The Royal Dutch of Dukes reacted to tape in PO Now: Sunny Day Real Estate - How It Feels To Be Something On Reissue
Sub Pop will show the "Limited Loser Edition colored vinyl available while supplies last!" message until they're gone and then take down the message. While you can't guarantee you don't put in your order in between the last one being sold and the message going down, considering that we've only known about this for an hour, you're probably safe right now.
Anyway, I've got an OG of this but I definitely gotta get in on this yellow.

The Royal Dutch of Dukes got a reaction from Eliminator Jr. in Neurosis - Strength and Vision (Full Length Discography Box-Set)
Hey kids, long-time lurker, first-time poster...just wanted to mention how awesome this thing is. Here's a (poorly-lit) photo of the whole thing:
I love what they did with the artwork...having the washed-out type covers on each LP, and then all of the original full-size art and liner notes in the book. Unfortunately, I have the same issue as everyone else - The A side of Sovereign has the A side of Silver in Blood instead. I just emailed about it today, so we'll see what happens. I noticed that the matrix codes are the same, so I assume they just used the wrong stamper when pressing. Also, had a small seam split on Times of Grace (you can sort of see it in the picture) which, given the size and weight of this thing, I certainly won't worry about, and also had a bit of glue on the edge of the Given to the Rising CD, but was able to wipe it off and it seems to work fine.
On the whole, I'm really happy with this - everything sounds great, and now I just need to get a frame for the print!
