I'm quite confident we'll be able to find clear copies in some euro indie stores, also I would expect new cool variants being announced on Monday, some sort of yellow is pretty obvious considering the variant range of previous releases in this live series.

nice, can't wait!

Tracklist from amazon 1. Hall of the Dead 2. Hand of the Host 3. Holy Tears 4. 20 Minutes / 40 Years 5. Ghost Key 6. Wills Dissolve 7. Threshold of Transformation 8. Carry 9. Celestial (The Tower)

Btw Live VII is already available for preorder on different websites with an expected release date of 3/31/2017

Interested in this as well, please let us know how did it go.

I think I know what you mean, the mock up depicted a more dense and vivid yellow. I'm not a huge fan of splatters, I'm not gonna provide details of what they remind me because it's likely someone is eating while reading this and I don't want to disturb that. I love clear vinyl though and in this case I think it makes sense with the overall artwork so I am happy I got hold of this. I also like that the jacket goes in accordance with the standard Wavering Radiant theme, since I only own a Conspiracy copy on clear.

I love corner dings same as I love cellulitis. Welcome to the real world.

thank God there is only one pencil box color variant anyway these guys were all to me during their first four records, specially the first two, anything else sounds super uninspired, don't expect anything from them anymore... pass

Grabbed all 5, Thomas Hooper is the one I like the most

BOOM!

fyi bandcamp download is free (no minimum required)

That's weird considering there are actual pictures of this set on the net so it's not a pressing plant delay...

Not only that, we shouldn't be allowed to play their records anymore.

$12 intl shipping rate in merchtable is appreciated, they also have the best looking variant in my opinion, ordered!

I mentioned that 5 posts above, not sure if my posts are read by anyone at all

I have multiple variants of each of their releases, this one only in clear though, which I am very happy with. That splatter looks gorgeous, however price + intl shipping is going to be difficult to justify...

I'll just wait till it's available in some shop nearby

Before You I Appear is pressed on virgin vinyl in a limited quantity with free download card. In composing music, SUMAC opts for a process of simultaneous construction and dismantlement. Long-form rock based structures are distended to the point of erosion, reiterated in continually alternating sequences, and plied with extra-musical implements of chaos and tonal abstraction. Through the practice of psychophysical exertion and sensorial disorientation the music becomes a tangible projection of the players underlying emotions and spirit. Furthering this dynamic approach, SUMAC has invited similarly like-minded artists to reconfigure and deconstruct pieces from their latest album What One Becomes. Samuel Kerridge, Bleed Turquoise, Kevin Drumm and Japan’s ENDON offer up beautifully bent interpretations of the original work. The results range from impossibly dense and perpetually ascending psych-noise blowouts, to subdued passages of subtly curdled drones punctuated by disembodied vocal excretions. Though stylistically differentiated from the source material, all four tracks posses a parallel predilection for combining combustable atmospherics and emotionally penetrative musical maneuvers. http://www.thrilljockey.com/products/before-you-i-appear Preorder for 12. 09. 2016

So I was wrong, there are two different US/EU variants with the same name, cool! anyway I think I am fine with the EU one...

Based on that email my guess is that there's just one clear w/ brown splatter which is the same in UK and US stores I am just thinking about what happened with Memorial, a translucent grey was announced on webstores and opaque grey as tour variant and it ended up being the other way around... The tour is on the corner and I wouldn't be surprised if a tour variant is planned.. just saying...

nice!

I'm looking for the black 2xLP version in Europe, so far I've seen prices starting at 39.99€ up to 51.99€. I guess I should wait until the release date, probably I will find it in a local store for better price..
