DEAR NIN.COM VINYL CUSTOMER, TWO APOLOGIES, A STATEMENT, AND A QUESTION. APOLOGY 1: FIRST, AS SOME OF YOU MAY KNOW WE ARE CHANGING OUR FULFILLMENT PARTNER. I HAVE NOT BEEN HAPPY WITH FIREBRAND FOR A VARIETY OF REASONS AND WE ARE NOW PARTNERING WITH SANDBAG. I’M SORRY IT’S TAKEN AS LONG AS IT HAS TO MAKE THIS CHANGE, AND I APOLOGIZE FOR ANY AGGRAVATION YOU MAY HAVE EXPERIENCED ON THIS FRONT. YOUR SUPPORT IS VERY MUCH APPRECIATED AND I ASSURE YOU THERE’S BEEN AN EXTRAORDINARY AMOUNT OF SCREAMING DONE ON MY END. YOU DESERVE BETTER. APOLOGY 2: THE VINYL RELEASES FOR DEVIATIONS, NOT THE ACTUAL EVENTS AND THE REISSUES HAVE BEEN DELAYED AS MANY OF YOU ARE AWARE. THE BLAME FOR THIS LIES WITH ME AND MY TEAM. WE RAN INTO A VARIETY OF QUALITY CONTROL ISSUES WITH THE AUDIO AND VARIOUS ASPECTS OF THE ARTWORK, THEN WE GOT OBSESSIVE ABOUT GETTING IT RIGHT. AT SOME POINT THESE FUCKUPS STARTED TO ADD UP TO A SUBSTANTIAL DELAY THAT I WASN’T FULLY AWARE OF UNTIL RECENTLY. AGAIN, I’M SORRY FOR THE DELAY HERE BUT THE INTENTION HAS BEEN TO GET THIS UNCOMPROMISINGLY RIGHT. HERE’S THE UPDATED, ACCURATE (BARRING AN ACT OF GOD) TIMELINE FOR SHIPPING: * DEVIATIONS WILL SHIP AT THE END OF JUNE * ALL OTHER TITLES WILL SHIP AT THE BEGINNING OF AUGUST IF YOU HAVE ORDERED ANY OF THESE TITLES, YOU WILL RECEIVE AN EMAIL WHEN YOUR ORDER HAS SHIPPED. IF YOU WOULD LIKE A COMPLETE REFUND (KEEPING THE DIGITAL FILES), WE GET IT - CLICK HERE IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT YOUR ORDER, OR WOULD LIKE TO CONTACT SANDBAG CUSTOMER SERVICE – CLICK HERE ADDITIONALLY, EVERYONE WITH AN OUTSTANDING VINYL ORDER WILL RECEIVE A DISCOUNT CODE FOR 20% OFF YOUR NEXT PURCHASE. THIS CODE IS GOOD FOR ONE USE AND UNIQUE TO YOU. YOU WILL RECEIVE YOUR CODE VIA EMAIL IN THE NEXT 24 HOURS. STATEMENT: WE ARE TAKING ALL MEASURES AVAILABLE TO MAKE SURE ANY PREORDERS FROM NIN.COM ARRIVE IN YOUR HANDS BEFORE THEY ARE AVAILABLE ANYWHERE ELSE. I KNOW HOW FRUSTRATING IT IS WHEN THIS ISN’T THE CASE (LIKE WHAT JUST HAPPENED WITH BEFORE THE FLOOD). I ASSUMED WE ALREADY HAD THIS PRACTICE IN PLACE, I WAS INCORRECT. QUESTION: FINALLY, DID YOU KNOW THERE’S A NEW TOP-SECRET NINE INCH NAILS EP THAT WILL BE RELEASED BEFORE THE FIRST SHOWS WE DO THIS SUMMER? DID YOU KNOW NOT THE ACTUAL EVENTSWAS THE FIRST PART OF A TRILOGY OF RELATED EPS THAT WILL BE RELEASED ABOUT 6-8 MONTHS APART? NOW YOU DO. MORE INFORMATION ON THIS SHORTLY… THANK YOU. TRENT

Picked up my rainbow splatter last night at their listening party. It was $20 so if you see them on tour it should be the same. They had a ton but no idea on the actual number pressed. So good!!!

POd the blue. This is great and the price and limit of 1 per person is on point. That gospel we can pray for.

I was beyond happy that the bonus tracks are separate. It's a homage to the original, which I have, and looks super cool. If practicality was in mind why does the Cs fold out into a cross with lyrics instead of something cheaper? I can wait wait forever for Broken and Fragile, which I PO'd, because I've wanted them Since I got into vinyl and $80 shipped is nothing compared to the bay prices. Mayve, maybe just once. I get what's coming to me.

@highfives is this from the NIN store or somewhere else? Also why would Broken not be available?

The email they sent said $35. The "normal version" looks way way better than the green. I hope this is the trend for Mondo for future releases. Make the best looking version the most available and if people need their limited kick then they get something bland but oh so rare. I had a hard time when Phantasm first dropped and the black/red "blood" swirl was limited to 1000 while the evil silver "ball" version was limited to 500. I had to think before I pulled the trigger, the collector rare stuff vs what looks best. SO happy I went with the red/black instead of bland silver. Way to go Mondo for appealing to everyone's taste.

Armageddon version matches artwork so perfectly!

Just showed up and am the first and only one in line at my local.

A must have!

I'm only going after Coheed. My local's got one copy and I plan on getting it! Wouldn't bother for anything else and this is my first rsd outing to any record store.

Be more like this guy

Got mine in today. Not a gatefold FYI. Hard to take a picture of my copy maybe the lighting. Cant wait to spin this!

I picked up an orange copy last year off eBay. It was posted for $100 or make an offer and I offered $40 not thinking I would get it but did. Pristine copy buy shipped from Japan. Good luck their out there.

Just got shipping notice from Brannon's site!! So excited for this one.

Yes! Love these guys!!! the Armageddon Lore sunburst varient came out great! Looking forward to this.

It's about time!!!! Now can we get some SSTB?!

Ordered from KRM and my Baizley showed up today. Sounds incredible, looks even better.

@Metal Mike Bags Shmags. I released a tape back in 2007 of lofi Islamic calls to prayer from my rooftop in Amman Jordan. This Dekka bullshit copied my idea!!! My tape was named "A call to prayer" and was limited to 23 copies so I am clearly more pretentious with my cultural appropriation than those asshats.

In for the /150 so make that 14 copies left.

I did the same, was torn between the Hooper and Baizley but had to go to KR cuz that Baizley is so original.

I'm going to the Oct 22nd show in providence. Been holding off getting a copy in hope that there's a tour edition. I'll grab an extra If it exists.

My clear came with these cool notes of yellow
