The bottom line seems to be that Loveless and Isn’t Anything will not be sold in US record stores or US online retailers, due to rights/licensing issues. Both the standard and deluxe editions are exclusive to the UK. The band’s site seemed to have had a small amount of these available to US customers when the sale initially went live, but as of now those are sold out.

Only MBV is being sold from UK & US retailers. Would have been great to know this from the start.

I have friggin 3 copies of Loveless ordered from 3 separate international sites, in case one or more cancels. Idk who to trust!

Oh Christ. 😡 Juno cancelled mine too... And I had already cancelled my order from the band's site with the standard loveless and made another order for just mbv deluxe. That's tremendous. Just ordered from some random UK site for the standard since even that one has disappeared virtually everywhere now. Fucking hell. 

How much are we actually going to notice the sound difference between the dlx loveless and standard. Can't imagine them sounding night and day. I wanted the dlx too, but I'm not wasting money on shipping since they don't want to allow it for US sale. Stupid rights issues.

edit: I guess the 'loveless deluxe' is UK exclusive. Ended up ordering it from Juno. Got MBV deluxe from the band's site though. 

Limited Repress currently up for pre-order at her webstore... for $50.

Repress of All Bitches Die is $35, $41 after shipping in the US. Not gonna lie, I wanted ABD but that’s kinda steep.

They dropped a new Eyes Wide Shut t-shirt design today if anyone's interested.

Mine came in perfect condition. Records are slightly off center but it’s not noticeable past the first minute or so. Distressor sounds way better than my old pressing. FLY does have some pops here and there but it’s really not terrible, I’ll clean it and see if that helps.

For anyone not aware: Whirr ‘Distressor’ 10th anniversary red vinyl, and a redux of of last years album Feels Like You on white vinyl are available here

Are there any more extra variants beside Revolver Magazine and Repo Records that are not listed at Relapse website? Thank you!

all editions listed here

Fabricated Life is one of their most emotional songs imo. I get a sense of defeat, 'disappointing end of the line' type feeling with the lyrics and harmonies, I just love it so much! The whole album is truly masterful - thank god for that.

what's with the lead vocals on Monolith? Not sure who this is, and in isolation it's not bad, but it feels out of place to have a third vocalist pop up on the second track.

That’s KC, the guitarist. She does vocals on The Hammer. The vocals on that song don’t quite hit the spot for me, I think it’s just the way they’re being sung, but she’s done good on other tracks

Me too. I like this album a lot but A Fabricated Life starts the record on such a whimper and it goes on for 5 long minutes. I can't shake it and honestly skip it each time. Other than that though from a sort of fair-weather fan it is a great LP.  

The opener gets stronger for me with every listen. Definitely a dreary tune, but it's kind of like a feeling of "slow awakening" to the album, for me. They opened with it on their live stream last night and it was great! The harmonizing with Doyle was so good. Love the lyrics too. 

Man. I just wish this was a simple white pony reissue. No extra stuff to hike up the price. Ruins my wanting to buy this at all. 

My /100 pinwheel sounds flawless. I sort of expected the bag to have a ziplock seal instead of adhesive. I ended up taking the LP sleeve out and won't store it in the bag, to avoid wearing out the adhesive/possibly tearing.

Excited for the live stream tonight, and I have some of the Tired Hands x Nothing beer coming this weekend as well!

Got mine today! SO good.

They must have forgot the package, because my Criterion movies were delivered just fine today. I won’t be around tomorrow either so hopefully they leave it!
