Awesome Merch isn't an awesome company.

Someone's selling a copy used for less than $12 shipped over on Amazon. I just picked up a different new copy from the same seller for less than $11 shipped. Great album with a few variants now. https://www.amazon.com/Self-Care-Yours-Truly/dp/B08H6JSY1W

To only do 500 records it would have made more sense (in my opinion) to do 1 variant to discourage flippers. So now people can buy 4 copies out of the 500 at once, which to me seems excessive.

This is cool, but I can't imagine it needed 2 variants and 500 doesn't seem to be enough but what do I know. Plus ETR stuff has been flipped like crazy lately.

Thanks, I'm gonna see what happens! I should have bought this record a long time ago.

Holiday is now my favorite Turnstile song. So good.

I thought I saw the general retail in hand, maybe only some got finished?

I'm a huge fan and saw them regularly live. The store was a shitshow. Mage went up late and was "sold out" in 10 seconds (you can't check out that fast). Really sux for me because I've never gotten a wax mage and they're one of my favorite bands. A lot of people got screwed over trying to get the mage and I had friends who also got screwed trying. On top of that the credit card processing was having errors so I was forced to used PayPal anyway.

Awesome Merch isn't the fastest company in my experience. I've used them for in stock items from No Sleep and Topshelf and they take a while.

Your favorite band/artist announced a new album? Great! Don't start a "PO SOON" thread unless there's any solid & legit info on a vinyl release. Get hyped about the release on the EE board. Don't clutter the main board yet.

Wish I could smack an angry react, what a waste of time for the pressing plants and consumer interests.

Very sad. His mom beat cancer twice so lets hope Mark can too. I just lost my mother in law to cancer a couple weeks ago so this hits a little harder.

We have a couple threads for this lol. It's pretty fun to listen to. I should also mention the guy behind it donated thousands to charity from proceeds for the music which is really cool.

https://mondoshop.com/blogs/news/music-weekly-metal-gear-2-solid-snake-snakes-revenge-original-video-game-soundtracks "This week, we are excited to present the next chapter in our ongoing METAL GEAR soundtrack series, with two all-new vinyl releases: First up, the amazing soundtrack to the first sequel in Hideo Kojima's long-running espionage series - METAL GEAR 2: SOLID SNAKE. Second, we will be releasing a super-limited pressing of the technically unofficial sequel to the NES version of METAL GEAR titled SNAKE'S REVENGE. Both available on vinyl for the first time ever, and both featuring artwork by Oliver Barrett. As always, all new releases go on sale on Wednesdays at 12 PM CT at MondoRecordShop.com. "

Work Drugs, The Neighborhood, The Interrupters, The Midnight, Heavy Hearts, Daisyhead, Transit, Pure Bathing Culture, American Football, The Chain Gang of 1974, M83, Shunkan. I could probably go on for a long time lol. I agree with all the ones listed in your OP.

ETR doesn't press enough of a licensed title. Shocking... They've never done that...

Same. I went in a store a couple weeks ago and they had less than 30 different titles. All overpriced and none of them interested me. I could get a lot of the titles elsewhere for cheaper.

In regards to vinyl they've gotten really bad over the last couple of years. If it wasn't for a friend finding me some stuff in store I would have been really screwed over the last few times I got records from them. Best advice I can give is don't give them your money right now.

So the band changed the pressing info... I'm not sure what happened. /100 The Waiting Place (Fluorescent Green in Fluorescent Pink) /200 Black Chrysalis Bloom (Onyx w/ Translucent Flames) - Band Exclusive /200 Draining + Drilling (Onyx and Silver pinwheel with Cherry Red Splatter) /500 Starlit Static (Mistral Blue w/ Sparkles) /1000 Glass Replicant (Clear with Arctic Pearl, Frost Bite Blue and Onyx Splatter)

Nice! He's a really cool dude. Since it's the band's local store I'd hope they got a lot. They deserve the business.

Not sure how many Kaiju in Salisbury got but they said yesterday they can invoice and ship it.

Link is down. Prices are ridiculous and always have been. A friend of mine bought Eggy Pocket thinking it was a 2LP based off the mockup and price, only to find out it's really expensive. I'm not sure what Jarrod's reasoning is for that.

"TLDR: We pressed three new 7 inches and two new LP's from recordings buried in our archive of heavy hitters circa 2003-2009. Order this mystery package to help us cross the finish line moving our HQ and opening our new record store! Over the past six or so months as we've prepared to move our office, we've been cleaning, organizing and packing. During that process, we've dug out all sorts of rare recordings from our archive that we'd forgotten we had and special sessions that had been filed away. We've been sharing updates about the new office that we're moving to, and the renovation that Chris Wrenn has been doing there over the past few months. What we haven't really talked much about is that the new office will also have a RECORD STORE! Our own dedicated retail space where you can get everything Bridge Nine, but also records from our favorite bands and labels too. Last year, we released our "Raid The Vault" mystery boxes where we included test pressings and out of press variants of records from our discography, which helped us secure the space that will be our new HQ. Now, in the spirit of Record Store Day and to help us get across the finish line moving and renovating the building, we're offering our "Raid The Archive" boxes - which include FIVE special recordings, circa 2003-2009. This collection includes two new LP's and three new 7 inches that pull from Bridge Nine's heavy hitters during those years (featuring a very special unreleased recording from a band that we tried to sign back then, but couldn't), each housed in a full color glue-pocket jacket. If you are a fan of mid-2000's Bridge Nine, you will definitely want to get your hands on this! This is a pre-order item. Due to the recent delays at pressing plants we anticipate this collection shipping in September, so please be aware of that. We will be sending updates as everything comes in, and hope to ship sooner than that! **EUROPE: These boxes are heavy, so order it from Coretex! Grab one HERE! **U.S. Orders: Order this item separately!"
