shows release date for the first 5 albums as 2nd December
haven't found any other links yet

luckily enough i've seen them around 7 or 8 times , but they should release Anthology: The Sounds of Science on vinyl. A nice 4LP set or something.  

they play it so we can leave the venue earlier

finally something for the peeps who bought the 2017 subscription!

All I am saying is, for 90% of the releases you in the US get a good deal...and it seems irksome to many they have to pay anything over 5 quid. To be honest I am making a general point which also includes ebay buyers that harangue me about shipping even when I lose money send stuff over there.
 
The point I was trying to make is that even comparing like for like, I think over here, we are charged more. 'Rip off Britain' is a real thing and to package stuff up and send to the US is probably more costly than a comparable service to you lot. Plus you are all benefiting from the conversion given our economy is bad and about to get a lot worse. You can probably all club together and buy most of London soon.
 
Anyway, your analogy only really works if his legs grow back. 

Fair enough. I am just very used to seeing complaints about shipping costs even when reasonable, as US buyers usually aren't subjected to them as much.

different direction for them , preordered anyway

exactly. Wichita vs Polyvinyl. And isn't the whole primary purpose of regional exclusives that we don't have to pay absurd shipping? Sucks for all you Americans though, for once (just once) happy to be European. 

Kontraband (the euro store) send a mail yesterday that there's a delay from the manufacturing plant and that they would be send out in the beginning of September. Don't know if this only implies to Europe

bought the eu silver, cause yeah, living in the eu makes you buy eu  

Can't be more unlistenable than the actual music on their last two albums. 

I think maybe he just needs to blow on the grooves and try re-inserting into the turntable a few times.

Belgian pride!

Merchnow has the US preorders up, they all say limited to 20 so I'd jump on it.
Grabbed a Half Purple/Half Orange myself.

still some room on the bench?

This!!

Since I live with my girlfriend and she uses the my USPS app she always knows when I'm getting records in the mail. It's useful app but also when like 6 months of preorders come in the same week it requires some explaining.

Why is it really matter where it's made? I have czech pressed records and there are no problems with them. Is it just an uber-american thing?
(your clothes were made in 3rd world countries, pssst)

KRM finally starts shipping from LA and im over here ordering the EU variant lol

Grabbed a green.
Not amused about the price tag, though. But, wtf, have I just payed only $8.28 to ship a record to Germany???

Real Friends - The Home Inside my head (brown starburst /500)
Julien Baker - Sprained Ankle (yellow /3000)
The Killers - Hot Fuss
Dog Eat Dog - Play Games
Nora - Loser's Intuition
Saosin - Along The Shadow
Biffy Clyro - Only Revolutions

Pre-order is up on banquet records for EU/UK. 

Most bands sell their albums for around 15€ at shows, so yeah ,they're banking

Really glad Dog Knights is putting this out in the UK, they do great work.
