mmhmm

Someone split up their box and sell me BEAA. 

Wow.

I'm just here for Teenage Politics and BE&A, so I'm going to hold out hope for single presses. Have all the more recent stuff and definitely don't need more copies of those lol

Unexpected pairing but I like it. I just want BEAA.

The price point is really interesting to me...with having to license everything from Pokinatcha through BEAA (including Secret Weapon) from Capitol/A&M, I have no doubt the price reflects that. But it's expensive enough that if you're a fan wanting only, say, three albums really badly from the set...at least from my perspective I'd start to wonder if it's worth it. 

I'm willing to bet there aren't many people hankering for Panic and the albums after it since most of them either had several variants or were available/easily obtainable for years.  I dunno, it'll be interesting to see how this sells.

Yeah but you get a book full of pictures of fan letters. 

Gotta be a 7" but the mystery factor is intriguing. Probably a one-sided single lol.

I stopped listening after Before Everything & After came out. Is there a Cliffs Notes guide for all their albums since then? I seem to remember them getting away from the poppier, polished sound of their major label records but I could be misremembering and why listen for myself when I can ask on VC.

Panic from 2005 was basically the opposite of BEAA in most ways...lots of great songs on it. I started to lose interest after that myself...there are some good songs from their 2007 and 2012 albums though.

They'll be released individually. 

I wonder if BEAA will be a double vinyl.

I also wonder if this pressing of Panic will include the three demo bonus tracks the version from Side One Dummy had on it. 

I wonder further if this new pressing of Secret Weapon will include the four bonus tracks that were on Side D of the original pressing. 

Lastly, I'd love for someone to go back and fix the dumb production/mixing errors on BEAA. Hearing them in the final product is so cringe, especially for such a highly-produced album.

They said these will be sold separately. 

Yep. I'm guessing since all but Before Everything & After have been pressed on vinyl and obtainable (albeit for high prices) for upwards of 25 years, there are a fair number of people uninterested in this except for BEAA. Hardcore fans already have everything on vinyl. 

Also, what a missed opportunity to sell a ton of box sets by including Let It Happen and making it an exclusive to the box. 

"Message me. Maybe we can negotiate"

Haha!

EASY. FUCKING. BUY. 
 

Less than 690 left!

The vinyl shows up in multiple preorder packages...how sure are you of that number? 

Ordered with haste. Looking forward to the album livestream.

what was the “bonus item” supposed to be?

An extra 7" - didn't work out.

Yep, you guessed it. Nice!

Anybody else order the mega bundle? So much disappointment and I haven't even opened the records yet. There's 115 "test presses" AKA black vinyl versions with no labels. And even though I ordered the mega bundle with the 3 1st press versions (color doesn't matter so much to me) and test presses, I ended up with a 2nd press in my order. Hoping its a mistake and they can correct it, but interested to see if anyone else who ordered the mega bundle got 2nd press copies.

So glad I cancelled mine...115 wow. There was like 20-30 initially.

Email and ask

Less than 90 copies of the Let It Snow repress left. I'd recommend nabbing this if you're interested. Some RK releases do not have plans to be repressed moving forward. For examples, refer to the "retired" page here:

A $40 lighter. Nice.

I love Bleachers but I've learned my lesson with 7"s. No bueno. And both these songs are the on the upcoming full-length.

People are speculating that this is the same as the Starlight edition.  Which is certainly better, but still isn't the film mixes of the tracks.

Haven't heard of the Starlight edition- can you share some additional info about it? A quick Google search didn't turn up anything substantial on the topic...
