and then smugly says something like “remember those?” because he is worried that he will be perceived as being old or out of it unless they reference their antiquated nature but in doing that it actually makes them look more unhip because they are completely ignorant to the decade long vinyl revival.
Also, this completely destroys the secondary market value for this release because it’s gonna be flooded with people trying to flip their shitty copies after they receive their replacements.
Yeah... YEAH! I worked at Urban Outfitters from 1998-2000 back when it actually WAS cool! Hipsters didn't even EXIST then. We INVENTED hipsters! You bunch of hipster doofus wannabes!
I was in High School from 1998-2000 and shopped at American Eagle because the local mall (that was still 35 miles away) didn’t have an Abercrombie & Fitch.
Yeah mine was more I didn't realize the Clouds Hill versions were pressed at Optimal and these weren't so the math made more sense for me. Anyone know how that version sounds?Yep I should have known better too! My calculation that $52 was less than €52 it seems was a complete price over value judgement
Bad noise? I just checked the streaming version and that is exactly how I’d describe it. So it’s not a pressing issue. I rag on GZ as much as the next guy but this fault lies at the feet of the Mars Volta.
I'm assuming you're making a joke about the quality of the music? Because the first track on side one and two don't have noise and crackle for the first several minutes. In fact none of them are supposed to.
Oh yes, that was a shot at the music…..because of how awful it is. Perhaps not my best wording. It’s too hot out, ok? lol
