Several users on the Needles and Grooves forum have the vinyl flat and have had great success, I believe there is a dedicated thread for it over on that forum. Probably lots of tips and advice.

Cool. Do they release web store titles at a specific day and time, or is it all random?

When is the Blade Runner 2049 extras supposed to go online?

Plaidroom Records has these up now. The limited color vinyl is the cheapest you'll find them online at Plaidroom. About $10 - $12 cheaper than Bullmoose or Temporary Residence.

What genres, artists, record label, etc? Do you have any jazz LPs on Blue Note, Prestige, or the Impulse labels? Can you share the discos list?

Posting for the star

Email graveface. They will take care of you with a replacement, no questions asked. Excellent label

But will it be pressed off-center like all the other copies of this album?

Nice Doug find. I found a sealed copy of it at Amoeba years ago, but it wasn't 35 cents.

I feel very fortunate to have been able to see ASC when they were touring LLO and earlier material. Never forget hearing Steps and Numbers live in Madison WI along the lake on a summer night. Outdoor shows are zee best.

Indie Only Gold Vinyl up at Bullmoose https://www.bullmoose.com/p/30509441/russian-circles-blood-year-gold-vinyl-indie-only-color-vinyl

In for this.

Yeah, it's called the Pay It Forward Thread. I'll admit, it's pretty awesome. I've nabbed so many good albums from that thread: Sleep - The Scientist Flying Lotus Gorillaz Demon Days Bunch of Jazz, Monk, Miles The National Boxer, etc. I've probably grabbed 25 LPs from that thread. People are very generous over there. I've also given away 25 or 30 LPs that I had duplicates of or didn't listen to anymore. Works out for everyone. One big vinyl record trading session.

It probably has to do more with the musical tastes of the forum members then the members themselves. For me, VC is more punk, pop punk, emo, hardcore, indie, and other subgenres of rock. The SH forums are a good resource, but most topics relate to older artists, class rock, jazz, blues, etc. VMP was sort of the middle ground. Conversations about a little of each genre. Granted, I do visit all three forums to find information. This whole vinyl forum "clique" attitude is a bit ridiculous. I also much preferred the VMP forum's user interface. It was so simple to upload photos, which served to enhance a lot of conversations and threads. Whereas, VC requires you to use a third party website (e.g., Photobucket) then hyperlink to that within the forum to get a photo up. Not sure if that has since changed, but it was/is annoying and outdated

Mac's novelty has worn off for me. All these slow songs are just so boring. He isn't an amazing songwriter, singer, or even a very talented instrumentalist. It'd be one thing if he could write some intricate layered guitar parts, or at least a technical piano/keyboard section, but it's all so remedial and he just makes it weird by pitch shifting the tape he records on. I dont know. I own all of his other material and am not eager to buy this latest release.
