  1. Looks awesome, I'm jealous I was passed on the blue pressing, although to charge 12 bucks extra for it seemed unnecessary.

     

    I think it was 22 extra.

     

     

    As far as inserts go, the original just has a red piece of paper with lyrics on it. You could make your own and it'd probably be better quality haha

  2. Stoked to finally get my copy. My favorite EP of the year

    Any word on when the repress is going up for sale? I don't want to miss out again..

    I'm not 100% but didn't they take pre-orders down for the first press because of the delay? Because damn it sold out way faster than the LP.

  3. Does anyone know why these are shipping from Matador? That's probably why there's such a difference between those getting theirs and not getting theirs. Got mine 4 days ago.

    This record really clicked for me today and I ended up listening to it about 10 times. To me the long songs (Ecce, Eating Disorder, In A Small Body, Tried to Quit Smoking) are better than anything they've previously done while the shorter songs do a good enough job tying them together. Goddamn Eating Disorder is such a great track.

  4. Got this randomly in the mail today. Came straight from Matador for some reason (I guess they're the XL distro) and I was silently hoping I'd won some contest that I forgot about since I hadn't ordered anything from them lately haha. The red is opaque and the sleeve is gatefold and made from the same material as The Monitor. This is a very handsome package for $13.

    I'm actually enjoying the album quite a bit after a few listens... other than The Electric Man.

    I agree with jetsfan though, this album sounds like they're distancing themselves from The Monitor quite intentionally. Making an album like that twice would probably cut 10 years off Stickles life haha.
