Fuck the shipping notification! It just showed up!

Has anybody gotten their shipping notification from BSM yet?

Damn, my store didn't get it. I really hope they put those colored one's on their site.

I'm wondering the same. I don't think my shop got the one copy they ordered.

See, now I DO bitch about record prices frequently... I just don't think it's that bad. But go figure the two pieces I want the most this year are, to my knowlege, the most expensive.

I think what was ment here was that the Bleed American release is being put out by an audiophile company, and has been remasterd for vinyl from hi-res masters. Also being pressed on dead quiet European wax (Pallais, presumably). We know for a fact that it hasn't been masterd from your average brickwalled cd, like many pressings have done... It seems to me that they are making the aural presentation the most important aspect of this reissue (besides it's limited availability).

Do I wish it were cheaper? Sure. But like surfingelectrode pointed out, ORG's single LP releases (Nirvana, Sonic Youth, etc) retail for $30 as it is. We're lucky this isn't more.

Can you still order this? MTS' site has no link for this at all? No second pressing? Was it really that small of a run? I don't want to pay a mint for a copy off eBay, especially considering that everybody likes to put their records on the floor to take pics...

More importantly, how does it sound? Anybody happen to know what source was used to master this release?
