Saw them yesterday in Amsterdam, they played this new song called Sun and it sounded awesome. Hope they release it as a single soon

Also curious when they will release the live session they filmed some weeks ago, they had this also streaming live on facebook

Yeah those went OOS real quick with bloom & breathe

Same with the other releases before that

was about to post that, looks nice!

I have a feeling this vinyl package prints money for UO, how many copies are there? like 4000? And a new pressing on the way, man. Unlikely they would release DtGL as a stand alone due to the succes of this release right?

that cover, how could they

if they get rid of the text i might consider

like the song better every time i listen to it, also screened cover still seems to be available. With Bloom and Breathe it was gone within a few hours if I remember, i was so bummed that time

...

On topic: This album is gonna be great, and the variants look awesome as usual. Sucks that the screen printed cover isn't half as cool as the standard one. I actually really like that standard cover a lot.

good thing we can just take it out of the cover;)

love this band, song is good though hope it's not the best one on the new album

they pulled a MovMou screened cover ordeal.

Actually you know that MovMou wasnt a cover it was just a print, which was kind of silly when i got it. They didnt say it would be a cover right?

Though that 180 gram is of more value than the cover IMO

International shipping was only 8 dollars for me, so i feel more than fine about that. Got the 180 gram goodness

EDIT: seems indeed weird that you pay 8.70 for domestic shipping and I paid 8.80 for international

men i dont like the screened cover

So so far we know it comes out 3rd of June and by the looks of it 1 LP. Maybe more like their releases they did before Bloom and Breathe, being 6-7 songs.

Is there anywhere to pre order a colored version in the UK at all? Thanks.

Not yet, see this tweet: https://twitter.com/tinyengines/status/712318611705225216

Edit: I suspect it will eventually be in the BSM store, since their other records are also on there

Got mine today, finally... I get the opinions on the packaging. Took me a while to get it out and after playing it took some time to get it back in, especially the outer sleeve. Anyway loving the album, sounds even better on vinyl IMO. And love the etching on the transparant record

Got my blue in today. Beautiful.

Looks good! The etching would have looked better if it was a little bit more transparent, but cant wait

so is it ever confirmed that retail is black after all?

They told me the black is not limited

I would love them to explain how "the nature" of pre order sales prohibits cancellations... other than of course "we have your money already and don't want to." Hopefully somebody grabbed a screen shot of the item description page when it was listed as /1000 so anyone who wants to cancel has some proof for PayPal.

This, but who would think of making a screenshot when you see no harm in the pre-order

maybe for the paypal claim you can link to http://modern-vinyl.com/2016/03/25/thrices-comeback-lp-up-for-pre-order/

EDIT: here the band even announces it to be 1000 https://twitter.com/Thrice/status/713369719936450560

The Bella Union pressing on red+clear retails for $45 in Germany. I N S A N E.

no difference in price when ordering from US or EU, which doesnt make sense

pitchfork did a nice review for it: http://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/21686-the-wilderness/

hoping my copy arrives soon, cant wait to spin it! They are playing Best Kept Secret festival in the Netherlands in June, hope I can justify a day ticket to see them. 

Then cancel your order and order domestically. There is no reason to get pissed that more people can get the record.

Im really not pissed that more people can get the record, i couldnt care less. Its that it said it was 1000 presses what pushed me into buying it from them and not getting it domestically

...er of fact, I seem to remember paying to see Thrice on a farewell tour, and now they're back together. Now other people get to see them on a tour after that. Is that cruel?

Im with you on that

I'll contact their store see what they are up to and cancel if needed.

So the thread went from "They only did 1000, oh no!" to "Everyone can get the black now, oh no!"?

so imagine this, you live in the EU and thrice pre-orders go up in the US. You know the LP's are limited to 1000 pieces so you dont want to miss out and you grab it and pay 20 dollars on shipping.

then suddenly they scrap the limitless of the LP which basicly means you paid 20 dollars of shipping for nothing, because eventually all non limited presses will reach the EU without having to pay the aforementioned shipping costs. Cruel? I would say so

And so the controversy begins.

This would be super super crappy of them

Word on the street is lazy Labrador purchased 500+

no way

Nope, I ordered one for my brother as well.

hmm ok, so we'll see a lot of them on ebay/discogs later, great

On the site they are now saying the "colored LP" is sold out. So likely amazon LP is black.

Was the PO limited to one per customer?
