Wisp now have physical copies of her Pandora EP. Vinyl and signed CD. https://www.musicbywisp.com/#/

AVAILABLE NOW! “Boundary Problems” by Time Pieces is a sprawling and intimate love letter to Midwestern indie. This version is the special “Mind Over Matter Edition” which features colored vinyl and a deluxe, reverseboard jacket. It’s so incredibly emotive and this vinyl pressing is limited to only 105 hand-numbered copies. These are available right now and will be shipping in the next week! Time Pieces | Boundary Problems (mindovermatterrecords.com)

I think my Target edition shipped. I’m ok with that one.

Coke Bottle Clear of Sumac's The Healer up on their BC now... The Healer | SUMAC (bandcamp.com) And noticed on Thrill Jockey's site too: The Healer (thrilljockey.com)

Yeah...someone posted over on the NIN Discord that it's the same plates as the DE. So that answers that.

To be 100% honest...it sounds the same. I don't hear much of a difference. But also my Tinnitus has been acting up more than usual due to continued stress at home and work, so that's not helping much.

Fuuuuuuuck. 🤬

Received the IVC edition of The Downward Spiral today. Pretty nice & solid. I like it.

Well. My copy arrived today Sunday. Nice surprise. It’s in perfect shape. I’m glad they put the records in poly-lined paper sleeves so not to damage the printed ones. Nice touch. And the resealable plastic sleeve is nice & thick. So far I’d say I’m impressed with IVC. I’ll re-up for Helmet’s Betty.

Also in that vein...and adjacent to Nothing and Whirr...check out Wisp. She does some fuzzed out heavy shoegaze.

Sorry…Nothing’s BC page: https://nothing.bandcamp.com/album/whirr-nothing

The Whirr/Nothing split reissue will be up on Funeral Party’s Bandcamp at 12am PST / 3am EST Friday morning.

My copy should arrive next week. I guess I may have ordered much later than everyone else. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I find it curiously funny that when the whole WHIRR “cancellation” happened, G.L.O.S.S. were riding high for a hot minute and then almost overnight just faded to be never heard from again. And yet, WHIRR didn’t really get cancelled as they still played shows, albeit very few, and put out new stuff, and from the looks of things, are still popular. Weird how that all played out.

That explains why the article just meandered and repeated itself throughout.

Shipping notification for NIN already?!?!? I will take it!

I read this piece...although it's hella long...that addresses in part on why WHIRR are still popular and whatnot even when they were "cancelled" back when. It has some interesting points, but as I said...it's long. On Whirr and Navigating Canceled Bands in Canon (elienis.com)

Pulled the trigger on the NIN. Why not.

This is pretty awesome: 4AD

That was probably me on The Veronicas. They’re trying to crack into the U.S. market a bit more nowadays. The free shipping is cool & they only did two variants in their webstore. What’s funny they was pointed is that Billie’s last album had 8 variants. But I get what she’s saying about the excessiveness by other major artists.

Billie ain’t wrong… https://www.vulture.com/article/billie-eilish-vinyl-wasteful.html

Got the Ozean record in today from Numero. Lovely & beautiful are the best words to describe.

Yeah...I took another listen...this time watching the video...it's pretty bad.

I want to like the new Camila Cabello song but something feels off & maybe a bit generic about it. It doesn’t help that they chorus sounds silly in its repetitiveness.

It’ll never happen. Cuz we all know that TOOL loooooooves to fuck with their fans.
