It had a scratch. Would you like a scratch on your record when it arrived to you?

Mine had a scratch too, I considered emailing them to replace it but I ended up being to lazy and not writing the email. After listening through a few times I let it go because it didn't really affect the playback. I was still kinda pissed though. When I open a sealed record, I expect it to be scratch free.

Yup. On track to arrive by end of day Friday. Perfect.

Anyone think this will arrive by the release date? No shipping confirmation and it's already Tuesday. 

Got the same, ordered at 8:17 PST

Must have just missed it, my order was at 11:25 EST. Didn't get an email.

I saw them put on a great set in NYC the year they release MPP. I also saw some sub par sets. Ordered.

I think I was too late for the poster though. It's already crossed out on their site.

I ordered one from the HT website. I'm really curious to hear the sound of this pressing compared to the OG pressing. I bought an OG copy like 6 months ago and it's probably in EX condition and it sounds amazing. 

If you live in NYC you can purchase it from "The Good Company"

I picked this up last night  http://imgur.com/Poo8YxI(I can't figure out how to upload)

is the tricolor sold out?  first link is a 404 for me and I can't find it anywhere else.

Looks like it's still up: https://kinggizzard.bandcamp.com/album/paper-m-ch-dream-balloon

Holy shit, I didn't even know it came with a download.  I ordered it from my phone, so I was out of the know.  Might have to download it when I get the chance.  Did they send a link in the email or something?

You have to go into your order email and click the review your order link and you can find the DL on your order through the ATO website

Well, once it's released.  And I think a preview track a few days before it's released.

Yes, but also you get the single Paper Mâché Dream Balloon right now. I just downloaded it and listened to it this morning.

Honestly, I expected it to go faster.

1000 is a lot. It took them a few hours to sell the 500 copies of Quarters. Also, they might hold some back to take on their AU tour. 

The ATO pre order comes with an instant download of Paper Mâché Dream Balloon which is pretty solid IMO.

posting this here as well because I can't figure out how to change the topic headline: http://atorecords.com/papermachedreamballoon/

So looks like the /400 signed copies sold out

how can you tell?

pre-order is up http://kinggizzardandthelizardwizard.com/album/paper-m-ch-dream-balloon

Amazing!

Bump!

Will this new release likely get an Australian release via Flightless as well?  The new ATO deal is for US only, correct?

I would think so. They own flightless. Might get a Heavenly release for the EU as well.

So this is just an announcement for an announcement?

I'm guessing this is the announcement of the release date and album title. Maybe pre order info. To date the only info we have is that they've signed to ATO and the album will be released in the fall

Releasing info on 8/17 for their 7th album

I actually was searching a little yesterday to find some info but alas, nothing. They've been super quiet on FB and twitter lately. They just updated their FB page with a photo of the NA tour schedule. Something has to be happening soon my friends... soon (also, the start of fall is still technically a month and a half away!)

Sounds like a bootleg. Beck bootlegs have been coming out of the woodwork as of the last year or so.

I got mine yesterday, pretty beat up even with the extra padding on the sides.

I haven't heard of any new news yet, hopefully very soon!

Still waiting on my aus copy with lenticulars...anyone else in the U.S. waiting?

Yeah also still waiting, got my copy from amazon on Saturday.

They never sent me an email with a shipping notification, it just showed up a few days ago. Hopefully you still get a grey one, I did notice that on the website, they now have a 10 dollar minimum notification under the 7", even though it was free shipping at first. I wonder if only the first 200 shipped free and were the grey variant?

They almost never send shipping notifications, and as spoon notes they have had that $10 minimum purchase up on the site for a long time. I've been ordering 7" records from them (for a total of $6) for a while and have never had any problems. It'll show up soon enough. Don't worry.
