Glad everyone is enjoying the album so far. A ton of effort and emotion went into this one, so I really appreciate that many of you have taken the time to listen. If you pre-ordered from DW, look for your order to arrive shortly as they have all shipped. Special thanks to the crew here at DWHQ for working so hard on getting them out the door the last few weeks. If you pre-ordered from KR, I believe they have all shipped already as well. Thanks. -J.

fuckinnnnnnn teeeeee-shirts!

What sounds like surface noise is actually deer meat sizzling on a frying pan over the fire

Or press Set Sail The Parairie and we are good.

Here's the Clear with Black Blob and Olive Splatter......this came out really nice

I’ve ordered from jpc in the past and never had any issues with them for what it’s worth

Got my box in from DWRC today and this album is just blowing my mind. Packaging is fantastic and the booklet is a really nice touch. Was extremely, extremely fortunate to be given a Friends and Family variant so many thanks to the Deathwish crew and Jake or whoever determines who is lucky enough to be gifted one of these gems! I honestly jumped in the air and squealed like a little kid when I realized what it was!

Pretty good. My clear copy sounds great at least. I think I was just hoping for some more progression from the last album to this one, especially after the calls of AOTY in this thread. Solid album, but I think it got overhyped for me and I was expecting too much. I think that Sprained Ankle seems raw, and honest, and this album comes off more as kind of...whiny? It just doesn't have the same urgency, or pleading tone.

Those prices are bullshit (for everyone who bought them off of the store).

I may love films. But I do not love these prices. I'll wait a year and buy a standard cyan copy for cheaper.

Yeah hey can I talk to you for a second? ...when are we getting those FUCKING t-shirts bro???!?!?!

This record seems to be second only to the Plain pressing of Loveless in the ranking of Pressings That Dorks On The Internet Love To Complain About Unprompted. I play my copy semi-regularly, and yeah, there's a little more surface noise than average, but come on, people. Seems like one of those things that probably originated as a single post on r/vinyl and nerds everywhere decided that it was their opinion, too.

think he's just trolling. either way, just double-checked and he didn't order one so we're good

Any new APC is f-ing good APC!

Set and Setting...Great band!

I have the regular pressing and never had any issues with it. Sure, probably not the greatest sounding record I own, but definitely no defects or artifacts. If this reissue has issues I doubt you'll have any trouble selling it to someone else.

This is legitimately funny.

Available for preorder now... 2LP - Double Heavyweight Black Vinyl With Download 2LP - Rough Trade Exclusive. Only Coloured vinyl version in the world. Limited to 5000 Copies. Double Heavyweight Peach Vinyl with Download. Utopia is the ninth studio album from the iconic Bjork via One Little Indian Records. The new album is another classic from the good lady and her current crew of music makers. It takes in everything from piano and strings to drum machines, beats, bleeps, harps, flutes and samples. The perfect example of how future music can be made by always pushing the boundaries but never forgetting the song. It's another organic and mesmerizing album that unfolds with repeated plays. Simply outstanding - Bjork always is.

In The Clouds just posted this with "Black Friday" as the caption.

First time on vinyl since the original press. Originally released by Epitaph in 1998. Preorder will be up within next couple of weeks. More info soon!

Edit: image didn't show, gonna have to try this from my desktop...

Congrats on that. Feel free to post a photo for the rest of us to jealously ogle, if you get the time. I've only given the album one listen, earlier today, but I have to say that it's even better than my lofty expectations were set at. All this talk of the stellar packaging and hefty booklet have me extra excited for my copy to show up, too.

The only reason I clicked on this thread was because I remember my college roommates and I hovering around my desktop as freshman watching the music video to this hoping we’d see some panty action when her skirt flipped up. We unknowingly would later see full frontal when she lost her shit, shaved her head, and had her crotch immortalized by the paparazzi while exiting a vehicle. carry on.

Phew, managed to cop an orange variant from Discogs at a regular price, since KRM cancelled my yellow. From a domestic seller, too! Bringing the total to less than I originally paid to KRM.

I thought NIN store only and Limited

I dont usually take these types of pictures....still havnt spun any of them.....waiting on a needle still

Hey man, get out of here with your logical reasoning. This is a VC for crying out loud.

You're describing your own approach to adding information to a database but I think it's different than the one Discogs has chosen and enforces. It looks like people do often add information however they think is best but then it gets removed or edited to fit the official rules. I don't know that there's a way to effectively circumvent that moderation.

My boss was the drummer for zeke

Incredible show yesterday; I am still amazed that technology allowed me to watch a show in Belgium LIVE from my desk in Ohio. Back to waiting for each of my vinyl orders..

/100 was pressed along side the green / black S/T. think a couple copies slipped out by mistake - they'll be used for something later email [email protected] and he can help send you out a beach ball!

Seconded, I never thought this sounded as bad as the internet would lead you to believe. Definitely nowhere near unlistenable.

i actually have no idea, i've asked matt on facebook but he never responded they don't match anything on his other records or on his new album

I totally agree with the ridiculous boxset, although I've come to expect this. Wild Hunt had the same type of setup, although it was a 2xLP. Watain could take a dump in a box and I'd still probably buy it. I'm thinking since this album is a little shorter, they've packed a little bit more punch in this record.

Same here. My copy sounds fine. Definitely not one.of my best sounding records, but it seems to fit the sound of the overall album quite well.

I did ask Secretly Store about this and received this reply: "The new limited edition is simply a re-issue of the original master. "

God. This thread is such a shitshow. Still arguably better than Reddit

Hopefully I can pick one up

He is losing his mind

Samesies

New one for anyone with some spare time: I don't know that I've ever listened to an album that sounds so much like a mash-up of post-rock/noise bands at polar opposite ends of the spectrum. Tracks 1 and 2 sound like vintage Godspeed, circa Skinny Fists and Yanqui. All of a sudden track 3 comes on and the first five minutes feel like I just pulled a B-side from Saxon Shore's latest, until it collapses in chaos, ushering in "Roads:" a swirling, apocalyptic concoction of distortion and percussion not unlike Year of No Light or familiar "Piss Crowns" from Godspeed's Asunder. The last two songs bring the album full-circle; "Gathering Clouds" brings back the old-school Godspeed goodness with hints of Mono shining through, while "Parting Hymns" is a largely upbeat finale with chimes and guitar loops that reminder me of Do Make Say Think, although that may perhaps be more my initial reaction than from any actual likeness. Highly recommended.

When pre orders go up, I just hope they have some fucking t-shirts.

Can't wait for Scott and Scott's take on this

Dead wrong.

I've been using Kiwi shoe polish for years with no issue. They have a few different colors but I prefer black so I don't compromise the integrity of the vinyl

I listened to Frames last year, really liked it, then got distracted with other artists and completely forgot about it. On that note, I'm glad this is happening because it's a reminder and an excuse to listen to it again & go through the rest of their discog. Also, I think "Commemorative 9/11 T-Shirt" is one of the best song names I've ever heard.
