Hovvdy - True Love pre-order live
serotonein replied to MacDonals's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Eh, ok. I have no interest in lumping all the reviewers together especially given what's happened to the site this year. -
Hovvdy - True Love pre-order live
serotonein replied to MacDonals's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I know they don't get a ton of hype/coverage compared to other artists, but pre-orders went up at the end of January Agreed it's a fantastic album (and 8.3 is still quite good 😀) -
Different sort of bankruptcy as they immediately went into receivership and all of their assets are under the control of Lighthouse (https://lighthousemanagement.com/). Nobody knows what Lighthouse intends to do, but liquidation/auction of what they have is likely. Part of the mess is that it's still difficult to prove which records were actually pressed and who has them. Of the records that were pressed, Bandbox never paid the pressing plants for some, so those are still owned by the plants and not with Lighthouse. Customers probably have a better shot at those records than getting anything from Lighthouse, records or refunds, because we're the lowest priority of creditors.

I'm not surprised at all - it was just 300 pressed in 2017 but that still reduces how many may want to buy it now. Also, more importantly, $27 for a 3-song 12" is ridiculous.

new Echo Ladies https://echoladies.bandcamp.com/album/lilies-lp https://www.ramalama.se/store/echo-ladies-lilies-12 (roughly $34 shipped to US after conversion)

And someone asked on IG and he said "there are no current plans" for the albums to be pressed individually. It could happen eventually but don't plan on it.

Saw it confirmed on his IG - this is the only purchase option, no US seller So, it's $500 for the box set + $100 shipping Love his work, want these albums on vinyl, but no. That's obscene for just 7 albums.

The Official 'Vinyl Me, Please' thread.
serotonein replied to Deoxitizer's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Sort of - there is a window for swapping that month's record before the selection is locked, and you can see on the site all the other records they've made available to choose from for that month. Anything in the store that is still up for pre-order is not available for swapping, and it's always a guessing game if/when certain store exclusives will be added to the swaps availability. You can also swap for store credit if there's nothing in the swap selections you want. I don't spend much time on Reddit, but there's a user who kindly highlights every month the 'best' records for swapping, since many of them are less expensive to just purchase separately. -
I bought it on Bandcamp, too; looks like the latest shipping estimate is late January

To absolutely nobody's surprise, they were unprepared for the amount of interest, and didn't have enough to go around. My shop was allocated only one (and I was #2 to order it; bought the book alone). I suspect that's what happened to most. Pre-orders are open now for a 2nd press in Feb, but no word on how many. https://www.previewsworld.com/Catalog/AUG218745- 123 replies

Quiet Panic sent out an update through Bandcamp on Thursday - "Just to keep everyone in the loop, we've experienced some production delays with both the Tennis System & Slow Crush LPs. We hope to have them out to you soon, but it looks like it will be at least a few more weeks, if not longer. We apologize for the delay and will let you know as soon as we have a firm date for shipping." (and I keep a spreadsheet for pre-orders, too, including a column for street date and a column for notes like this)

The much bigger worry is what Diamond will do to the records while getting them to the shops 😬- 123 replies

I emailed mine about it yesterday & the owner wrote back a couple hours ago to say I was good to go. I'll double-check when I go in tomorrow to pick up this week's books.- 123 replies

That's not entirely true - now that the album is released, I'm able to listen to the entire album there

Sleater Kinney - Path of Wellness (6/11)
serotonein replied to timsimmons's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I contacted RT about the same last week and got back a rather nonsensical reply - "We've been experiencing ongoing shipping issues this year, my sincere apologies that these problems have affected your order. Sometimes USPS doesn't scan their items at every stop so keep an eye on the tracking information. If you do not receive your record one month after the initial shipment date, please reach back out. My apologies again and thank you for your patience." My guess is that none of the S-K records have actually shipped yet but between getting the new shop open and then RSD, they're overwhelmed. I was expecting to hear back that they were in the same situation as just about every other artist/label/shop and hadn't received the records yet due to the worldwide plant backup. -

PO: Soft Kill - Dead Kids, R.I.P. City (11.20.20)
serotonein replied to BeerMonger's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
They sent out an update back on the 9th (and at https://softkillsoftkill.bigcartel.com/preorder-info). TLDR version - the pressing plant is working at half-capacity, and they pre-printed everyone's label for when they do receive the records
