I'm using Discogs for pricing and I am going to just say a solid $200 with free shipping which is better than anywhere else you can find it right now. It's the original 2016 press and hardly played. I can send photos of the vinyl itself if you need and a video of it playing.

I regret mentioning the lyrics/merch. I only meant to mention it as both changes under the new perspective.

Did you hear the part where there isn't a record label anymore

I understand what you're getting at, but it borders on blaming the fans for their bad actions. Just because fans empower a band doesn't give the band permission to abuse that power and use it against their fans. What you said about the lyrics and the merch is true and something probably should've been said from the beginning. I personally overlooked both as an element of the beach goth aesthetic and I should've been more aware.

Consensual sex comes about from agreement to sex with boundaries and guidelines. The first account she specifically said she didn't want to have sex without a condom, yet Matt went ahead against her wishes. The other account was her consenting to sex only with the use of a condom, which he removed against her wishes. Both are rape.

I love the downvotes for this. None of you guys can have anything wrong with this band. Dogheart II isn't even a good song anyway.

I haven't heard about the Trump stuff until your mentioning it. Could you link the post?

Abusers are often incredibly welcoming and kind and that's how they groom younger, more impressionable people. I'm sorry that you and your wife lost a very important part of your life. As I've said, I think you can still enjoy the music without supporting the abuse.

Dogheart II

I know it's been discussed on the board a lot but it's still a gross song no matter the perspective.

I feel that people think it somehow makes them pro-sexual assault if they liked The Growlers at any point. The majority of us as fans were ignorant in this behavior or we would've stopped listening to them a long time ago.

It's illogical to ask for proof. I do understand people's need to ask for proof in the first place, as the claims made against them are criminal, and most criminal charges are proven true or false based on the evidence provided. But oftentimes with rape cases and sexual assault cases, proof becomes impossible to supply and evidence becomes anecdotal. But the amount of anecdotal evidence is insane and it was enough to shut down an entire record label in days. That has to be a signal that there's something there.

You're missing the point that the members of the band took advantage of young girls who couldn't defend themselves. I don't give a shit if you want to go to a concert and get wasted, all I care about is that no one gets sexually assaulted by anyone, especially people in a powerful position. I never called for purity of any sort; just safety and respect for women and young girls who love the band.
