That deluxe is a bit tempting. But with CA tax, the total breaks $60 PPD. [As opposed to $26 for the standard edition.] I had to decide if the stencil, tote bag, and stickers were worth another $34. Pass for me. But I hope that it's worth it, to whoever else jumped on it.

It would appear that I get the two mixed up, I guess. I'm going to blame it on the absurdly early hour. Either way; I'm not too concerned about variants, if there are any. If you [iVWT] can indeed save us some cash on your listing of it, I'd be glad to go that route.

I was unaware. The only purchase I've made through Hydra - I believe - was for the Oceanic repress a while ago. And given the quality of the records and packaging, I felt like the price was definitely justified. But that's just me. I'll shamefully admit that I'd probably spend more than most for a WATR reissue. Especially if the packaging is above and beyond typical 2xLPs.

What makes you say that? Are Hydra Head infamously known for stiffing their customers with highly priced, sought-after reissues?

They merely said that "details" will be posted today. I wouldn't be surprised if a pre-order date was among those details.

So you're essentially saying that the band sucks because you're burnt out on seeing them, after taking the time to attend [approximately] "a million" shows? You really just said that.

Dammit, Adam. Beat me to it.

That's incredible news. Glad to see all the naysayers and "this will never happen" posts get thwarted outright. I've always wanted to own this on wax, but could never pull the trigger on eBay auctions or sale threads.

@ youspinmeround: that's what I'm saying. The listing had to come from somehwere.

Well... fingers are crossed that this does indeed happen. Someone should I'll write Hydra Head and inform them that the cat's out of the bag. Just to see if they'll crack and release some info. Couldn't hurt.

I'm confused: someone at Amazon randomly decided to be a dick and list a reissue? Even though there's no indication, anywhere, of one happening? Sounds kind of sketchy.

So is anyone actually ordering from Amazon? Or waiting for some release information, possible variants, etc. to surface?

The link works for me. But by "blue splatter", I think they mean "clear with blue splatter". And by "limited", I think they mean "/4000".

And entirely worth every penny. Back when the album was released, they were offering free shipping - worldwide - which was pretty awesome. Bam. But seriously; such an underrated group. And one of my favorite releases of 2011. Anyone who's a fan of post-rock or instrumental music should hop on it.

All this Sub Pop talk, and no love for the new Mogwai? For shame.

Really wasn't counting on scoring a Fractures when I first saw these. Was also kind of bummed when they were out of stock, 20 minutes ago. They're apparently back, though, and I'm stoked that I was able to snag one. I just hope that the order goes through successfully. Cheers for the bump and heads-up.

Yeah... the majority of people probably purchased through Cinder Block. And they obviously didn't have all 4,000 copies on hand. I guess everyone's now stuck paying reasonable shipping costs. Drats.

Similar logic on my end. I couldn't care less about how rare the variants are - I'm more about sweet looking wax. I was torn between the coke bottle, clear, and translucent gray variants. The latter two, I think, would go with the cover flawlessly. But I was compelled to go coke, for whatever reason. Probably to keep my II.OI.-coke bottle streak going. (Why yes. I'm well aware that no one cares.)

I actually just pulled the trigger on this, a moment ago. 180 gram, with some sweet packaging, and overseas shipping came out to < $28 PPD. I've paid more for far inferior x2 LP packages here in the U.S. Not bad at all - incredibly stoked for the record.

Bump for Dan. Also; I'd like to know the story behind that Jiggle.gif, if anyone knows it. I'm vaguely familiar with G4, but I'm sure there's an entertaining explanation for the pseudo-groping.

I've heard that this movie is supposed to catalyze world peace.

There's really nothing else to say.
