any luck? i got the email notification saturday morning. package arrived sunday noon.

day after i wrote i didnt get an email, the email came and package duly delivered yesterday. i would email TTL if you are concerned. package was shipped from Lexington KT.

looks like amazon has it for less but it only ship s"in 1-3 months" it does reference the pearl vinyl and 3 discs. Great deal if you don't mind the wait. https://www.amazon.com/Pianoworks-Iridescent-Mother-Pearl-Vinyl/dp/B07QDP91SG/ref=sr_1_2?keywords=eluvium+vinyl&qid=1559596006&s=gateway&sr=8-2

still available on RT for $37.99, presumably without the book. just ordered, and two copies remain.

haven’t received shipping notification while some of you already got their copies

sorry for the bump. i was traveling in denver, went to twist and shout and saw a copy of loveless for $30.99. wasn’t able to scan with discogs but it does say 2013 at the back. the sticker has the date 05/29/19 printed on it. any idea whether it’s legit?

i came prepared too. i’ve been to well over 100 shows and wednesday night was the second time i had earplugs at a show. the only other time was this will destroy you, and even that time was when they were selling earplugs at the merch table. as soon as i saw mono bring back com(?) i knew i had to act

apparently the release date for the deluxe boxset has been pushed to july 25, and july 5 for the double LP. original release date was june 21.

there are about 20 copies available at TTL’s store as of 6pm today

I also remember teen dream being around on NC for a long time. Didn't pull the trigger bcos the color was hideous. I would rather have black vinyl than the purple that they called. p.s. Bloom is 2LP

first time i saw the national was 2007 when they opened for Arcade Fire's Neon Bible tour. what a double bill if you look back at that now. i hadn't heard of the national at that time, but did download (illegally i must say) alligator at the time hoping i could enjoy the opening band a bit more, as I do in most shows. i remember from mistaken for strangers, matt was recalling the early days of the band when they would be playing free shows in tiny clubs in the city and still nobody would show up. i'm so pleased that this band has come such a long way since with their craft.

sold out 3 minutes after i placed order, thank goodness for instagram. but it shows their stock email system is total BS.

Not in order: Quiet Light Not in Kansas Oblivions Light Years Perhaps it would grow on me in time like SWB did, but imo so far so fast is the most boring track on the album.

i had the same feeling after the first dozen listens. then gradually i started to “ not mind it”, and now i actually think it’s a decent track.

wow, even lower than the earliest album? someone actually did ask during the Q&A “why do you guys pretend like the first album don’t exist?”

the triple LP don't quite look like the mock up too, but in a good way

i think the real thing looks terrible even if you didn't put it next to the stock photo. mine is arriving today im happy. 3LP probably next week.

their North America tour starts today. Maybe if someone sees this at the merch table can let us know?

got shipping notification too, also from michigan, media mail, so most likely won't arrive before friday. my other copy (3LP) is coming from amoeba.

i think my situation is a little different. i only signed up when they announced IAETF. looks like the CT variant is sold out too.

i received an order confirmation email back in march for the CT exclusive variant, but just now when i logged in to my CT account, i don't see that under My Orders. I'm a little bit concerned. I'm gonna email CT.

i checked the other day, they still have over 900/1000 of mogwai's every country's sun available. almost 2 years after release.

that's weird, i don't think they sold out, and the gold still has over 800 copies available.

i hope they time the shipment so that it arrives on (or even better, before) release date. I remember receiving Sleep Well Beast the day before release date so hopefully it's the case this time.
