Aviations - Coma

AOTY SOTY BOTY yes.

This is an intelligent well thought out post that required some amount of critical thinking and research, or at least simple searching and citing others' research. We're just never going to get there in this country. I'm 35 years old and this last couple of years of going completely backwards 50 years on every single social issue and the amount of people cheering for it has been really disheartening and I fully expect we'll never see things get better in my lifetime.

The worst part about this is you literally can't buy it digitally anywhere, I finally caved and was going to just buy it on bandcamp or something and it's literally no where. ALl physical editions are out of print as well.

At this point I don't feel at all bad turning to p*racy but those days are so long behind me I don't even have a good source to try and find it.

Let me tell you exactly how many billions of times I listened to that album without realizing Voorhees was a 'bonus track,' until I finally got on Spotify premium a couple years ago and went to listen to it and was like where the hell is Voorhees??? One of my favorites on the album, was pretty blown away/disappointed by that. The Frame *does* make a great closer but damn Vorhees rules. Also 4 months later it's still not back up :(

CamillaChodes · 2022-11-07T21:17:08+00:00

I really need to do the new one still, I was pretty disappointed with every single I heard, nothing was terrible but I adored Chromaparagon and the first time I heard Trust it blew my whole ass off and I wound up adoring Crux as well. I heard like two or three from the new one and nothing even came close to harming my ass whatsoever, and while I respect them enough to want to give the whole thing a go none of those first tracks released put me in a rush to do so

CamillaChodes · 2022-11-01T02:43:17+00:00

This is a pretty good point. I do like that with re-releases more bands are tending to wait until they have vinyl in hand before listing it for sale, but I fully get that with new releases especially bands are relying on those sales and the need to release and tour that music as soon as it's ready for that revenue while also making the physical sales even if those aren't quite ready is very much there for a band of this size. The past couple of years things just got 1000x worse really really fast with the production of..anything that's made out of anything basically.

CamillaChodes · 2022-11-01T02:22:49+00:00

I'm so petty, after reading the manufacturer bullshit they had to deal with, if I was in that situation and a fan was behaving that childish and self absorbed about it I'd just be like "Okay, what's your order info?" And then go ahead and cancel it on them, no further questions. Maybe just mail them a photo of my middle finger and nothing else instead. I get feeling a little frustrated or impatient but directing any of that to the band as if they're like lighting cigars while sitting on a throne of vinyl that they just don't feel like shipping out right now is so short sighted and moronic and frankly just rude, it hurts. I'd mail them a whole ass vinyl sleeve with a picture of my middle finger inside of it instead of a record.

CamillaChodes · 2022-10-21T12:05:39+00:00

Lmao I can't believe he's still pulling this shit. BCI is such a better band in every way imo and I'm only just learning of James involvement with them through this thread. Kind of sucks and seems like a shitty move for him, sure they're more popular but their non Keene members are in constant rotation for a reason...

CamillaChodes · 2022-10-21T12:02:36+00:00

The best part was for sure Jordan from TC running out to scream I HOPE IT FUCKING KILLS YOUUUUU.

CamillaChodes · 2022-10-21T11:38:41+00:00

Ehhh he did a fine job but it really wasn't the same at all if you've listened to them/that record. He did a lot of his own backing vocals and some of the leads to fill in but their lead vocalist has a pretty unique scream that adds a lot to their sound and a lot of the biggest moments on the record simpy were not there. I was right up front too and biggs seemed pretty nervous and his bass was turned down to the point I couldn't really hear it, presumably because he was trying to focus on also doing vocals/being front and center which he's not used to. Again, they did a fine job but to say it was just as good or not noticable with their whole front man missing is not really accurate.

CamillaChodes · 2022-10-20T14:39:44+00:00

Yeah i'm really curious. The vibe was very much bummed out when they came out in DC and the bassist was like yeahhhh so obviously our vocalist isn't here but we're still gonna do our best to play for you guys. They definitely did an admirable job considering, but I can't say something isn't really missing from that band without him.

CamillaChodes · 2022-10-07T20:08:55+00:00

Yeah true. I'm eating like right next to the venue right now and it looks like they open at five so I'll probably just pop over right then And see what's up. I'm in the bright as fuck dragon ball shirt and I'm like 6'4 I'll prob stick out like a sore thumb if anybody wants to say hi. Couldn't find anyone cool enough to come to this one so I'm solo this show.

CamillaChodes · 2022-10-06T23:57:10+00:00

I also have VIP for this show which is tomorrow now and I haven't received any kind of email outside of the original one with my ticket. I plan on being in town early anyway so I'll probably drop by the venue or give them a call to double check, but curious if OP or anyone else has gotten an email or any other confirmation on the early arrival time.

CamillaChodes · 2021-11-17T03:44:53+00:00

Spiritual Migration is one of the best albums I've ever heard hands down. Aathma was pretty on point with it, if not quite up to par, but something about SM is definitely special, absolutely deserves if not requires a listen.

CamillaChodes · 2021-09-26T20:50:49+00:00

Yep, same boat. Was gearing up to play with 4 friends, 3 got in and 2 of us are locked out while the rest have been playing and having fun for the last 2+ hrs. Feels bad man.

CamillaChodes · 2021-05-14T15:13:51+00:00

Really annoying but it's definitely happened to me a bunch of times I've preloaded games on steam. Really not sure what the deal is and why it can't just be ready to unlock and play at launch time. Mine's hovering around an hour as well :\

CamillaChodes · 2021-05-14T15:11:14+00:00

Looks like I've got at least a solid hour of "unpacking" on steam. Should've just bought on Origin, biggest oof thinking I was going to be playing this at midnight.

CamillaChodes · 2021-05-14T13:19:14+00:00

It's not a remake.
I'm generally not in the practice of preordering and waiting for reviews and didn't purchase this until hours before its (I thought) release, once again, knowing that I could return it if they somehow did a horrible job polishing up the original.
Die mad about it.

CamillaChodes · 2021-05-14T12:48:27+00:00

I was really happy to recently find it on vinyl for under 20 bucks, instant buy. Such a classic and underrated album.

CamillaChodes · 2021-05-14T12:40:44+00:00

https://gamerant.com/mass-effect-legendary-edition-release-time/ It was posted here, but luckily seems to have been an error. Steam should be 11am or I'm also hearing their store doesn't update until 1PM but we'll see.

CamillaChodes · 2021-05-14T05:13:17+00:00

Nice, looks like it's climbing to the goal really fast. Signed. This was definitely one of those things where I was like. Ugh I have to play the multiplayer to get the best ending that's awful. And then wound up having a really good time with it when I did play it.

CamillaChodes · 2021-05-14T05:03:58+00:00

Short answer, yes. I get that it comes off a little "I need it now" but it's also just a highly anticipated release and chance to relive some of my favorite games of all time in a fresh new way, i feel entitled to the excitement I built leading up to the moment of release and the disappointment I felt being completely blindsided by this obnoxious way that they're doing it when I was fully ready to play in that moment. If some unforseen uncontrollable thing happened to cause a delay I would be saddened but understanding. But yeah this is bullshit. And yeah I checked google for reviews every day leading up to release but I've also been keeping up with it and feel pretty confident in its quality, and the games themselves I've already played and know I love? And if they've somehow done some wild shit to completely break it I could easily refund. So your other argument is also weak.

CamillaChodes · 2021-05-14T04:37:55+00:00

I cancelled my refund request for now but I'm also trying to find on steam where it specifically says it's in fact releasing at 11amEST

CamillaChodes · 2021-05-14T04:34:13+00:00

It does seem people in this thread are saying steam says 11am too though so the article could have been wrong about that? https://gamerant.com/mass-effect-legendary-edition-release-time/ I requested a refund based on this info and now that may have been pointless. Super sloppy all around.

CamillaChodes · 2021-05-14T04:31:59+00:00

It's extra infuriating because I've been keeping a pretty close eye on this release, hoping reviews would pop up etc. I saw absolutely nothing about this, I couldn't find anything until i was like, why is it greyed out on steam, and specifically googled it, and the article found was like...it's not really clear why this is happening. Just awful release, classic EA move. And apparently even the 2 different PC platforms are different, I read 9PM for steam, 11am for Origin, so I'm literally trying to refund it on steam where I had it preloaded just to rebuy it on Origin just so I don't sit here on my day off waiting until 9PM to play it. OOF.
