    Yeah, lost the tri when I was trying to check out.  I have an older pressing and mostly wanted it because it's a cool variant.  Got the clear of the new album.

    Same, here.  The variant looks awesome but it was gone before i got through checkout.  Picked up Black and Clear of "The Loser" though so all is well.

    also just a head's up.   they're doing an auction this Sunday at their show.

    and I know they're bringing some goodies.  (I even think they'l do an auction for the new LP's test and Moon's test)

    on their IG they posted that they're bringing the FUCK EBAY kodan split (limited to 50, I think)..

    goodies.

    04/10/22 show at Saint Vitus is also a benefit for Gospel drummers daughter. She was diagnosed with cancer and the show as well as the auction at the show is to raise money for expenses.

    i suppose it would only matter if those original 500 are in circulation.  did they get destroyed or sent out? 

    We all received the original Orange/Blue and then we all received a Blue/light Blue replacement (without cover).  The original 500 Orange are in homes, now they have a rebranded Orange /500 up for sale and its the exact color as the original just named different.

    I asked this on Facebook :). The plant tried to correct the first blue/orange/galaxy pressing and pressed 500 of these foggy oranges. Label and band did not accept them for a replacement copy so they did a third try and then got that foggy blue.

     

    So there should be 500 of the first press, 500 of foggy oranges and 500(?) of foggy blue.

    So I reached out to them as well.  The first pressing was the supposed to be "orange/ sea blue galaxy /500"  what we received was a "foggy orange".  The band reordered the original color and again received a "foggy orange /500".  The band then opted to press "blue/light blue /500" and send those to the people who had purchased the original "Orange/blue galaxy".  I am one of those people.   

     I asked Red Creek if the number of total number of Orange would then be considers top be out /1000.  They said "No, Officially /500 First one did not count to us, as we replaced for another one".  So take that as you will but when I followed up again they basically said the Orange one that I originally received "Officially doesn't count".  In my mind the "foggy orange" is really /1000.  The red creek statement is basically "These aren't the droids you're looking for" .

     

    Regardless I love the LP.  It was a solid and respectable move by Red Creek to send us an additional copy, but being a variant nut this is a weird scenario.

    There is now another pressing with the blue cover art, "foggy orange".  It's basically another mispress but I think it looks really nice.

    This EP has grown on me a lot. I'm really enjoying it now that I have started listening it again after a few months of break. When it was released it felt a bit boring and uninspired, but now I enjoy every song. Weird! Maybe it was just too early to start digesting it right after ADTF. 

    I don't think this is a new pressing.  The "misspress" of the Orange/Blue merge from the 1st press is this exact color.  I think these are probably the left overs from that.
