Come With Us (XDUST5)

[hstn]

Hey all! Just wanted to let y'all know in a few hours we're gonna do a listening party for Come With Us' 21st Anniversary over on Discord along with B-sides and remixes! Instantreigen and I started the Piku Playground fan server in hopes of bringing together more of the younger chemical siblings in tandem with the forum. We've already done a good amount of listening parties for other albums too! We'll see you there!

Went with Star Guitar and The State We're In. Both really powerful songs, and ones I come back to frequently. Recently heard The State played in the show This Is Going To Hurt which fit in perfectly for the scene as it did in Lost in Translation.

Remember attending a listening party for this a couple of days before release in Helsinki. Probably not the best way to first hear it, but remember it sounded great, if a bit of a disappointment after a trio of front to back perfect albums.

Agree on this being a sort of stop gap album for them in between eras.

The official Chems music store is taking preorders for a new vinyl pressing of Come With Us on 2x yellow LPs.

Release date of June 9th.

Pretty steep price IMO, but that's just how it is with physical music these days.

Had to grab it! Got the 2016 black reissue but despite this being a bare bones reissue, it looks chuffin gorgeous. Steep but going rate it seems in this crazy world.

Have the regular release on vinyl in mint condition, no need for me to get this. If there were bonus tracks on it however I'd be all over it

Strange, I get an entirely different poll than you!

Re: The exclusive 'Come With Us' yellow vinyl

What's the story behind this repressing? Is it just happening because of demand? They really didn't "officially" announce anything other than retweeting another account on Twitter. Not even an email regarding this was available in the online shop.

As a devote 'Come With Us' fan boy, the yellow vinyl is absolutely gorgeous and I would love to pair it with my red vinyl copy. I foresee a 'Come With Us' shrine in my future...

But if the mock-up is exact, they messed up the original cropping of where the text should be on the front cover. This happened with the repress 6 years ago too. What gives?

I too am in the camp of devoted "Come With Us" fan boy. Somehow have five (5) copies of the album:

- CD (scratched to hell from original release. Includes ICome With Us error)
- CD (replacement)
- CD (Gatefold edition)
- Vinyl (Original pressing)
- Vinyl (Limited Red Vinyl)

Do I really need a Yellow edition...no...

Will I get it eventually...yes...

This was taken a few years back, my Come With Us collection has grown a little since including the U.S vinyl, original pressing still sealed!

Except for the sealed original, have you listened to all of them at least once? And besides the Japan release and promo copy, what was the reason for purchasing all those other copies?

I have listened to the original UK vinyl a handful of times and the original CD I bought back on release day in '02 probably 100s of times.
Some of the Japanese releases and reissues are still sealed.
The question of why... because being a obsessed collector... and why not 

You thought this was something, below is my Surrender collection which has grown since this was taken about four years ago. I have added the minidisc, original UK vinyl pressing, advanced promo Japanese cassette and a few more Japanese reissued CDs... #obsessed #noregrets #noreason

And here I am thinking of the crazy idea to go after the cassette tapes released pre-2000. Haven't found any in the wild yet, but I'm sure they're somewhere. This is why I am also obsessed with hunting shiny pokemon.

I have been keeping a keen 👀 on this auction so you never know... but with the exchange rate (Pound vs AUD) isn't pretty, add 28% buyers premium, plus VAT PLUS shipping PLUSSSS Australian GST.... you do the math 

BTW, I do welcome the ChemBase family to follow/check out my Instagram collection page featuring vinyl, CDs, random misc. pieces, latest additions, celebrating release anniversaries, etc... I would love to know what you all think

Anyone else grabbed it?

Dang, delivered on release day. Now that's service!

Very happy the front cover has correct cropping. The only nitpick I can see, and not necessarily a deal breaker, is the vinyl isn't the same shade of yellow as the mock-up. Vibrant yellow instead of golden yellow.

Thanks for posting a photo!
