F'real. Especially $RC of all places.

Just updating that all non-box set orders have shipped!  The USPS is still fucked, however, so exercise patience. 
 
For the box sets, I’m just waiting on the shirts. I only ordered the sizes/quantities to fulfill the box set orders, and once they’re printed I will assemble, pack and ship!

Anyone who has ordered from me in the past knows that I always hold onto a few copies in case of USPS shenanigans. If anything doesn’t need replacing, there will be a very VERY few copies left over that will go up later. 
 
just gotta let the dust settle and let people get their records first. 

To clarify in case I made it confusing earlier: the track listing for SUK is the same as the OG pressing, the only difference is the artwork, the variants and the vinyl master. 
 
The vinyl master is the same as the versions that we sold in Boston and LA (because these are all part of this new, second pressing), there aren’t any new tunes or live tunes on this EP.  Yes, if you’re doing the math, we have indeed been sitting on these records for more than a year now. Haha
 
Sorry if I fumbled that one!

I hope to one day do the covers EP and Dusted!  They’ve been lower priority over new music and SUK, though. 

Sorry to do this to ya!  It’s been OOP for sooooo long and so many people have been missing out. I’m so happy the band is finally ready for a repress and we can get it back in print. 
 
My hope is to keep it in print going forward, so if you’re in it for the long haul, prepare for several more variants!

Side note:  this new pressing (which includes the “live show” versions from last year) have a brand new vinyl master. I think they sound better than the OG!

I would send you one and then it would just sit gently on the other side of the border until the apocalypse ends.  Haha!

I did actually put a Bad Rabbits 7" in one of them!  I don't have any left of the American Love or Mimi singles, so it was slim pickin's
 
Fun fact:  I do have a completely unreleased Bad Rabbits 7" lathe cut featuring a song that I am legally not allowed to sell because of song clearance issues.  Part of the whole Mimi delay fiasco.  Anyhow, I allllllmost stuck one of those in these mystery boxes...but I don't want to get sued either.

They won’t have *these*
 
That’s all I have to say about that. 

The wait was terrible on this release, but I will 100% make sure you get your order. Just send me an email. I have a *very* small stack of orders that are pending shipment and if yours is in there, I can let you know. If yours isn’t in there, I can figure out what’s happening and still get you squared away.

Never again will i do a preorder thanks to how poorly this went down. Lesson learned. 

That said, this NWBD 7” is in hand and also shipping immediately!

I sent an email to everyone who preordered about 3 weeks ago. Did you see that one?  That was my last available update!

Hey friends!
 
if you missed it on social media, I made a last minute move from LA to Chicago last month and that huge move slowed things down a bit for us, so I’m fighting to get caught back up. 
 
• Downloads:  I’ll dig in and send another email shortly for subscribers to get everyone caught up!
• Mimi - lacquers are done, tests approved, just waiting on final pressing copies. This plant is a little backed up, so hopefully this delay isn’t too intense. 
• Zao/Yashira split - lacquers are done, tests are approved, and the plant is hustling this through for us. Shouldn’t be too much longer at all!
 
The next few sub 7”s (as well as the very late usLights 7”) are deep in manufacturing as well, so we are going to have a very busy end of the year!

I feel you. I'll wait a mail cycle (12-14 days) before I check in on an order that has not updated, especially if it's a label that normally sends shipping updates. Then, I'll wait another 7-10 days for a reply before I check back in. I know there are jerks on both sides of the equation but I think it's possible for there to be a positive "Hey checking in" "Cool, here's the status" exchange where both the label and customer are being cool and polite. Doesn't have to be a shameful negative thing for either party.

To chime in on the Mylene Sheath dialogue:
 
As a one-person, small label, every single email, FB message, social media comment, Instagram DM, tweet, Snapchat and phone call that I have to reply to that asks “where is my record?” Or “can you send tracking?  I didn’t get that email” or anything of the sort prevents me from doing anything else, namely packing up records. 
 
Just be patient, people. Christ. No one is trying to scam you, and sometimes shit just takes a long time.  We certainly don’t enjoy being behind schedule or knowing that customers are getting antsy, but the constant demand for updates (especially when there isn’t a reason to “update”) only slows things down further. 
 
Also, the people who email me 24 hours after placing an order demanding their tracking info will automatically ensure that their record is the last one that I ship.

Good news!  We are announcing the March 7” tomorrow!  Ha!  We are only 14 days late!  *eye roll*
 
Yes, RSD has everything jammed up. Again. The March records are done and the April ones are well underway. May might feel another small delay, but that one is the fault of the band getting me their audio late!  Everything after that will be smooth sailing!  Check your emails first thing tomorrow for more info and subscriber copies of the March 7” will be shipping as soon as the records land at my house next week!
