    So BUMMED!! Mine is badly damaged! It looks like something sharp and heavy fell on it!!
    There's an actual hole in the cardboard shipping envelope that had been taped over. When I unwrapped it, it was clear that whatever impacted it went all the way through bc the plastic and vinyl cardboard sleeve itself also had a large gash. There is also a very bad corner ding. Additionally, despite being protected by the bubble wrap mailer, the photo book is also damaged. I'm so sad. I emailed TMR. I hope they replace it and quickly without hassle. So sad it see this.

    Don't worry, TMR tends to make things right. :) Just take photos. (but yeah, even when a replacement is a given, it's a bummer to look forward to an album arriving and then getting something that's ruined! Takes the air out of your sails)

    Thanks

    Yes I've heard nothing but good things about their customer service. I'm sure it will be fine. Just a bit of a hassle and disappointment

    R in Philly arrived today.
    Side A has a slight warp to it, but after one listen it did not seem to impact the playback. Sounds pretty solid, lacks some low end punch tho.
    Side B of the 7" is just pressed dead wax, correct? I started to listen but gave up after around 1 minute.
    The book is awesome, great pics.

    I received a package that was literally bent in half from poor handling during the shipping process. Emailed Third Man with pics and they replaced it completely. I did have to send it back on my dime, but well worth it. Great customer service on their end!

    Holy shit. This record is beyond excellent! Pearl Jam leveled up for this show. The mixing on this is impeccable. It sounds perfect. Do yourself a favor and listen to it with a decent pair of headphones and fucking turn it up. And MY GOD OF THE EARTH sounds better than I even imagined! This is the best song they've done thus far IMHO. A fucking wall of guitars with Ed's howling vocals...Jesus Christ! (By the way, Ed sounds absolutely flawless on every song.) JW and McCready going back and forth is relentless and AWESOME. This is the Pearl Jam we all fell in love with but better than ever. Third Man Records did a hell of a job on the sound of this piece.
