I noticed the release date on the link still has the 10-23-15 as before.
Makes me wonder if the exclusive will be released first.

Preorder is back up. Got one
-
I love how people have to label stuff. Its good music. Some people like it others dont. This is a very important record for me. I enjoy everything theyve done after Metal Blade except that trash they released a couple years back.

Im not a fan of hazed records so ill go with red. Ill shoot 10 extra for anyone that can preorder now for me and I can get back next Friday.
-
4 x LP's group buy is $32 each
I'll do it as well.

Sucks that INO will be exactly the same. I have it. D.H mentioned the INO will be white (as the previous release), but As far... will be a different color.

I got this on CD, at a show, when it was first released. Wish I didn't know since I want this. It sounds really nice on CD tho.

He is getting shat all on in the comments.
So, Collect is dead now?
This article explains it pretty much.

UDPATE: A NY Times article came out today, revealing more info about Geoff's situation with Martin:
Mr. Rickly said he was aware of Mr. Shkreli's past business dealings, which included controversial investments and lawsuits from former employees, at the time of their partnership. "Of course I Googled him," Mr. Rickly said. "I had apprehensions and I talked to him about it. He has a cavalier attitude about things. At the time, one on one, it was soothing, but in public now it comes across as borderline sociopathic.""You take any capitalist money and you never know. It's a dirty system and usually people do something questionable things," Mr. Rickly added.Mr. Rickly said he had hoped to use the money to fund struggling artists. "At the very worst, if Martin was a bad guy, then you're taking his terrible money and giving it to artists who never get any," he said. "I wanted to make something great out of it -- the stupid Robin Hood narrative that everybody knows."The article also points out that the future of Collect may not be looking good:
Mr. Rickly said losing Mr. Shkreli's financial support might result in the label's closing. "This is going to end the career of the record label, no doubt," he said. "If I were a band on the label I would be having a serious crisis of faith right now. The amount of money I have in the bank doesn't cover my outstanding invoices. It's devastating."Lastly for now, Geoff has tweeted the following:
Because there are some conflicting things, I feel the need to say this plainly. I have always been an honest and caring person. Collect has been a labor of love from the beginning. The bands on my roster are the best, the brightest, the most forward thinking, rhe most diverse group of people. I'm so proud of all of them and they didn't deserve this. Tonight I'm running on nothing but faith. Faith that any missteps I make in the next few days will be forgiven by people that matter to me. Because I'm human and I hurt. Faith that tomorrow will be better and I'll use my 20 years of punk rock resourcefulness to fulfil every promise I've made. Faith that all of you that have sent their love to me today will help pull me up and teach me a better way to make this label work. And some bands will leave and I will love and support them and some will stay and I'll bleed for them like I do. And I'll make new mistakes. But I'll do it in the best, most honest, most caring way that I can. With my friends and family @SkeeterNYC and persevere.I love you friends. I love you kind strangers. I love you who have been outraged. We need to rage against things sometimes. Now is one. Mostly I love our brilliant bands and @normanbrannon and @shaundurkan leonora Liza and @BraceYourselfPR --- thank you brothers and sisters.Good night from Germany. XoxoMost likely due to them having Nothing and Creepoid, a bigger label might just buy them out if another backer shows up.
