This showed up on my release radar on Spotify with today's date. No idea why.

I think they reuploaded the entire album with one new track. Very strange to me.

EDIT: The new track "Must Be Nice" is very solid though.

Really like the new track. PO'd the /250.

Per Saul Williams' IG...The Inevitable Rise And Liberation Of Niggy Tardust is getting reissued on 7/21 & available at indie shops. Also along with his Self-Titled (first time on vinyl) and Martyr Loser King. 

I have a copy of Tardust from RSD a handful of years ago but would definitely like to pick up the self-titled. Thanks for the heads up.

Super excited for this.

New song is great, instant PO.

This is exactly what I'd hoped for. Fantastic. Can't wait for more.

New tracks are very solid, a welcomed surprise.

The Scowl EP goes hard. I like this direction for them, fresher than the LP in my opinion.

The GUMM and Buggin singles are great. I'm looking forward to seeing Buggin again at Tied Down this June now that they have more material.

Really enjoyed this one. Glad it lived up to the hype.

Yeah, I received mine a couple months back. 

A couple months back?! How long did this end up getting delayed?

Grabbed the /250 BBB variant as well.

New Never Ending Game album up for preorder tomorrow at noon on triple b. 

New tracks are fantastic. Can't wait for this one.

Want to buy but crazy price tag. Looking forward to the album though.

Finally listened to these tracks. It's a snoozer for me. Songwriting seems solid, but the delivery misses. Would've liked to hear these in their normal style. Still looking forward to their next LP.

just a bunch of boring songs released digitally:

Based on their post, it seems like they have more stuff written but haven't had the extended time to record it yet. Looking forward to checking this EP out.

I will be on the lookout for that Macho Man Randy Savage LP though.

At a very early stage they were planning on it but decided to go a different direction. Unshackled. They didn't actually make these songs as American Football and change the name last minute haha Scott just didn't explain it fully.

It's explained more in depth here: https://uproxx.com/indie/lies-interview-mike-kinsella-nate-american-football/

Right on, appreciate the explanation and link.

this was supposed to be American Football LP4!

No kidding?

Despite this being great so far, I'm glad this wasn't AF LP4. It definitely deserves to be its own project.

Instant PO for me. Went with the PV Early Bird.

This song is solid, but the single from late last year didn't do much for me. After how disappointed I was by the last record, I'm gonna hold off on this for now.

With that being said, it sounds like they had more negative feelings towards their later material which was the main reason they took a hiatus. Can't imagine this next record will be a Get Hurt 2 in that case.

Not to be a downer, but I saw them in Detroit late last year and they played 7 or 8 Get Hurt songs. It was disappointing to say the least. I'm not a hater of that album, but it's definitely their worst. They looked like they were enjoying themselves though, and this interview with Matt is promising. Definitely has me even more excited for the new record.

I sold some records on WhatNot over the summer. It's really fun, but nearly everything I sold was less than what I had it listed for on Discogs/what the median price was on Discogs. It's very hit or miss though. It's all about how many people are in the room and what the seller starts the record at. If there's a lot of people bidding, prices can go way up. If there's no one bidding, then it can be hard to move a record. Some sellers also just expect ridiculous prices for their records.

In a lot of ways, it reminds me of crate digging in some aspects. You gotta find the right room, with not too many people, with the right seller, who is starting records at a good price, and has something you want. Otherwise, you can spend a lot of time watching and not getting anything.

It's a cool app though. I enjoy it quite a bit and I've snagged some good deals.

Excellent news

I'll wait for the inevitable double LP re-release with 3-4 bonus tracks that will likely come out next summer.

This isn't coming out on Hopeless, but I thought the exact same thing, hahahahaha.
