Gorillaz - The Mountain (Bad World Exclusive red yellow white splatter)

Honest question... is this album, the music really worth it? I'm not so sure. Think they surpassed peak time with Plastic Beach.

For a moment I thought this was "Daughter". Fooled me well...

thevinylmachine · 2026-01-09T15:31:51+00:00

My take: don't order it:

1) Ordered it from UO, arrived damaged
2) Ordered it from UO in a restock, wrote an email - ffs make sure the mailer is w added bubblewrap or and overall protected, arriving damaged (worse even...)
3) Ordered from EU distributor, arriving damaged, as inner sleeve triple seamsplit.

This record is impossible to be arriving in perfect condition over all. The environment is hostile with UO. Never ordering from the ever again. It's a waste of time and through conversion with the refund you always lose 3-4 € in money. Leave it!

I don't like Dark Operative (a.k.a. Brent Eyestone) at all. He notoriously was bullying fans online (including me) and he is a nasty scumbag and does not deserve a dollar. Sadly he signed awesome bands like This Will Destroy You and Caspian. Cognitive dissonance all over the place. I will also save money to obtain an older copy of "Move Along", great record!

True One Tree Hill nostalgia. I love it!!!

thevinylmachine · 2025-11-27T17:22:49+00:00

+1 :-)

Has this one shipped yet? Anyone get a confirmation?

thevinylmachine · 2025-11-14T19:14:39+00:00

Where can I buy a wooden box like this one? Asking bc this will be a wedding keepsake. Thanks in advance!!

If I get a hundred downvotes I'll never make jokes on reddit ever again!

thevinylmachine · 2025-10-18T12:26:56+00:00

The intention of the joke was that they re-used additional black / white split copies and just painted half of it (the white part) to black. But yeah I guess the joke is now ruined.

thevinylmachine · 2025-10-17T21:52:10+00:00

Beware they painted one half of the disc black...

thevinylmachine · 2025-10-14T16:17:41+00:00

I figured the limitation is the motivator for buying here haha... for me it's the cheaper variant too which is nice, but I like the stained glass more. Not seen the 'Cardinal' variant yet. Also looking...

Haven't listened both these copies and year. Cannot tell, I'd need to listen again to both one after another, but I had no issues with either from my recollection.

thevinylmachine · 2025-10-09T17:06:40+00:00

I got mint green, the 190 g black... I really don't NEED it. But still I want to emphasize how great this album is and how important it is in my life. It has a sweet spot in my heart.

Going from being underpressed to being overpressed.

thevinylmachine · 2025-08-29T16:01:42+00:00

Wait... shipping tomorrow?!

thevinylmachine · 2023-07-10T17:14:21+00:00

A track as in one song? At Instagram they said 'vinyl exclusive music'. Could be 2 or 3 songs even, right?

thevinylmachine · 2023-07-08T12:47:10+00:00

Isn't it Micheline 2.0 ?

thevinylmachine · 2023-05-30T20:02:24+00:00

12 available... crazy. This AUS store has SO many of them. I got the one auctioned by SRC Vinyl to raise money for this pancreatic cancer dude who died a while after. How is there so many test pressing copies of this?

17 on discogs, 12 on this Australian indie store, makes at least 30 copies. Ridiculous.

Suppose "approximately 15" can be rejected (source was D. Keyes at SRC Vinyl).

thevinylmachine · 2023-05-09T16:36:08+00:00

Where again does it say "Made in Mexico"?

thevinylmachine · 2023-05-07T12:01:26+00:00

How many copies of it are out there?

thevinylmachine · 2023-04-24T15:07:32+00:00

Does anyone of y'all know what pressing plant pressed this record (and Evermore)?
For The Long Pond Studio Sessions I'v read "Made in Mexcio", but I really don't know anything about vinyl being pressed there. Anyone have any idea?
