Good to hear about packaging! The only pics I've seen made the cover photo look way over saturated. 

 

The sound is more important anyway lol, but it's still good to know it looks right.

I don't necessarily think the cover's over-saturated but I don't have my CD copy with me to compare... 

Anyway, the sound, as far as I can tell on my awful little dorm room player, is really good. Good definition but I'm not too sure on the bass. I 100% recommend as a cheap bootleg copy. 

Delivered today! The packaging is spot on. Will report on the sound in a few hours 

Well...seeing as that's a photo in a gift shop at MoMA...

The other person posting about it said that shop was just closed when he was there.

Sorry if I'm wrong in assuming that, haha. I just thought they were repressed to coincide with the exhibition similarly to the MOV Bowie represses that went alongside the Bowie V&A exhibition in 2013.

I didn't see any records for sale. Even the exhibit book wasn't available - the gift shop was closed for the opening. But I'll be heading back soon to get the book so I'll report back if I see any records.

I'm basing their availability off of this image. I could be completely wrong though.

Isn't the release date on these March 9th? 

Technically yes but, as mentioned, there are definitely copies in the gift shop of the MoMA already and people have been receiving copies of Post, Vespertine, Homogenic and Biophilia from ~20th Feb onwards from OLI. It doesn't seem like the most held-to release date.  

I believe 'Debut' is holding up a lot of orders, you'd of thought that OLI would have waited until all pressings were received and then post 'em out on one single published release date.

Debut is definitely done. There's copies at the MoMA exhibit already. The only copies that haven't been seen now are Medulla and Volta so they could possibly be the hold up. Saying that however, my order is split between Vesp, Post, Homogenic + Biophilia in one and then Debut, Volta + Medulla in another later order and neither have shipped... 

So this will be the cover on the color copies of it as well?

Pretty sure there's no colour copies of Vulnicura. Just the standard black first press...

Also, the cover that's going to be used for all physical copies of Vulnicura was posted a few hours back on Bjork's facebook. 

I just got a shipping notice for this from Hot Stuff, hoping it's decent sound Quality

Me too... in swedish... 

Any update on this? I'm crossing my fingers the bootleg sounds good.

Still waiting on it. I emailed them a few days ago and they said they expected stock the end of this week just gone but I haven't heard anything about it shipping yet. Fingers crossed it'll get dispatched sometime soon...

I did however ask around on Instagram and everyone I asked said it sounded pretty good

Pretty sure it's a staggered pressing between all the albums. I just got an email from Norman Records delaying 3 out of the 4 I ordered. It's weird though because people have already got Vesp+Homo but they're delayed so possible distribution issue instead?

Post- 30th March

Vespertine - 6th April

Homogenic - 16th March

Biophilia - 9th March

Same, lilac would be gorgeous. NYT's Jon Pareles who interviewed her said lilac and yellow were the albums themed colours on their podcast, so I hope that happens some time in the future.

 

Or at the very least a 180g pressing. It's such a great album.

Is the March pressing not 180?? 

Colour update: Biophilia is one disc orange, the other navy in solid colour blocks.

Also Homogenic + Vespertine but both of these have already been seen?

I ordered one. I'll update you guys when it comes... 

If that's the case, what's a good UK distro to get this from that won't be too pricey esp. the shipping?

The first picture (aka the UK copy) is mine. I don't think it's officially out until the 15th but I got my copy from Juno. 

Talking about differences though, it has this typo too... :

Question: Are there EU/US versions of 1989's pressing? I've seen both copies that have the 'T.S.' cover on instagram and copies that have the whole 'Taylor Swift' on...

I'm definitely wanting a complete Kate Bush set of Kate Bush re-issues. That and Hole - Live Through This 

Courtney Love's new solo single just got put on pre-order on a pink vinyl /3000 pressing.

I bit the bullet and went for Coraline. I've been dying for this soundtrack for a while and the packaging looks really well done. Fingers crossed for a variant.
