Ordered the Orange. Hopefully the Rescue will get pressed at some point. 

The Rescue was self-released by the band (500 pressed) but I would love a repress because they are impossible to find. 

/500 sold out now too

1100 records in 40 minutes...that’s impressive.

Count me in if there’s a group buy.

I was initially concerned about some of it NOT being from the master tape, but everyone that has it, says it sounds good.

 

I would love to see a Mo-Fi repress of “Pneumonia.” 

I would like to see Faithless Street and Rural Free Delivery actually on vinyl for the first time.

No I’m not familiar with that, is it different from USPS’ tracking log?

Be as detailed as you can. You should get either an email/call within 24hrs from your local branch looking into it with more info than what tracking provides. Anytime I’ve done this, I usually receive package within a few days—could be coincidental but my packages seem to start moving again.

Yeah, I’m still waiting on the one I mentioned from 5/23, no updates in a week. Just sitting in a sort facility probably getting warped af. 

Have you tried the “Where Is My Package?” trace feature?

Here's the shitshow I've been watching.  I'm in Grand Rapids.  I got a notification around the 24th/25 of May that it was in GR and set to be delivered.  Then nothing until June 4 when it arrived in Chicago(?)  Who knows where it is now.  My mom (also in GR) had a package go to GR --> Lansing  ---> Zeeland ----> Traverse City(?)  -->  GR.

Wow that got put in a wrong bin I’m assuming. Did you try to have a trace put on it?

I’ve probably shipped out 20 or so media mail packages in the last two months. Pretty much every single one took at least a week to get from the initial scan (pickup from my building’s mailroom) to the Chicago sorting facility. I’d say media mail is taking 3-4 weeks since March. Some weird scans too. But everything has arrived. Some post offices are running with skeleton crews still. And media mail is definitely lowest priority. We’ve just gotta be patient. 

I definitely understand being patient with media mail and the entire USPS being understaffed and overwhelmed.  The one I’m currently waiting on is Priority Mail so it should theoretically arrive much quicker than media but who knows at this point. As long as it arrives safely, that’s all that matters in the grand scheme.

So how long have your records been delayed in Chicago now?

My current one sat in Jersey for a week (surprised it wasn’t longer) and just popped up in Chicago today. I live close to Detroit so I’m a little surprised it didn’t go to Pittsburgh like mine normally do from the east coast.

Nevermind, I realize what I typed could be very confusing: E(ccentric) P(op) Patreon.

Ahh. Thanks for clarifying. 
 

Red sold out! I’d act fast to grab the black if you are on the fence.

Was able to grab a red comp and yellow LP. @Satan turned me onto them with all his talk about the EP Patreon, so now I can finally add them to the collection.

Was this a new EP?

Snagged a red!

This band can do no wrong.

For anyone that had their record stuck in Jersey City, how long was it stuck “in transit” until it got to you?

Mine is going on 9 days now but I’m in no rush. It is even Priority so I can’t imagine the wait on Media Mail. 

Had one stuck in Pittsburgh for a week and it’s finally in my state.

Update* Both just got delivered today.
Hope things continue to start turning around for USPS and everyone gets their packages.

Gold (/100) is sold out.

This is awesome albeit the circumstances. 

Still holding out hope She Looks So Good In Red will be pressed to vinyl one day. Album still rips after 18 years.

I wouldn’t sleep on this if you were holding out.

Orange is no longer listed  (saw sold out at one point) and I think only a few copies of blue remain.

The Attic in Millvale is probably the best record store in the area, and I've always had good experiences doing Dave's Music Mine for RSD (they post their list in advance on FB too).

Awesome, thank you! 

Any recommendations on time to get there for line? 

Can anyone recommend what shop(s) to visit in Pittsburgh for RSD? Best time to get in line (looking to be one of the first 30 or so)?

Normally, I’d be in Detroit but I have a family reunion this year.

Thanks in advance to anyone who replies!

Only records I’m looking to get are the Alice Clark LP and the Pelican 7”. Anyone willing to help with those would be greatly appreciated if I can’t find them this year.

Looking for someone to grab me those tour pressings, they aren't coming anywhere near me, any help would be appreciated 

Me too please, after CatsNJazz is helped out.

I just called to exile on main st (matt talbott store) and got a copy with the jay ryan print (65 usd shipped on paypal) and in a few minutes they send me a tracking number to my email. If anyone missed a copy today, you should try this!

They are sold out but should be getting more in a week per dude I talked to on phone. So if you can’t get directly from Matt, try here later.

Pentimento test press gone

All still there as of 12:46

Well that went from happy, to disappoint, to being beyond ecstatic .

Had both the 7” and WYAINE at 12 and went through checkout then both were sold out. Tried again and got WYAINE about 1 min later. Just kept trying for the 7” for about 5 minutes because I figured some people had them sitting in their carts or had too many and just got one! 

Back to bed!

Fail You Again is a better album. Don't @ me.

I agree after two listens, it’s not perfect, but I still very much enjoyed it. Another song or two could have pushed this a bit farther though. “Winters of Cicada” was a great closer and “Hell in a Handbasket” (my favorite off the album and would make for a good video) is super catchy. The emphasis on more screaming in select songs from Greg, I can assume, was a welcome addition as well.
