I've had the same issue...

Obviously my sarcasm didn't completely translate haha, I have no doubt the claim led to the cassette being sent... even still, I was surprised at that, as I'd thought OT had sort of ceased operations.

For what it's worth, my copy of Fog Lake's "Dragonchaser" cassette showed up today. Within the last two weeks I had finally opened up a paypal claim, expecting nothing to come of it and for a refund to eventually be sent, but it appears (or it's a complete coincidence) to have had some effect. It's a white cassette (rather than black as stated on the website) and numbered 19/100 (rather than the initial 150 claimed by OT).

There are still copies of the splatter available directly from Permanent: http://www.permanentrecordschicago.com/store/p3003/LP_-_Frankie_and_the_Witch_Fingers_-_Sidewalk_.html

Interesting: "Beyond Murder Of The Universe, the band will next release a jazz-based, improv- leaning collection entitled Sketches Of Brunswick East, whose name alludes to both Miles Davis’ Sketches Of Spain, the notion of sketches as outlines for ideas and all- round sketchy behaviour."

This record rules.

This seems like a long shot, but I know there was someone on here once upon a time that either had or was selling one of these... anyone have one they'd let go? Send a PM, thanks!

Promo of 'Perils' on discogs at a pretty fair price: https://www.discogs.com/sell/item/390006705

Unclear, but confirmed from the label 200 total promo copies (some clear with red/green swirl and some white with red/green swirl).

I've had confirmation from Vinyl Films via email that the white with red/green swirl copy of the Mark Kozelek Sings Christmas Carols LP that I picked up is just a variant towards the opaque end of the spectrum on the promo copies, not a unique edition. They also confirmed that all of this recently released backstock is emptied archive material coming from the label into the indie retail stores.

Haha, a couple good grabs for sure. The blue/grey listing and the original colored copies being a pretty solid blue is what made me suspicious, figured it was worth a chance...

My copy of Perils from the Sea arrived today and ended up being one of the promo clear with blue/grey swirl (as I'd suspected)-- just a head's up for anyone that ordered one from Melody Supreme, discogs lists them as limited to only 300.

I went with the body builder only... love that logo.

This.

Spoke with one record store today who said their copies (and I'm assuming the rest of these) came directly from Mark.
