ODD FUTURE WOLF GANG KILL THEM ALL

big demographic is also people who "used to like rap when it was good" and who would never listen to any new rap.

"when it was good" any time between 1980 and 2000.

A touch tangential but of relevance (Tyler's mentioned along with a link to Lex's Guardian piece.)

we've been there and done that, ned. please try and keep up.

Can't. Hurts.

my little brother is 19 (ten years younger) and uses "gay" as a pejorative all the time. i also have a mate at work who will say things like "my email's gayed up" or "hmmm... something seems to have gone agay". it doesn't really bother me because i don't actually think they hate gay people, it's just a verbal tic they picked up at school or whatever.

oh, and i think "goblin" is awes. i admit it could be 15 mins shorter, though.

lol @ that new yorker comic

bought a copy of goblin today. when I walked into the local indie chain record store, two other guys were coming in with me, turns out they were looking for goblin too. the store was out of the deluxe version, had 3 copies left of the regular version. so I bailed and headed over to best buy. there was 1 copy left there.

nice packaging.

i bought a copy and then XL sent me one

#firstworldproblems

deej's plan to boost sales by stirring up web buzz seems to be working

if i heard somebody's saying "my email's gayed up" i would totally crack up cuz that is hella stupid
whiney give me ur copy

i think you should only say that if your email is full of gay porn spam

*raises hand*

Gonna be interesting when all the press hype about whether these guys will sell records becomes a deciding factor in their ability to sell records

then again they could just say fuck it and continue to give away their records.

ain't gonna happen dude

So how many people on this thread spent money to buy this in the store.

I'm #1, Edward III is #2....

Not me, but I paid for the Amazon download.

i'll count that as #3

I got it on itunes

#5 - picked it up on tuesday, deluxe

think scott bought one 300 posts ago

yah, cost me fifteen dollars and ninety three cents.

for the deluxe edition.

regular version was on sale for $9.99 but i said fuggit i only buy two new CDs a year. this year is pj harvey and tyler. last year was waka and devin the dude. didn't really dig the devin album.

Bought the deluxe edition for $13.99 before tax at a local shop.

hi dere, deluxe version $9.99 yaaaaaay (and so glad the booklet for the regular version is included, love that cover art and zzzz @ the tyler photo on the deluxe)

this thread is long

riot!

video from outside the store, posted on YouTube by AllstonPudding, shows 20-year-old Tyler and another member of the notoriously unpredictable group hyping the crowd

glad the writer used the phrase "quell the shenanigans"

as in "shamrocks and"

I heard rumours of a donnybrook, but it may just have been a foofaraw.

the only way that could have been a more perfect fox25 story is if, like, it had happened at hampton beach

FTR the non-deluxe was £17.99 vinyl and £8.99 CD in my local shop. Don't like it enough to part with £18 for it.

lol gya

lol @ everyone shelling out for the deluxe edition of an album that they all agree is too long even in the regular edition

hey, i paid three extra bucks to make it look better, "burger" is just a happy accident

the heart wants what the heart wants

plus now I have the lyric sheet, easier to compile offensive word count imo

this thread is long

in retrospect we should've created a new thread for the goblin release

guess it's not too late but eh

I never pay attention to this kind of shit, does anybody know the correlation between billboard and itunes charts? goblin's still floating around in the itunes top 10. between that, my anecdotal record shop visits, and the number of ilxors running out and buying, I'm guessing this thing is moving some units. enough to chart top 10?

okay so it looks like it's going to chart...

oh he's in a sales race with the almighty Christina Perri

and the cars lol

he's beating the glee dude whose single is a cover of "Over The Rainbow" with Gwyneth Paltrow, though

Funny that Tyler won't even be the biggest album for Adult Swim enthusiasts, though
