mindovermatter

I held onto a couple in case of USPS disasters (as I do with all variants), so there might be another VERY brief window to snag one still. I would join our IG or Twitter in case I'm not able to hop on VC when it happens.

You're in for a treat! These are my favorite TAAS songs of their entire discography! I have 40 more orders to ship out and then I'm caught up! If you were the last to order, yours is still in the queue. On another note, we are down to 5 of the white-ish variant. I have a few set aside in case the USPS ruins someone's order, but not many. That color is about to go OOP!

Not quite. The insert on the CD was like a 6 or 8 panel fold-out thing. I took all of the components and re-arranged the items to fit on a 12"x12" double sided insert instead. I am very eager to hear some thoughts on the audio. I really think Dave at Lucky knocked it out of the park on this one, and I hope you all agree!

I have two copies of Wake/Lift and would be willing to trade. PM me your list, friend!

I'm no pro, so maybe someone else with greater knowledge can fill in some gaps, but that's the 101 version. The more you know!

The inner jackets are SUUUPER snug. I gave a test run to about <30 records to make sure my math was correct, but I will gladly send you a separate inner sleeve & I can make it a touch wider to help!

Maybe I can help: When mastering the audio for the first pressing of this, it was mastered too loudly or too "hot." In doing this, it physically creates a wider gap between each groove. If there is a ton of low end and not enough space between the grooves, it causes negative audio reactions. My guess is that this new pressing was cut much quieter, allowing for the grooves to remain closer together and keep the ending of each side further from the label. This is how longer records are cut into single LPs. If you compare any 1xLP pressing to a future 2xLP repressing, the second pressing is generally louder with a more prominent low end.

Surely one of you nerds has gotten their copies by now. I've spent the last week at the post office. They're making me pay rent because I've been there so often!!

That looks gorgeous!

I'm with Derek. I liked the jam as a whole, but when those higher pitched vocals rolled up on me, it made me take a step back for a second.

Everything sounds great in a frame! ;-)

They are "in the process" but I already did that shit. Immediate delivery is SO 2014...

Just this last year, I hand-delivered an order on Black Friday 6 hours after it was ordered. I like to think I set some kind of record - not even Amazon can deliver THAT fast! In other news, these have started shipping and I have roughly the first 100 records ordered out of the door. I'm packing them in the order that they were ordered and - full disclosure - I am also still assembling as I go. Once I'm all caught up on mailing these, I'll give you a fun tour of how this release happened. It's quite the journey! Haha

Rad. Thanks for the heads up! That $5 shipping for a 7" is kind of a bummer though. It better not come in a fucking bubble mailer!

This album is fucking great and if you don't order it you are a moron.

HHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHhhHhHahahahahahahahHAHAHAHAHAHAH *gasping for air* HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA This is the best damn joke I've ever been told! Kudos, and thanks for the hearty laugh, $RC!

Got the colored variants. Much excite.

I wish the UK store shipped to the U.S. I want that blue variant also!

Will buy excitedly and without abandon.

Do you need Bill Nye to pop in and explain the results of heat on plastic?

Have you gotten this already? I have yet to see mine...

F'real though...make the inner dimensions roughly 7" wide and you're golden. Or use your collection as a template. For instance, I have a couple of 7" box sets that are actually about 8" wide, so my 7" holders are a touch bigger than most.

Pending payment on KOLS, these are spoken for. Thanks for playing everyone! Happy post-RSD!

Also, Pity Sex is spoken for. Who wants KOLS?!

Not sure if I am following you question here, friend.
