if i remember correctly the quality of this live recording was not excellent, still they play a killer version of Boris. original artwork was soooooooo punk

I listened to it today and it’s definitely raw, but it’s also heavy as fuck. You’re right, Boris sounds amazing on this. I’m wondering why they chose to put this on a 10” and the buzzo solo EP on a 12”? Seems like it would be the other way around.
-
My memories of Alive At... are mostly of "Bar-X" and a weird bit of banter, I think. It's been so long since I listened to it. Thought maybe "Charmicarmicat" was on there but that's probably Third Man I'm confusing for this one's "Boris." I could just go listen to it and look up the track listing instead of spewing misremembering here. I'm sure this reissue will drive me to it eventually.

We should have Melvins Rock. Like the rock you buy at British seaside resorts. Three perfect colours/flavours right there. £50 a pop - should I eat it or not? =P~

So I was lucky enough to score one of the Alive at the Fucker Club 10” bundles.
I plan on holding on to them but I also really want to complete my sugar daddy 12” and clown 7” collections.
I currently only have the Roxy Music and Pop O Pies 7” for the clowns and Melvins 1983 and king Buzzo 12”s for the sugar daddies. So I’m missing most of both collections.
Any offers, hit me up!
-
Meh...another one missed. I own the CD, so this would have been a nice addition.
That said, at this point, I am getting so tired of this band playing the limited editions game. Always sold out in an hour on the Amprep site and you get to watch them being flipped within days here or on Discogs.
Do they not realise that whilst this is a great money maker for them, it's a bit of a disservice to fans who have supported them for years?

You should call and complain to their manager.
They are doing a Factory Edition of this, so you will still be able to own it on vinyl. That is what I am waiting for myself.

Got one along with the Six Pack CD. Now, I have no idea what will happen with this particular order if I consider what happened to the Seawhores LP (Rob sent me a new copy but I haven't seen any movement in the USPS tracking system since April 19) but I ordered them anyway.

Yep, exactly. Remain calm. :) I was able to grab a factory edition Honky vinyl from Shoxop no problem. Probably will get this one too if it's under $30.
-
Yeah, I'm definitely calm. Mostly a bit deflated.
I am lucky (?) enough to have picked up a lot of rare stuff on vinyl when it came out - but I don't think Ive managed with Shoxop. I'm not going to begrudge them a living and I have some of the Mackie artwork records, so thats cool. I get why they are doing it...
I guess this one is a weird example, as it is out there on CD, but some of the stuff which has never seen the light of day in anything other than super limited form (Clown B-sides are a good example. I have a few but theres some killer ones I would love to play) so all it does is push me to find dodgy MP3s which kinda sucks.
-
meh. =;
the world is just a Melvins hyper-limited vinyl release wheel and we're just the hamsters that run on it! :P

Anybody forget?
Yes, and I was even looking at the page an hour before it went up. This one isn’t a huge priority for me but I would like to have it. The one next week is the variant that I like best so maybe I’ll try a little harder. If it doesn’t work out I’ll definitely pick up a factory version
-
I think I already overpaid for the original CD so I really don't have much interest in this on vinyl. If there are still cheapy CDs when I make my next Amrep order I might get that then.
-
sticker shock! :shock: :lol:
-
How much are the limited edition pressings? I always forget to even check on Sundays when these things go up.

$75

I'm curious if the track times will be fixed if anything.
-
Not sure how but I snagged an innards edition
:lol: (This time I actually used my phone and it worked flawlessly)
feel p lucky here, these have been insta-sellouts the last 2 Sundays
-
Cool! :lol:
-
FYI: Europeans - LPs finally arrived in the UK after two months in a warehouse in Chicago. I assume you'll be getting yours soon, too.
-
Just a thought, do you guys think there could be like an exclusive members only Melvins Vinyl Club? Like whereby if you are a full fledged member you are offered a premium buyers gold card issued to give license to secure a limited pressing in advance instead of having to sweat it out at the last minute scramble when the stink hits the fan?
...I mean, that's the general idea, you can pay a little extra for a reserved parking spot when the sales go up just to beat the punch. Of course you have to be a true die-hard fan to be in the club naturally.
-
Sounds a lot like what Joyful Noise does, right?
I'm assuming it would be an Amrep thing for the Melvins.
This would still benefit the flippers unless there was some control over ongoing access for resellers. I don't think Buzz or Haze really has too much incentive to take this on as long as the damn things keep buying at these prices.
For myself, I've never resold a piece of Melvins merch. But a few of the collectors I've bought from probably never meant to either, until the time comes when you need that liquidity. I would t want to be prevented from reselling if I chose to.
-
would t .
*wouldn't

just couldn't pull the trigger on that shirt, what with my kid being literate and all. :lol: #-o

Wonder if there are enough in stock that I could keep one in my cart until next weekend when the Mudvins vinyl goes up

I imagine when Haze advertises this on Facebook, they'll disappear like shit off a shovel.

Got myself a copy! :D

:lol: Some of it. I ordered some rare records that I normally wouldn't have. I'm still sitting on a decent amount and waiting for the rest of these factory editions to drop.

Factory 'bone edition' sold out!
https://www.shoxop.com/collections/brand-spanking-new/products/melvins-alive-at-the-fucker-club-10-reissue-factory-sleeve-bone-edition
-
I nabbed one yesterday along with the Mudhoney cheap-o CD!! With only 300 in existence, this record will be the rarest in my collection!
-
Could have ordered this weekend, but opted out. $30 for a 10" EP where the sound quality is basically a grade B soundboard? No thanks. I didn't buy the Ipecac P.A.T. on 10" either which is the same price, and stretched to a double. Love that FC set in all it's bootleg-ish glory, but I'm fine w/ the original CD.
Would I pay $10 for a standard poster print of the new art? Yes.
-
Oh, I won’t be playing it. Its by far their worst sounding official release. It will be proudly displayed on a shelf with my other Melvins records and gather dust while I fantasize about what I can sell it for on eBay in 10 years (which I have never actually gone through with).
-
Yep, I love the original art and I really dig the new art. If there's another round this weekend I'll consider it, just for show. It might be the most memorable title in the catalog, vying with Prick, Houdini, and Eggnog.
These versions of "The Bloat" and "Mombius Hibachi" are pretty good. Even in a world where I have a turntable set up on the reg I doubt that I'd play something other the CD on the occasions I do return to it.
