Nude With Boots Vinyl

[Like Stee]

Got mine today from CD Universe.  Yep, it's warped, playable but barely.  The quality of the cardboard is shit too. Very flimsy. A total rush job on this one.

When and if it gets repressed, I'll wait and check reviews/pics before buying it again. Some high quality stock cardboard is definitely needed.

The cardboard seems to be the big problem.  I wonder if any of the records would have been warped if a good thick quality cardboard had been used.

I got mine and like the others it is warped, and obviously to me it is due to the extra tight shrink wrapping job they gave these.  It plays fine however and I will probably just put a stack of LP's on it like I mentioned earlier.  I also think it sounds a bit more "vintage" than the CD and not just the normal vinyl vs. CD vintage.  It almost sounds like a different mastering job.  Probably isn't but the LP is much "warmer" than the CD in my opinion.

All vinyl goes through a different mastering process than the CD counterpart....right?

It should.  Doesn't always mean it does.

not sure if I want to go ahead and buy this now or wait until the repress comes out.

Well, thanks to Ipecac ( I hope that's really them ) for addressing the problem.  I too have to believe it's the flimsy cardboard and shrinkwrap.  This record just feels "flimsy" compared to all others I own. 

I'm glad to hear of a possible re-press.  A good way to get more money for the same album I already own on cd and vinyl



Of course, I'll get it.

if they repress it on stronger vinyl that would help a lot right? I don't know shit about vinyl weight or things like that; it just makes sense that 180 gram would be stronger than 120

It would help a lot.  Not only in sound, but just the "feel" of the record.  It's a beautifull record.  It deserves maximum treatment.

There's nothing wrong with owning two copies or more of a Melvins release.  Christ knows I have multiple copies of everything.

if you have anything you are willing to part with that you have multiple copies of, let me know.

[Idlehanz]

Sorry, I'm not parting with any of it

[FartLips]

Sorry, I'm not parting with any of it

willingly, at least.

Despite what DC says, you couldn't rape the Melvins outta me..

I'm sure vinyl does NOT get a "remaster" treatment from the CD pressings. They got it right the first time with NWB. The warmth is a strictly vinyl thing. And MAYBE, just maybe, due to the warp, this vinyl will have some vintagey, warm, oldtime effect.

[Uncle Danny]

To those with warped versions....

Given the response from IPECAC, I hope you all realize you're sitting on collectors' gold.  If I cared a touch more, I'd be buying up as many first pressings as possible.  Just sayin.

Ipecac seems to be passing the buck here.

There will have to be a repress.

End of story.

Looks like your copy is fine.

Yeah I got pretty lucky and got the double vinyl test pressing of it.
