My order (to Germany) shipped this weekend.

Platomania has also had deluxe in stock since the beginning (don't know if that's a good or a bad thing): https://www.platomania.nl/article/9279027/loveless_indie_only_tip_on_deluxe_gatefold/my_bloody_valentine

These guys sure know how to pick their fonts.

Oh god, I've been waiting for a repress of this for so long, but EU shipping is killing me right before Christmas. Cruel, cruel world.

To be fair @SwiftCat literally ended their post with, "Maybe I need to learn more of the drama," so maybe this would be a good opportunity to be informative about the events instead of calling people 'creeps' and implying they're pro-child abuse ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

I'm not trying to stir up shit with you or anyone else, but I actually know people IRL who don't "internet" like most of us and are absolutely ignorant to Jesse Lacey's cancelation or the details. They aren't bad people for being out of the loop, a dude from one of my bands legitmately thought he got canceled for cheating/gas lighting, not for being a straight up fuckin' predator and was appalled when I gave him the full scoop. 

I mean this guy is posting on an internet forum, though. He has the ability to use Google, I reckon. Ignorance is not a great defence here.

Seems like this run of reissues has been really spotty. For me, Spirit of Eden is basically a perfect press, Laughing Stock is unplayable due to noise and pops, and Mark Hollis has a lot of annoying noise, but it's not a total disaster.

Seems you're one of the lucky ones. There have been a lot of reported problems with this pressing.

My standard black press sounds great.

Live I also thought they lost some steam playing 30 min songs

Categorically incorrect

so chuffed to finally have a copy of this ordered. been waiting a looooong time. 

The Amazon listing says, "The album will be available digitally, and in a special Limited Edition physical package that includes a CD in a tri-fold Soft Pack Video Brochure featuring a 4" HD rechargeable screen..."

It really seems like there will be no vinyl pressing of this

lol, didn’t ask. Mainly because I don’t care as I’m buying it regardless but also because I was just so happy to lock in a copy that I didn’t think about anything else. In hindsight that would have been good info to get... ($15 to reserve a copy)

You paid $15 just to reserve?  In hindsight it would've been good to understand how much the thing you were buying cost?? Is this the world we live in now???

Kinda seems like Tool could write a really long song about this.

I just want a simple, standard gram (because its wasteful and serves no additional purpose), cleanly and carefully pressed black vinyl, impeccably mastered (as close to AAA as possible), normal weight basic gatefold, quality printed jacket 2xLP of everything. No Pic disc. No incorporated television. No lenticular cover (though I would forgive it if they worked it into an Aenima reissue). No wifi router. No nothing crazy. Just solid, true to format vinyl pressing that excels at reproducing the stereo master as beautifully as possible when the fuckin' needle touches down and drags through the basic ass grooves of the godforsaken LP. Can I get an Amen or just a plain old delivery on this?

Lol don't be an idiot. You have to watch your vinyl spin through a 4" display while listening to the output processed through an iphone mic fed into a 2 watt speaker.

In for 90s trance Tool.

It's really sad to see this band slide into such a horrid cash grab state

What about the RT variant from UK?

I don't get stuff shipped to Germany from the UK w/o tracking anymore, so even from there it works out at like 35 EUR :/

Anyone seen any decent EU sellers? Shipping is killing me on these

This is gonna be very fucking good. Silently dropping a whole side of your record is cool af, too. Go on, Bill.

The "fried" is a bit redundant 

Finest Vinyl are stocking it for 50 EUR:

Or drop that new album they’ve been recording this year.

Woah, where'd you hear that?

I just started listening to this and the first fucking lyrics being "I just wanted to be one of The Strokes" almost made me turn this off immediately.

Come on, man. This is Turner's tongue-in-cheek humour at its finest. To open an album as weird as this with that lyric is just getting ahead of every preconceived criticism with a smirk.

Kind of confusing with the solid purple mock up and the splatter one as well, but they seem to be described as the same version?

Has anyone actually heard these liminal remixes? I'm quite curious, as I like the more ambient side of Sigur Ros, but I don't want to drop 25 EUR on the disc if it's dull AF.
