Why did they feel the need to press this on vinyl

Bass sounds great and no I never listen to it because if I'm stoned enough to sit through it I won't change the record, big oversight on their and my part

its such a journey when your high though

Is this the definitive version of the album?

No Jerusalem is.

Money.

>implying vinyl isn't the best form to own and listen to any music

Dopesmoker is the exception

It is an hour long song, and on vinyl it's spread across 3 sides. It's annoying.

True but still worth picking up for that dope-ass artwork.

>digitally mastered albums on an analog format
>having a one-song album over 2 records
no user

this.

Printing something already digital onto vinyl won't automatically make it sound better. At best, it'll sound exactly like the digital version. and since this song in particular is too long to fit on one side of a vinyl record, you're diminishing the quality of your listening experience.

because it sells well for some reason
look at all those re-pressings jfc

>Released in 2016
The better question is why Tapes have been making a comeback.

haha you can tell when the "indie vinyl" boom hit

who would buy a one song album on vinyl ffs

>indonesia

i like tapes for vaporwave/punk/electronic/early hip hop shit where aesthetic > sound but theres no fucking reason why there should be cassette pressings of 98% of the shit out there

You could just put your turntable on repeat and live that same side over again forever.

Not every TT has repeat
(does the lp120 have repeat?)

Tapes have always been around in the underground Black Metal/Grindcore/Noise ect scenes. Not enough people listen to this kind of music and most of the artists are unsigned or signed to micro labels. Its a diy thing in this sort of scene. That being said its a wannabe "hipster" thing to appeal to cucks who wear scarves and thick rimmed glasses. Its the difference between "shit, Billy. We only have $150 dollars to invest in this album so cassette it is!" vs. "omg so vintage I am a unique consumerist"

cassettes only make sense for underground artists due them being really cheap and something physical to hand out

Do either of you know if there are any good tape manufacturers to send stuff to? When I put out a tape 5 or so years ago, there was only Kingdom Tapes, who specialized in recordings or sermons and shit.

cassette is the most metal format to release music on, it's a call back to tape trading days during the birth of death and black metal

Not really desu. Most of them will gouge you hard. Try learning how to do it yourself, its not difficult and very cheap. There's definitely a market for DIY shit. Its small but its super dedicated.
