The packaging looks to be in line with other special editions so maybe it’s just that there is no regular edition (at least not available through Liz for now).

 

edit: looking at the page source the qty available is or was ~273 and the current limit is 27. 

Kranky just posted this about 15 mins ago, new project of Liz Harris / Grouper. I haven’t listened yet but ordered immediately

Anyone remember Harlem? Their album Hippies is fantastic and I had no idea they’d gotten back together / are releasing a new record next week.

 

I couldn’t find too much info online but the vinyl is available on bandcamp with about 45 copies remaining https://harlemwhateverr.bandcamp.com/releases

Glad it’s a 2LP, I loved Plum but it felt a little short.

 

The band announcement hints at something special for pre-orders. Probably worth noting though that the bonus for Perfume was just a postcard with a link to some extra tracks. 

I’m gonna hold off for now and see if I can throw this in with the new Murlocs or Traffik Island. 

Available from ATO at 5PM eastern, 2500 copies of the “ATO pressing” with 750 available online. 

Variant looks great.

 

I’m sure with such a small pressing it’ll be tough to come by but if anyone grabbed an extra or decides to part with a copy I’m definitely interested.

Should be available on Flightless at 9AM AEDT on Friday. The Gizz post shows black wax, I wonder if the midnight sale is the same variant or something special / worth lining up for.

Wasn’t sure if it was worth creating a separate thread but some records signed by Jeff are available online

New uncle Murl single today and a US tour supposedly kicking off in LA in April.

One of my partner’s most listened to albums but we don’t have it on vinyl. Would love to surprise her for her birthday at the end of the month if anyone is willing to part with a copy! 

Took a couple of mins for me to get through but I think it’ll be fine.

Grabbed this, despite the shipping cost. Love Noah

Down to 29 copies already, I imagine it’ll be an easy grab from other retailers but I’m always happy to have an excuse to support AK

This is a bummer, love all of Deerhunter’s discog but those records / shows with Josh were something special.

I recall that last Traditional Fools release was red or yellow too.

I’ve seen a few people receive all 5 but none of the bundles yet... could be they’re waiting on slipmats still?

 

edit: Slipmats are just in according to the Flightless instagram. Hope those bundles start going out ASAP!

^ slipmat also? Haven’t seen any of those arrive yet! 

I think it still looks kind of cool, but was surprised they didn’t go with a translucent yellow.

I’m apprehensive too as there have been a few records that have had cooler variants the second go around from Flightless (Nonagon and FMB come to mind). I can’t trust that I won’t blow more money on these records before year’s end.

Same issue here 

I don’t think anyone knows for certain what the ATO pressings will be and there isn’t likely to be an announcement until after the Flightless drop.

 

The facts as they stand:

- Flightless will carry the /5000 variants, dropping at 9AM AEST

- There are smaller pressings of each record (/1000 for WB, 2000 for the rest). Part of me wouldn’t be surprised if these appeared on the Flightless website as well (either as the /5000 variants sell out or as a wildcard 2nd variant which would no doubt cause chaos). Alternatively these may be ATO editions to be announced later.

- There is also a “Promo” pressing of /10, presumably tests although they could be distributed to ATO for giveaways as they’ve done this in the past

- Finally there is a much larger pressing of 7500 for each release. My guess is either black or a retail variant for these ones.

 

Good luck all!

I did, out of town though so I haven’t had a chance to download just yet.

 

11 copies left of the cheese!

I coulda sworn I read somewhere someone spoke to Amyl and they said they didn’t have an album ready yet... who knows though. Orb test pressings are already in according to Flightless so I’m sure that isn’t too far off along with Gizz reissues. 

 

As far as AFL goes I’m more of a Swans guy, will be curious to see how the two teams match up!
