I ordered the black variant, and mine arrived several weeks ago.

Shipping is getting rough these days.  I'll probably just order the black from my local shop.

fwiw, it's not completely sold out -- a number of the bundles are still available

You're right.  Now is it worth it to drop $60 after shipping just for 2 songs?  We shall see.

The only thing worse than having to make a purchase decision on this prior to hearing it is checking the store to find it completely sold out before you have a chance to buy it.  Guess I'll wait til it's out and hope the Discogs sellers aren't too greedy.

Leftovers are up NOW! www.1234gorecords.shop!

No Beach House.  😞

Or maybe the throw in the S/T this time, press it on black, and then release it on colored in another year after that. 

As bummed as I am to have had to settle for the Amazon variant, I think I'm more jealous of the EV variant shipping 2 months earlier.   Though, I also have the 2011 Neverender version, so first world problems for sure.

Another interesting tidbit is that Mars Hill church fell apart admist a huge scandal. On Thrice's comeback album there is a song called Whistleblower which seems to indicate it was Dustin who did the uhhh...the whilstleblowing. 

I'm pretty sure Whistleblower is actually about Edward Snowden.

If it was a space issue, which it definitely wasn't, they could of removed the three live songs tacked on at the end.

My thoughts exactly.  I haven't gotten my copy yet, but I'm assuming they had to print a new slipcase and insert to reflect the reduced track list, too.  So strange!

So apparently they decided to take "Buried" and "Don't Say You Won't" off of Remains. If I didn't have an OG copy I would be piiiiiiiissssed. Maybe a super deluxe 3x10"+7" is on the way? 

 

My patience is running thin with this zombie Vagrant records lol

Now I'm considering overpaying for a 2007 press.  Initially you'd assume they were trying to squeeze it onto 2 LPs, except the old one did that with all 22 tracks.

Repress of Adore is also showing up in stores apparently 

Yeah, I picked up a copy in my local store yesterday.   

My pre-order shipped yesterday.

I really love White Silence.

Not one Vinyl copy of Bodies for sale on Discogs?! Or at least I cannot find em. Can only see CDs for sale. What am I doing wrong?

The vinyl release is delayed until July.

Is this a new variant?

I believe that's the indie press.

Forever hoping these bumps are for Year Zero 😕

Same here.  But no, that and The Slip are still "coming soon" like they've been for the last several years.

"Exclusive Clouds Hill edition"

I wonder what this actually means? I don't see the exclusivity being black vinyl? Or just because these standalone releases will be not available in retail (which I do not believe actually)?

Probably that the Cloud Hills store is the only place to pay these prices.  I hope.

Has anyone received theirs yet? I got the shipping notification in mid October and they didn’t give tracking Info 

Same here.  Though, I just got a shipping email for my third single on Wednesday, and it arrived the next day.

Hazards is probably my favorite Decemberists record.  I got to see them twice during that tour, and it was magical.  This was an instant purchase.

Nuclear Blast's site timed out, so I ordered from Bullmoose, thinking my first order didn't go through.  Nope.  So, I guess I ordered two copies.

Blue/black of the S/T is already gone.  Settled for white/black.

I actually don't have a single copy on vinyl, so I hope I get one.

Looks like BM also pulled theirs down for the time being.
