I needed to change my address on the 3 Kesha records shipping next month. Sent a chat to customer service and unfortunately they can't change it after 30 minutes after the order is placed. Since everything was in stock they offered to cancel it and I could reorder. To my surprise they sent a $10 off $50 coupon as an apology and I got the same thing but for $10 less. Pretty cool of them to provide that.

Dang you got lucky. I ordered a record last year from them. When it came, it was trashed. Emailed back and forth with like 6 different customer service reps (on the same email thread). They sent me a label to ship it back and told me they'd send out a replacement. I sent mine back, waited almost a month and they ended up just refunding me. Went to order again and it was sold out. Now flippers are trying to get upwards of $90 for it. So I still don't have a replacement.

In my own experience, I've found it best to email the stores that haven't shipped out your pre-orders yet to update the address. Take note of who answers. For the ones that don't respond, try calling if they have a phone number. If you're moving from an apartment, you can tell the leasing office to hold any mail that may arrive for you after you move. Whether they will or not is at their discretion though. I've had complexes just throw my mail away (non-USPS, so I couldn't re-route), so use this as a last resort. I always re-route my mail through USPS when I move. But for re-routed packages, USPS wants me to pay extra postage when they're delivered. I never do, but it's still annoying to see that written on my packages.

9/10 times I've had success just contacting the merchant and having them update if they haven't shipped the item(s) yet.

You're welcome to try the 10% off code I already used. 6MQZXKSH

I appreciate that. It says it isn't valid for items in my cart. I just have the egg drop variant in my cart. Seems like a unique code. Thank you though!

Yup, open the site and enter your info in the pop up offer. Emails a discount code to you immediately. 

I entered two different emails. One I was already signed up with their email list for. Didn't get an email on either. Maybe they reached their daily limit?  Did the code seem unique, or is it one that you could share?

The standard versions are no longer $30 from Fearless, they're up to $35 now. They still have variants available that are sold out on the band's site though.

Aside from the Deluxe variant, they're a few bucks cheaper from Fearless. https://store.fearlessrecords.com/collections/vinyl

$35 for a standard 2xLP is wack.

Ice Nine Kills have been doing "Evidence" drops for their upcoming album, The Silver Scream 2: Welcome To Horrorwood. The First of the vinyl variants dropped today. A few cassettes are still available too, as well as CD pre-orders.

https://ink-merch.com/collections/notn-july-2021

So far for vinyl we have:

"Bluey Lewis" /500

"Honey Hooked" / 750

"Rolex Gold" / 1,000

"Love Hurts" / 1,500

"Clear Smoke" (Revolver Exclusive) /300

"Bloody Raincoat" (Deluxe) /3,000

"Black w/ Splatter" (FYE Exclusive) /500

"Good Guy Green" /500

One of my favorite albums of the year so far. Glad it's getting pressed.

Pressing info:
Black in Beer – 150 
Rust Red – 100 

Available through White Russian Records here: https://www.whiterussianrecords.nl/product/anson-a-note-for-you-to-find-12/

Or KingsRoad Merch here: https://eu.kingsroadmerch.com/white-russian-records/search/index.php?search=anson

Pre-order and be entered to win one of 10 test presses (2 winners). Not sure if you're entered if you order through KR, but shipping is a little cheaper through them.

I've got my fingers crossed for a US pressing. Shipping prices are wack.

Been waiting a long time for this. 5 of these tracks are already out, and they're very good. Can't wait to hear the rest!

I imagine this is unofficial? Open pre-oder through July. Tracklist is the soundtrack, plus Let Me Sign, Love Is Worth The Fall, and Decode (Acoustic) as bonus tracks. 15 tracks total. Recorded on “skin of a killer” glitter. https://butcherbordello.bigcartel.com/product/deluxe-ost-tape

Only three more days to pick up a cassette copy of this. Once the pre-order period closes, tapes will go into production. Discover some sick music and support a cool cause! https://commontimetapes.bandcamp.com/album/charitapes-vol-2

Common Time Tapes put out the second installment in their "Charitapes" series. All proceeds from sales of this comp will go to the Equal Justice Initiative, a non-profit whose goal is to to end mass incarceration and excessive punishment in the U.S., to challenge racial and economic injustice, and to protect basic human rights for the most vulnerable people in American society. Read more about EJI at  eji.org. Vol. 2 features 19 tracks from different artists from around the globe, from varying genres. Give it a listen at the link below and consider picking up a tape (or buy it digitally) if you like what you hear. Tapes will be available to pre-order until the end of June 2021. However many tapes are ordered is how many will be made.

Furthermore, on June 18th, Bandcamp is donating 100% of their usual cut to the NAACP Legal Defense Fund. So if you purchase it then, you'd be helping out two like-minded organizations.

How exactly do they treat their fans? What happened exactly? You must be right about something if it's taking this long to sell out /500 on only two variants.

And are we talking about "fans" here or are they just giving an attitude back to people who give it to them? 😆

I would assume they were fans. The encounter that I had with them was at Warped Tour, whenever the last year they were on was. I went to their signing with my friend. It lasted for like, half an hour. People would ask to take photos with them, and I heard them say countless times to the people asking, "sorry, we don't do pictures." But almost every single girl who asked for a photo, they allowed; just not the guys. Then we get to the point where there are 3 or 4 people in front of us before we get to the signing table. There's maybe 5 people behind us until the end of the line. Without saying a word, they all just drop their markers and walk away. The 10 or so of us remaining are just all kind of looking around at each other like, "what the hell just happened?" Then a guy comes out (I assume their manager?) and says, "Uuuuhh, sorry about that. I guess... they... have to go... somewhere." He handed the next 2 people a pre-signed poster, which was nice. Then less than twenty minutes later they are posting about playing videos games in their bus.

That was enough for me. I don't think musicians are obligated to take photos or sign posters. But they should at least treat their fans with some respect.

Why not?

Never been a fan of the way these guys treat their fans. They're talented, but their egos overshadow their talent.

Times change…

 

I’m sure if you go far enough back, there’s people who remember when Walmart originally stopped selling records and it was strange they didn’t.

Very true. 

Huh. I guess it's not "odd" to see vinyl at Target and Walmart now. This thread didn't age too well. 😂

yeah they kinda added them in stages the last couple days

Cool. 8 now. Nothing great so far, in my opinion. I'll keep checking back though.

EDIT: They updated the Wednesday banner. Shows Motley Crue's Greatest Hits, an Al Green's Greatest Hits and a Kane Brown record now.

7 titles are live. Assuming they'll add more?

Damn. That Sound of Madness mockup looks sick. Wish I hadn't ordered the white repress now.

Cool idea. Submitted a song.

Giving it a listen tonight!

Yo! Common Time Tapes is working on compiling the next installment of the "Charitapes" series. We got a few submissions from VC artists for Volume 1, so I figured I'd try posting again here.

In case you're unaware about the Charitapes series, it's essentially a mixtape that we put together using tracks submitted by unsigned artists from anywhere on the globe to raise funds for a non-profit organization. Each Volume supports a different charity. All proceeds from digital and physical sales of Vol. 2 will be donated to the Equal Justice Initiative.

If you or someone you know is interested in having a track included on the comp, you can find more information about  the project here.
