I was reading somewhere about some speculation that the album can be played in a loop (infinite content, if you will) and that's why the first and last song have the same name.

Holy crap. I just noticed the price. $28 USD + $12 shipping to Canada. Plus it's shipping by DHL so you'll get screwed for another $10 or so for international handling fees too. That'll come out to like $60 Canadian for a single LP. No thanks.

I'm seriously considering upping my pledge to get the 7" box set too. I was holding out to see how many songs were going to be on the album.

I guess anyone who contributed to the Kickstarter campaign got the email, but for those who didn't... The new album is a 14 song 2LP called "The Hanged Man" and will be shipping in late August or early September.

Just noticed on the Arts & Crafts website that they're now saying the coke bottle clear is /500 and exclusive to pre-order. If you're hesitating, you might want to jump on this soon. http://brokensocialscene.craft-shop.ca/brokensocialscene-hugofthunder

Definitely interested in that cassette too. I'm on the fence about the box set. It's a lot of money but my tax return will be here soon...

Ah man. I had been having regrets about not picking up that Batman box set the first time and I missed it again. Oh well.

Anybody see the Foo Fighters EP at any shops in Toronto? I'd love to get a copy.

Went to a record show today and got all of the individual remastered Clash albums for $80 CAD, no tax. My dream of getting that box set is gone but I'm not going to pay an extra $100 just for the cardboard case. Also got good deals on Beck - Guero and Jeff Buckley - You and I.

I think it might be because he feels a little lost in the group without Abraham. His turning point seemed to be when Negan told him he didn't have to be afraid anymore, so I took that to mean that he felt fearful for some reason when he was with the regular gang. Whether it's because he felt useless (his grift about being a scientist was gone) or he didn't trust Rick to protect him anymore or what. I think he sees his role in the Saviours as a fresh start and he's got some solid protection there.

I thought that was a really great episode. Not much on the scares and zombie gore, but well done overall.

How'd you like the show? Did he have vinyl copies of the 2016 series of reissues? The only one I haven't got yet is Hospital Music. I'm going to the show in Picton tomorrow night. I haven't been to an MG show in probably over 10 years but I snagged a front row centre seat for this!

Oh hey, a PO for a re-issue of Joe Strummer - Live at Acton Town Hall.

Hit the target in less than 12 hours.

Mixtape bundle is now sold out. The 7" series sounds interesting but it's $225 (!!!) and doesn't seem to come with the actual LP.

Bumping for Alec Baldwin hosting tonight!

Just got shipping notification from We Are Busy Bodies for the coloured Age of Electric album and the Limblifter bundle of s/t and Pacific Milk. Guess they're running a little ahead of schedule because I thought these were due out in mid-February. Anyone heard anything more about IME's Scenery and Fish?

I can't see Kevin O'Leary winning the Conservative leadership, let alone becoming PM. I don't see him getting any votes outside of Ontario and Alberta. Then again, stranger things have happened. Just to get slightly back on topic, it blows my mind that Trump can do what he's doing via Executive Orders or whatever. What's the point of local representatives if the President can just do what they want? I guess I just don't understand the US system.

My Amazon copy arrived this morning and it is the blue vinyl. Pretty basic packaging and no download card.

Welp, I got dinged for $15 in customs fees for the $10 flat rate shipping. On the plus side, Gremlins looks absolutely fantastic and I got the grey variant of Iron Giant.

Yep, exactly. It's because they used DHL instead of USPS. I noticed it when Fight Club went up. My Gremlins and Iron Giant were shipped under the flat $10 rate and now I'm dreading picking them up at the Post Office because of the duty fees.

There's a clear Naveed online here if anyone's interested: https://www.northernvolume.com/our-lady-peace-naveed-indie-exclusive-180g-transparent-vinyl-lp-record/ Beware that shipping between Canada and the US remains outrageous.

According to Matt Good's website, it looks like these are shipping in January 2017 now. Also, blue variant is up and there's no mention of black anymore. Maybe they're all blue? http://matthewgood.store-08.com/music/mg050025-matthew-good-band-i-miss-new-wave-beautiful-midnight-re/ Amazon has changed their release date from today to "we don't know".

I think this is an issue on PayPal's end. I did an order with Mondo today and got the same message. Others posted that they had this problem too.
