I just posted photos of the new pressings: THE DRAFT "In a Million Pieces" LP (Four colors) WORRIERS "Past Lives" 7" (Two colors) OFF WITH THEIR HEADS "Hospitals" LP (Recess) (Two Colors) To see them, just click on the records on the mainpage: www.noidearecords.com

I highly encourage folks to gather together to do their orders! Teamwork! Friendship! Music! Peppermint tea!

Heads up: I doubt the red vinyl will make it past The Fest, if even that far.

The two colors we posted for mailorder are nuts. I tried to be evocative with the descriptions. If they were just solid grey, then I would have said "boring grey" or maybe "whale grey" or even "blubber".I will reveal this much: exploding shipwreck has an opaque base and shattered mast has a translucent base. The rest is a secret! A surprise! Still! In 2013!

If you decide to order the second color too, please be sure to put in the NOTES that you already ordered the first color... This would be more important for those outside the USA, of course.

I will definitely have test pressings and things like that, if that's what you mean. The rest will come to light the day before. Ha.

They are all supposed to arrive together... And they are not here yet. I suppose that would make them both part of the first pressing. They are quite different.

I am getting great suggestions for the second press, thanks!

It will be in the next round after these are out.

"Exploding shipwreck" is gone, but there will be other fun colors.

I doubt red vinyl will last that long, for anyone thinking about waiting until November.

Please do me a favor: if anyone on here got one of the empty zip folder links emailed to them, would you please PM your order # to me? Thanks everyone, I think we now have enough examples for the tech heads to explore.

There are no plans to carry them, no.

No and yes.

It is beyond me which of the various bootlegs are okay (if any) and which ones are not okay. Let's just assume that they are ALL total bootlegs made by a handful of people (from a certain European country) who are making money where they see the chance to do that. I have not a clue.

Indeed, just order it and send a note to [email protected] that you would like them to wait to ship together. He'll refund the difference.

Yes, if you type something in that spot, it appears below the order when Matt and Geis look at it. It looks like a piece of goldenrod note paper. Ha.If you mentioned grilled cheese, then you have probably already realized that I read your note.

This is a glitch on the part of our site host. No one was supposed to get a link emailed to them until the release date. Coincidentally, I had the foresight (intuition?) to link a "placeholder" folder. I am very glad that I did that. It is my understanding that any time we update or change that linked folder, you will all get a new emailed link and a message that says something like "hey, you have new stuff to download!" I will keep you posted.

Wow, talk about good fortune masked as good planning! There is currently a team of tech nerds that work for our site host sorting this out. Thanks for posting! Strangely, everything is set correctly on our site so you would get NO links emailed until the release date. Yet it seems many (all?) of you did... perplexing! I believe that each time we update with a new zip file, you will get a new email. (I will refrain from posting new folders with photos of cue dogs and rabbits every five minutes... although... that seems like a decent idea too, now that I consider it.)

Okay, here's an honest question for you (if you trust me and, well... you never know, I might actually be a martian robot tryign to hijack your instagram-cracker account): In 2013, do you care whether this record $12 for mail order if the vinyl color is crazy? I debate this shite endlessly, especially when schemeing neat records and vinyl combos. Then I look around and see $15 for relatively normal records... and that seems too high to me (unless there's a hologram and a bowl of cereal involved). That said, going to the movies is $20 - $25 if you take a date. Yikes!

Go to the shows and find out, haha!

Some of this, some of that.
