My man.

@Derek™  keep a pulse on the NYD webshop. Somebody on a Facebook Boris fan group says they saw a few flood related items pop up on NYDs FB store for a hot second.  Among those items they say were included are the elusive fan club variant of Flood @ ¥ 5,700 and the TMR vault exclusive as well @ ¥4,000.
 
Could be that they're trying to match the initial release date of the album on 12.15. So, maybe we'll see something pop up tomorrow 🤞

This one.

180g is a gimmick and people who tell you otherwise are being intentionally stupid.

Don't become a collector . Having 10 different albums is better than having 10 different versions of one album.
 
Don't feel the need to buy every release by an artist just to have if you don't really like the release. 

Just leave the hobby now. You will inevitably miss that 1/25 variant down the line and, at the point, is what you have really a collection?
 
In all seriousness though, I guess it depends on what type of music you're looking for. If you're into pop music, you can probably find what you're looking for on any major music store like Rough Trade, Turntable Lab, etc. For Soundtracks, Mondo, Invada, Waxwork Records are good. 

For myself, I find the best ways to find releases are:
Following artists that you like on social media. They usually post if they are releasing something on vinyl. Looking up what labels your favorite artists are on and keeping up with their social media. Depending on how small a label or artist is, sometimes it's the only way to get info on upcoming vinyl releases Exploring on bandcamp Joining facebook, reddit or discord groups. I've lucked out so many times seeing a post on a repress or new release and being able to snag something
And of course, visiting this forum! Have a fun time collecting!

Thanks for posting this! Grabbed the opaque marbled and finally picked up The Raging River while I was at it.

If you missed the beautiful Red Creek variants, I think they just added rest of them in their store. About 200 left of both at the moment. 

What’s the source of this information? 

That is correct, it is Infinite. They posted a photo on their Facebook:

Brand new copy of Fall of Troy's Doppelganger came with a gnarly seam split and I don't even want to fucking deal with it. Makes me so uncontrollably angry haha.

The Dawn To Fear boxset is on sale at $45 too (I actually ended up picking that up as well).

I hate getting sealed records. More often than not, the jackets come with seam splits. And it's good to test play new records with how many bad pressings there are nowadays. Have had to return/exchange like 4 or 5 records within the past year for audio defects.

Actually, jokes aside, there was this dude in a Facebook group for Boris who was gloating about keeping his latest purchases not only sealed, but contained within their mailers.  I'm not sure if he thought that exposure to air would somehow taint the music but he received so much flack for the post – rightfully so – that he initially got defensive over other people "telling [him] how to spend [his] money", but quickly removed his posts when he couldn't keep up with the text abuse.  I'll never forget that guy.  One of his main interests on Facebook was sourdough bread.

surprised they didnt release each song on its on LP for this 😂

This definitely a boot. It's a single jacket and sound quality is apparently not so great:

Was able to use code THANKS10 to get this to $35.xx shipped.

Kitsugi is a great album. The only one I like after Plans. Narrow Stairs has a few good songs but some of it is horrible. 

Hot take, I actually think Kintsugi was a good album. But yes, in general since 2008 they have not been the same
