  1. I mean...it's a repress of an album that's been long out of print in beautiful packaging. For 23-27 a month I don't know if it would be that profitable for them to get the record and an EP.

     

     

    Exactly. Plus there's existing plates for the Friend and For repress, they'd have to make a new one for an EP

     

    Fair enough.  I still feel they need to do more with their releases to get me on board.  I like the direction they seem to be going with artist selections, just not impressed with the contents of the releases.  It's targeted to the youthful hipnation.  I'd gladly pay upfor a more interesting product, especially when they are doing reissues of OOP gems.  
     
    Also, Menomena should have piloted this reissue.  It's a crime to give such a great record a mediocre release.  Glad more people get to spin it now though.
  2. I never understood why they never released a 10" or 12" version of Wet and Rusting?  

     

    When I first read about this VMP listing I kinda figured that would be the deal...the first (full) issue of the EP with the LP.  Instead they send you a goodamn cover art print of a record that's not included in the release?!  Just another reason I am thus far disappointed with this club.

  3. Got my copy of Fear Fun replaced.  Sounds much cleaner!

     

    Now on to ordering this one.  I have some Best Buy rewards to use.  I wonder if the $39.99 version listed on there is the limited edition.  It doesn't really give any info.

     

    That's rad you got a replacement.  How'd you pull that off?

     

    As for the Best Buy copies it's gotta be the limited edition, the regular release is listed at $18 in the subpop shop

  4. So what's going on with these for real? I noticed that the website now lists the album as "pre-order possible". So for those of us that put an order through on the first day, do you think we will be okay?

     

    Not sure, I imagine the pre-order is due to them overselling (as mentioned before they likely keep re-pressing as long as they are selling).

     

    I was a little late to this thread as I haven't visited here in a while, but I placed an order moments ago and got a confirmation notice already.

     

    I wouldn't' be surprised if the earlier orders like yours are already sent out, or just about to be.

  5. I was super disappointed that they didn't have the LP for sale at the show last weekend.  I guess I missed something along the way cause last I read they were ready to go for the tour.  

     

    The merch girl was goddamn clueless too, I pointed out that they forgot to include Toronto on the tour poster and she's like "O.M.G. I, like, didn't even notice LOLLLLLL"

     

    At least the show was bananas.  

     

    This album is made to be heard live, puts the record to shame

  6. I think the label mix ups before Antemasque coming out had a lot to do with the lack of recent ORL vinyl releases.  I believe they started Nadie to get away from the now corporate controlled RLP moniker (which had all the monies to release all those records the past 7 years).  

     

    That and the fact that O + C are friends again and reigniting their love of playing live together means he's distracted again.  I read that Bosnian Rainbows LP2 would come out after the Antemasque LP1 run, then Antemasque LP2 would come after BRLP2, but by then we all know Omar will find something else to distract us with, like....

     

    Omar said the other day on Triple J that they haven't given up hope on resuscitating the Volta for more releases down the line.  This would also likely mean that Jon Theodore would return on drums considering Cedric has professed his regret for ever firing him and his admiration of Jon's contribution to the true Volta sound.  I don't care about legacy, they ruined that with Noctourniquet...I want this.
