It has both NYC Cops AND When It Started, which I think is a first. Usually it's one or the other.

Fingers crossed for a reissue of Live 1998.

Apparently they've shipped out half of the orders. The other half should be shipping by mid-February. Phil's working with the people at The Business record store in Anacortes to get these shipped. FWIW I live in Los Angeles and mine arrived in perfect condition. Oh, and apparently all box sets will include a complete copy of Early Tapes after all, in case anyone here was one of the last to order.

Sold out on Bandcamp, 20 left on the website.

I think this is the full article: https://dnyuz.com/2021/09/20/the-18-year-wait-for-new-wrens-music-is-over-sort-of/ Basically Whelan got tired of waiting on Bissell to finish the new Wrens album so he's releasing the 5 songs he wrote for the album plus more on his own as Aeon Station. Not sure why I wasn't expecting much from this album, but this song is fucking good.

Would love to see those first two Koufax records reissued but I can't imagine there's much demand compared to other albums in the Vagrant catalog.

"Thank you for your patience throughout the Mars Volta issues. We have heard back from the pressing plant and have two options for people who received a replacement that did not solve the issue. We will be receiving a repressing of the record, estimated to be around October, and will send out a copy to everyone who experienced the issue when we get them! In addition to this, I can offer one of the following two options while you wait for the repressing. I can either refund the cost of the Mars Volta record back to your card, or ship out one of the records on the list below now! Please let me know which option you would prefer and if you have any questions!" You'll need to contact them to request a replacement.

Are they really only selling these through the EU store?

But their design studio worked on it for the past year!

Better get two so my kids won't have to fight over "The Chuck" when I die.

I've seen a couple listings for a stand-alone of Repetition coming out on that same day, but so far nothing on Numero's website. https://www.roughtrade.com/us/unwound/repetition
