I used to but then it started feeling like too much work and it made me feel weird about why I was collecting and what I was collecting. Now I hardly ever post pictures of records on my Instagram unless it's one I'm really excited about.

I kind of have to slightly disagree with the first sentiment...I feel like emotionally this album is on par with the rest of the records just with a different emotion. Rather than exploring the emotions of anger and loss, this one feels more positive and with Blue really connects lyrically to the last two albums. This is a record that takes a few listens with headphones and the lyrics I think...
 
From what I get out of it lyrically it feels like Kyle is expressing this idea that Love comes when you least expect it and when you never think you will find it again, hence the title "wait for love." I mean this record is pretty much an emotional love letter to his kid and wife and is beautiful in every sense. I've honestly never heard a record like it before and I love how Kyle is able to capture these emotional capsules without every really telling a story. I mean some of the lines in here kind of hint at what the record is about but he has the real talent of conveying emotion with words without you really having to understand what they mean completely...which in my opinion makes this a great album. The hooks are also more subtle and after a few listens have really gotten stuck in my head and creep in out of nowhere. This is a very positive emotional record which is something that doesn't come along very often and I feel a ton of hope in it. 
 
I totally agree with the last part of your statement though. How do you constantly sing about the death of your father over and over again on stage. That would really take it out of you and at some point that energy is exhausted and you have to move on. I love this band and I don't know if we will ever get another band like them....
 
Just wanted to share my thoughts....

I thought they were just gonna ride the nostalgia train forever.... Maybe we will also get some represses..

Been waiting for this for a hot minute! 

Also spending cash to do decent sized runs of a record just to test the facility makes sense for a band that bankrupted their label building a perfect studio. 
 
Say what you will about time between albums/tours/recording/news, Kevin Shields is clearly a perfectionist and he deserves credit for putting the time and investment into MBV. 
 
 
 

Sometimes I think I've outgrown this band, but then they always put out another album that reaffirms my love for them, I hope they keep it up with this one. If I can afford the book before it sells out In definitely grabbing it.

I ordered Shinola Vol.1 in November and I still haven't received it, it was shipped on December 8th, a month ago:(

I love how Jim edited all his original posts where he was arguing that he had the inside scoop and these were originals that were found but now has completely changed the story.
 
So please tell us that inside scoop you had

Has anybody who ordered this gotten it yet? Mine supposedly shipped on the 8th but they didn't give me any tracking so I have no idea where it is

It's a close call for me but this might be my AOTY... Slowdive might be actually be better but I definitely listened to this much more. 

I think we are all way past that now..

Anyone tried to smoke the potpourri yet? Report back plz.

That album cover is terrible, not like their other albums covers were much though

Patiently waiting for all cancelled orders to get put up so I don't have to pay flipper prices...
