Hey guys,

Bert from Newmoon here. I found this thread and felt I need to explain some things. As of right now we are not affiliated with Mayfly Records anymore. After receiving messages of people not receiving pre-orders, them not honoring agreements, and a general radio silence to all of our questions, issues and remarks we will not be working with them any longer. We have not seen the US-pressing of this album for ourselves (and probaly never will). I am very sorry the quality is lacking. We try to do everything to the best of our abilities and hold everything at a very high standard. Having to read that the US-press is not the best it could be breaks my heart.

If you did not receive a pre-order or feel underwhelmed by the quality of the US-release, accept our apologies. Please do not order anything from Mayfly Records, including buying our music on any of their digital platforms. It saddens me to have to say this, but I don't want people to get fucked over any more than already has been the case.

We are talking to some people to see if we can make this album available in the US again in the very near future. It's been a long and tiring ordeal so far, but things are looking up.
 
Lastly, thank you all for all of the love you have given us on here. Absolutely incredible.

I liked most everything they put out, not necessarily enough to buy them all but to ateast give them a listen. I slept on Ratboys and now I fucking love them. Field Mouse is also pretty underrated on the topshelf roster in my opinion. 

should probably make a new thread but cam just posted on instagram represses of Forgettable and Old Gray's An Autobiography are going up at flower girl records tomorrow at 2pm (!)

Hope this double post isn't looked down on, but it's here. Cannot wait to give this a spin.

Grabbed the pink, the new track slaps. 

Yeah but it's SDF, so it's quality over quantity, as always. I don't care if it's a 12 inch EP with 1 track, I will buy it. 

Jade Tree can repress this, but not Jets To Brazil?! 

Yeah, then you just listen to Swervedriver, then you do a bunch of drugs and listen to Primal Scream

RIDE has released a new song today, out later this year on wichita records!

I don't care if I posted this before:
 
Dessa - A Badly Broken Code (P.S. if anyone with any pull reads this include False Hopes as a bonus LP and I'll pay at least $35 if you do it right)

Red House Painters> Mark Kozelek

It has the 'Menu' lyric sheet, identical to the OG pressing

Saw them last night in Denver and was hoping to pick the LP up at the merch table, but they didn't have any! I settled for a t-shirt and decided to order the 3 LP. The show was so good, I was very happy they played 1000 Witnesses and The Most Dangerous Commercials. I fucking love Circa.

Fuck yeah, that show was one of the best Circa shows I've seen.

Probably because Run For Cover stole all of their best artists

Then again, it's pitchfork you're talking about

Got my soup color in yesterday, and holy shit it is beautiful. I now no longer regret selling my og, this packaging is great and the sound is amazing. One if the best reissues ever, and way long over due

I missed out on tickets to the record release show tonight at Kung Fu Necktie when they went on sale Monday and was mega bummed about it all week. So, my girlfriend found a friend who did get tickets and had them send us a picture of the entry stamp on their wrist. We drew it on ourselves with a sharpie and snuck in and it was a fucking incredible show. They played a ton of new songs and I screamed my fucking brains out.

Cool, I bought the red and I thought it was good enough sounding, no surface noise or skips or pops or anything, but man this record blew me away on first listen.
