I found a copy of this last week on clearance at Amoeba Hollywood for $7.99

That's funny, I totally forgot about Chrome. But I remembered they'd released something else that I didn't like, that didn't really sound like Deep Fantasy, so I was pleasantly surprised by the new track.

Pre-order link: http://surfing.100percentelectronica.com 1st pressing of 500 on black. Digital comes out July 13, vinyl ships "around mid-August."

Anyone spin this yet? Anxiously awaiting my copy.

Norman Records has the Domino colored vinyl version and pretty cheap U.S. shipping. Comes out to ~$40. https://www.normanrecords.com/records/170359-stephen-malkmus-the-jicks-sparkle-hard

saw on the band's Instagram that the limited edition will be on "cream" colored vinyl

La Luz rules. Shana Cleveland's solo stuff, too. So happy to have them in LA now.

also holy shit if this is true, i'm in heaven: "Says Gar Wood, 'There're already 2 more records written and recorded. We wanted to come out with this one using the more mainstream sounding stuff to give people a chance to catch up."

god bless the swami and long live the hot snakes

Martin Shkreli's conviction today gives me hope that Nick Alt will end up behind bars at some point

I've found that, for the purposes of anyone not in Massachusetts, the entire state is Boston. Foxboro? Boston! Worcester? Boston! I thought I was finished with The Smiths when I bought that enormous box set on Popmarket a few years back, but I guess they'll be getting more of my $$.
