Likewise, missed it. 
"Purchase Limit 3" seems a little high if there's just 250 copies of each, hopefully every buyer treasures their copies.

Sold out, hope all who wanted were able to snag one.

Newbury exclusive /500

Anyone have an opinion on how the Newberry pressing sounds?

I really dig this album, though can appreciate how fans of her earlier work might find it a little flat.

Liking these tunes better than anything he's released since Blues Funeral - the bio story helps I think - looking forward to the album.

Argh missed out on a Deathwish - thanks for posting though. 

Forget how awesome this group was sometimes, and would have been great if they released more material.

NZ vendors have a blue/black edition if any international fans are interested in getting one of those

I'm really enjoying this album now, it's been a grower for sure. Wasn't too impressed on first listen but very much warming to it.

Love anything any member of Warpaint does 

Yup, totally dig Warpaint & really liked the Right On! album from Jenny Lee too.

Shipping from the official store is very reasonable considering it seems to be UK-based, so ordered the signed vinyl.

Indeed.  I actually prefer the version that was put on Deadwing as a bonus track over the version on Lightbulb Sun too.  It is a very good song.

Agreed, I heard the bonus CD of Deadwing before I got Lightbulb Sun.

The vinyl versions of each album is fantastic, but now to my ears the biggest knock on both is  that neither one contains the 'best' version of Shesmovedon!

Many thanks for the links.

Does anyone have a rough idea on numbers pressed?

Bump - does anyone know of any other retailers with this one yet besides JPC?

Best is tough... Low, Station To Station, Heroes, Scary Monsters are all up there for me.

Nice, swap the order of Low and Station to Station and you have my top four!

But yeah, very difficult question given the longevity of the artist, the wide-ranging stylistic shifts over his career, and personal tastes of the listener.

I really don't have an issue with the only GITD record either, but certainly the weight of anecdotal evidence seems damning.

Still love Moon Safari and will hope to pick this one up!

I have a pink version, and had never noticed the ring nor any playback issues.

Playing it now, I can definitely see the ring. 

And, there is scratchiness in the left channel just before and during the part where the stylus runs over the ring. 

I can no longer access OPs sound file, but it's not a huge issue for me - one of those things I would have otherwise put down to the charm of vinyl.

But seems as though it could be the case with every copy.

One of the most treasured pieces in my collection nonetheless.

Really? I'm going to have to look. I have one also, that I will not be unloading, even if I were thinking so to make a buck now that the new one is announced, I certainly wouldn't do so without hearing the new pressing. The OG blue I have is one of the best sounding records I own, so that would be a large risk for the sake of a few bucks. It's so good that it would be tough to top the original. 

Same here with my OG red, which sounds great. Very tempted by the clear reissue for completion's sake, and of course curious to hear it.

I don't see all that many on ebay...but I do see the prices remain ridiculous. Will be interesting to see where the one starting at GBP 9.99 finishes.

She doesn't seem too enthused on the plastic sleeve herself.

Looks like the yellow is gone from the webstore - deluxe option remains but is pink.

Per Heavenly Records:

 

Hello,

 

We would like to thank-you for pre-ordering the new Mark Lanegan album 'Gargoyle' via the Heavenly Emporium.

 

For those that bought the LP we would like to inform you that your record will be on red vinyl which is limited to 500 copies world wide.

 

 

 

So...if you want to buy it on limited RED Vinyl, get over to Heavenly now:  http://heavenlyemporium.com/buy/gargoyle-4/

 

Much obliged!

No real progress but Feb 2017 newsletter from Mylene Sheath says they're still cometh:

"So we get at least one email everyday asking us if we're going to be pressing up the Jakob catalog on vinyl. We had announced that we would be doing it last year, but the schedules just didn't line up. But we have good news, the wheels are back in motion We'll be pressing the self-titled album, Subsets of Sets, Cale:Drew, and Solace - so be prepared, for they do indeed cometh. Stay tuned!"

That's a shame...would also love to have the Adorata EP in a physical format.

Looking forward to the Lanegan though.

Sounding good!

That's because it turns out I was wrong-- ha. My lithograph print came today, and I was a little bummed when I saw it wasn't signed. At first I thought Wonderful Union screwed up, but as it turns out the deluxe bundle didn't come with a signature. I'm a little disappointed, honestly. To begin, the vinyl itself was a standard black, and not the indie exclusive gold. In addition, while the lithograph was/is cool, I'm not totally sure that it was worth the price. I guess that's what I get for not paying attention to the fine print.

Bummer...yeah upon looking at his website it's either the deluxe w/lithograph, or an autographed sleeve copy - but not both.

Posts at Steve Hoffman think the vinyl version has poor/absent bass quality compared to digital - does anyone have any similar thoughts with their copies?

I got mine the other day. It is a black vinyl, and the signature doesn't come until a later package. 

The website says it's an autographed sleeve - so  just the vinyl itself arrived, and the sleeve will be coming later?

Seems weird.

Thanks for taking the time to post the pic, much appreciated!

I'm specifically wanting to know what the difference is, if any, between the US deluxe and EU deluxe sleeves.
