XO is sold out. I guess they were 500 only worldwide. Glad I got my order in time.

Rough Trade just put their pre-order up!

Looks like Rough Trade is doing the Elastica press, no numbers though.

Mentioned it a few pages back, but it's 1000.

There are rumors that they are getting back together, so hopefully it's a sizable run. 

Limited to 1000.

From Rough Trade's instagram...

"We are excited to announce the reissue of Elastica's debut album 'Elastica' which came out in March 1995 and went straight to number 1. The album will be released on limited edition vinyl on 22nd April 2017 as part of UK and Ireland @recordstoreday. The special vinyl album package will include a fanzine and flexi disc, which will feature the track “In The City” from their John Peel session."

Good or bad it was a right royal pain in the arse to order from this side of the Atlantic. The United Kingdom isn't an option for Rough Trade US and annoyingly it doesn't show up on Rough Trade UK unless I missed it or there is another different version going to show up here some time soon.

Luckily my parents live in the US so I got it shipped there but I had to put my billing address as The Isle Of Man just to get a UK format address and unless they've done a runner as well the Isle Of Man was still part of the Empire last time I checked.

All done on my phone and a lot of fun on the way into London on the train this morning with signal dropouts etc. So after all that I expect the album will be utter cack when I finally do get it but thanks to @jackshidt for posting

This what you looking for?

Just a curiosity question as a person who has only gotten in to Lush more recently.  I was browsing around Discogs and someone was complaining that Gala was only in a regular sleeve now.  What was the original release in? 

The original had artwork that was printed on the inside. It also had two inner sleeves.

Has anyone who purchased their copy through Rough Trade received theirs yet, and if so can confirm what pressing they received?

 

 

 

The one with the sticker over the barcode. Purchased instore.

Saw them today. Didn't purchase them though. The sleeve repro of 'Different Class' looked like a bad scan. Same with 'His n' Hers'.

I've been to Rough Trade East in London in november (business trip) but only for shopping, so I have no idea how shows there looks like, do they have a separate space for shows? I've been to Rough Trade in NYC 2 years ago and they had a second room, the size of the whole store or even bigger. so when the show was about to begin huge doors opened and they let people in, the venue was really great.

It's in the store itself. There's a stage toward the back and they just move the cd racks around to create a large enough space.

Rough Trade offers special bundles including grey vinyl & wristband for the in-store show on the date of the album release, it's a ca. 1500km from where I live but i'm considering attending - anyone here seen them perform live? are their shows worth such a travel?

If you've never been to a Rough Trade (London) instore before, expect around a 40 minute set. It's by no means a complete show, but they are intimate and the bands usually stick around to sign stuff afterwards. 

Yep. I was kinda surprised about that. Especially at that stupid price. 

Nice catch. Ordered.

Or if you're in London, you can order it from Sister Ray and get a free ticket to an album release gig at the 100 Club on Jan 26th,

So I've never really listened to Lush. Where's a good place to start with them?

Start at the start. The early ep comp 'Gala' has a lot of my favourite tracks of theirs. 

Will be picking up all of these except Siren's Call. i already have an OG press of that. hopefully Singles will have the actual single version of "Run 2" instead of the album version of "Run" from Technique that's always included in all of the previous best of comps.

According to the tracklist below it's the Run 2 7" Remix Edit.

Not familiar with The Modern Lovers either... anyone got a song recommendation from that album?

The entire record is a classic, but if you gotta start somewhere, "Roadrunner", I guess. 

Pretty good one:

Also a Fall Out Boy exclusive coming soon.

Kinda knew they'd get around to this one eventually. They're starting to drag their feet on the Stooges though...

Link to White Vinyl -- http://www.roughtrade.com/albums/94678

Tidy queue of about 40 odd at the HMV in Oxford St. They had about 20 copies of the more limited stuff, which they idiotically put on little stands right in front of the escalator as you stepped off, so unsurprisingly it turned into a chaotic pile-up and Morrissey grab fest. 

Now that HMV have voiced they're back in with vinyl again, I wonder if these limited colour pressings will be something they'll do more often a la Newbury Comics?

I don't know if it's me, but that link just shows a bunch of marked down cds. 

Here's the list of limited vinyl below taken from here. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. Totally missed any mention of this.

Royal Blood - 'Royal Blood' (1000 HMV Exclusive Reverse Sleeve)
Paul Simon - 'Graceland' (500 HMV Exclusive Maroon Vinyl)
Morrissey - 'Viva Hate' (500 HMV Exclusive Gold Vinyl)
Morrissey - 'Your Arsenal' (500 HMV Exclusive Gold Vinyl)
Morrissey - 'Vauxhall & I' (500 HMV Exclusive Gold Vinyl)
Joni Mitchell - 'Blue' (500 HMV Exclusive Blue Vinyl)
Black Sabbath - 'Black Sabbath' (500 HMV Exclusive Coloured Vinyl)
Black Sabbath - 'Paranoid' (500 HMV Exclusive Coloured Vinyl)
Black Sabbath - 'Master Of Reality' (500 HMV Exclusive Coloured Vinyl)
Nirvana - 'Nevermind' (2000 HMV Exclusive Vinyl)
Velvet Underground - 'Velvet Underground & Nico' (1000 HMV Exclusive Vinyl)
The Charlatans - 'Melting Pot' (500 HMV Exclusive Vinyl)
Fall Out Boy - 'American Beauty/American Psycho' (500 HMV Exclusive Vinyl)
Blade Runner OST (500 HMV Exclusive Red Vinyl)

they're never gonna do the deluxe edition of Terror Twilight, are they? 

Nope. Not enough extra/unreleased material to warrant it. 

I totally forgot they just stopped after Brighten the Corners...weird. TT is seriously underrated. 

I think it's rated as well as it's ever gonna get. That album still leaves a bad taste. Godrich, being the It Producer of the Day, sucked the fun out of that record and treated the rest of the band like nobodies.  

This new release seems pretty superfluous apart from those who need to have certain things on vinyl. Kinda disappointing really.
