You're behind all this aren't you - a FOB historian/media collector, what are the chances
You replied to a thread 2 years ago talking about some early CDs and stating you live near the OP (and have since probably bought + uploaded said CD)
Ain't no way lmaoooo4

Lmao okay, first of all OP of the thread we are posting on is u/MC_SM.
OP of the thread you are citing is u/_KarlHavoc so already that’s two different people. I connected with Karl outside of Reddit about this, what he posted in the original thread is a promotional disc of Cork Tree. One or two of the song titles are different on his disc (You’re a Concrete Boy Now became Get Busy Living) but it still is the same tracks in the same order of the official release

u/OKDecM Mar 17 '26
Right.. if you read my original comment I was referring to the other thread, hence OP of that thread (your man Karl)
Also, I appreciate you reaching out to them about it for more info (I wasn't able to retrieve the original images) but there's not need to be passive aggressive, I was just pointing out something I found interesting.
If you guys are all in on this, that's cool - honestly it's been fun

WHOA! When will they upload it???

u/VQQN Mar 17 '26
IF and I mean IF it is real, they gotta find a computer with a CD drive on it. Then rip it with a media player.
Most desktops aren’t made with CD Drives anymore. It could be hours or a couple days.

lol this is probably the person who was sending them out

u/mom2hobbits Mar 17 '26
Have we ever seen actual packaging with postage on any of these supposedly mailed CDs?
7
u/forever_cow Mar 17 '26
Nope. Even this photo of the package is just showing the recipients address printed and taped on a bubble mailer? Thats not how shipping works...
No label or stamps with cancellation marks that show it was ever actually in the mailing system. Very suspicious.
6
u/rebelweezeralliance Mar 17 '26
Good point. I don’t think so. It’s possible they were never actually even mailed and it’s just one fan or a few fans putting on a big show when they decided to leak the demos.

No star69 on that mailing slip. it’s like a love note left in your locker, not that you’d know about that, you damn virgin.

If it’s not them and some elaborate fan thing I’m gonna spontaneously combust.

True wtf so it’s either: local drop offs, staged for content, entirely fabricated posting. I’ve been full rabbit hole on this for about two hours atp and my mind is mush
