  1. Ordered the Rough Trade exclusive. My experience with "eco -mix" vinyl as they're calling it (both the limited edition colored pressing and the standard black pressing) has not been positive. They are usually an ugly greyish mess as far as color goes and noisier than most colored vinyl. I have heard some say that paper will often make it's way into the recycled vinyl mix but I have my doubts on the validity of that claim. The autograph on the 4AD exclusive would have been nice, but I'd prefer the bonus CD and potentially cleaner pressing.

  2. I was into the Charlatans for a while. My interest started to wane with Wonderland and by the time I saw them tour for Simpatico they had moved on from what I enjoyed about them and I lost interest. I've got recent reissues of Some Friendly, Between 10th & 11th, their self-titled, Tellin' Stories, Us & Us Only and Wonderland. I'd love it if they gave Up To Our Hips a wider released reissue.

     

    I've never listened extensively to Tim's solo music.

  3. Amoeba is also taking preorders for the white vinyl pressing. I was able to use the 2-day sale code MAR15 to take 15% off.

  4. Craft Recordings will be reissuing Why Do Birds Sing? On October 8th. They've put up preorders for standard black as well as an exclusive pressing on transparent red (750 copies). There is also an indie exclusive on smoke colored vinyl. No mention in the comments as to the source for the remaster.

    Your luck is my loss. You beat me by a minute. I guess that's what I get for asking for help.

    If you're not set on a signed copy, I did find a UK store, Intense Music, still taking orders. I'm not familiar with them. Comes out to the same price as Resident and Rough Trade were selling them for with shipping.

     

    It's also listed on discogs now. Maybe stores will start putting some up for sale there.

  6. The glow in the dark 12" is another in a very long list of Cleopatra reissues of the same 3 tracks in various colors. It's not authorized by artists and generally considered to be a low quality release. Don't bother with it.

     

    I'll be picking up the other three 12"s, though it does seem likely that they will be easy to find discounted in the not too distant future, just like the recent New Order reissues. I'm not sure how much of a market there is for 12" singles these days.

  7. My pre-order for the Special Edition is scheduled to be delivered tomorrow. Couldn't turn down the option for unique hand-drawn artwork. It was supposed to have been limited to 50 but Emily mentioned on Instagram that she drew a few extras, some of which are still in stock. Definitely looking forward to hearing what the album has in store.

  8. Target may have let the cat out of the bag. Temporary Residence seems to be releasing a long awaited reissue of Explosions In The Sky's debut How Strange, Innocence as well as giving The Rescue it's first vinyl pressing. Both are scheduled for August 16th and judging by price point and recent TRR release strategies there will likely be both black vinyl and retail exclusive colored vinyl pressings.
