Ah I see. Didn't realize that variant existed.

As a follow-up to my post regarding the Mirror 7" - There are signs of off-gassing on the disc from the sleeve. It still sounds fine, but definitely putting it into a paper sleeve now. Should've done that right away when I got it.

Was on the fence about it when the initial pre-order went up, so I figured I missed out. But checked r/VinylReleases this morning, saw this local store is selling copies. Don't know if I will keep it *and* the upcoming RSD one, but better safe than sorry.

That's one of my locals! It's a cool store. 

Where did you see info about an RSD version?

I always suspected that Turnstile resonates with 4 year-olds but this was a heartwarming read, thanks for sharing.

If this video has taught me anything, you're right lol

I have the original colored press from Urban Outfitters, but I do really like the new cover art and color scheme.

On a related note, I also have the Mirror 7" but haven't touched it in years. I hope the pvc sleeve hasn't damaged it over time. Should prob check on that and put it in a paper sleeve.

I believe the original version was released on RSD, which would explain why it didn't get it's own thread.

Is that vault exclusive limited to 1 per person? If not, I would potentially be interested if someone could grab an extra for me.

Got my copy of the red 3xlp from Luna. Instead of the outtakes/demos LP, got an extra LP of Kid A. Said there’s no way to get a replacement disc. Pretty bummed.

 

If anyone got 2 copies of the bonus disc and is missing a red Kid A disc, let me know. 

Do both of those Kid A discs have the same issues that a lot of others are experiencing (right-channel distortion on the last half of How To Disappear Completely, and popping throughout Motion Picture Soundtrack)?

Yeah, I did. I don't remember the process but I've cancelled through them before no problem.

Good to know, thank you!

Went for the box for the time being, but yeah, if a gatefold color copy comes up I'll cancel it and order the smaller version.

Did you order through Sub Pop? I've never cancelled an order before, so I'm curious of the process. I may go that route too.

Will definitely grab this at some point. I'm debating on that boxset version. I kinda like the standard 2xLP more from a presentation perspective. I wonder if VMP or anyone will have a colored variant utilizing the black standard jacket.

Adam did an AMA on /r/indieheads yesterday (link here). In one response he said a deluxe edition coming at some point. In another response he said a 7" with Ocean Of Darkness and a b-side called Slow Ghost will be released in a few months. Hopefully that's part of the deluxe edition too. And in another post he said there's a 34-minute track called My Ocean Calls that they hope to release someday too!

After the person above me is taken care of, I have a brown cover version I got from Saint Vitus to offload as well. It's Yellow/Orange/Green (outside/middle/inside). No damage to discs or jacket. Cost+shipping.

If anyone wants a copy of the clear MOV pressing, hit me up. I haven't touched it in years and don't really feel the need to hold onto it at this point.

I really want this and will try to get it eventually, but I'm going to do what I did for OKNOTOK and wait until sound quality reviews come out to hear which press is considered the best. I'm assuming they'll have different presses for USA vs EU/UK.

Looks like she watched some Kill Bill before she made the movie. I’m diggin it.

Ha yeah I instantly recognized that chapel and haven't seen those movies in years. Makes me want to re-watch them now.

Love that Dilophosaurus JP variant. That was a fun one to open. Still one of the coolest looking records I own. 

 

 

I actually went 2-for-2 when ordering that. And one of them is still sealed too. I know it's the variant because the plain inner sleeves got ripped just enough to see some color peak out! So naturally, left that one sealed and opened the other to be surprised with the variant again!

Thanks for making this thread!

I'm wondering if we'll see any other variants. If not, I'm in no rush to buy until closer to release date.

Would someone like to make a PO post for their new album please? I'm too lazy and lack the skills to make it pretty like some other PO threads are haha.

PO links so far: red marbled vinyl via official store

That's good to hear, really only care about W&T and my copy is PVC outgassed to hell

I'm in the same boat. I'll wait until a stand-alone version exists again. Have to imagine it will at some point now that they have a version with Convectuoso on it.

I haven't watched too many live GJ vids, but this one has the best (imo) Daryl vocal performance I've seen.

If I didn't know any better, at first glance I'd think "oh what new King Gizzard album is this?" lol

Star post. Like the new single. Interested to hear it in context of the whole album.

Yeah luckily both my MD and SV copies arrived with the discs in place and no damage.

Got my copy from St Vitus today. Can confirm, the disc colors are reversed from what I ordered. On the SV website the colors were listed inside-to-outside. On the barcode sticker on the shrink wrap, the colors are listed outside-to-inside. No biggie I suppose.

Agreed. I'm going to wait until I can hear the full album, but if it's enjoyable enough I'll try to grab that indie variant. The mockup image looks more like "clear/black smoke" instead of "marble". I always think of marble as an opaque mixture of colors. The mockup of the indie variant looks the coolest too imo.
