    Anyone looking for the 1975 LP and OK with shipping from the UK the best chance will probably be with Banquet. As of this morning they say they have "plenty" still. But they expect thousands of people to be trying to get them online, so you'll need to be logged in with details ready at 8pm on the dot to stand any chance. 

    all signed in & ready, but I noticed the item page says this. Sigh.

  2. if you're talking about the box set, no one (to my knowledge) had gotten shipping confirmation yet. they have until the end of the week to  be on time as "shipping the week of 12/16" as I doubt they would have them all shipped out the first day.

    oops, should have clarified - I'm referring to the single LPs, bought S/T/Blue and OOTV right when they went on sale separately

    If you want to own a copy of our Magnified album on Vinyl, then you'll have to wait until someone actually releases it. The recent release by ORG music, claiming to be our album Magnified, is not. The people over at ORG Music, or perhaps the people at Rhino, (the catalog arm of Warner Bros) decided that they didn't need to check with the band before pressing, and actually left off a very important piece of the album. There is a Segue that comes right after the title track, that was left off. We are not talking about a disagreement in the quality of the mastering, or the type of Vinyl used. They actually left off content. Granted it was a Segue of roughly a minute and half in length, but to us, it is a very critical piece that is important to the flow of the album. Anyone who really knows the band's material, would know that Segues are one of our hallmarks. The one they left off is a particularly significant one that is a clear precursor to what we ultimately did with Segues on Fantastic Planet.

    How this happened is anybody's guess, as the people we have spoken with so far are already pointing fingers at each other with no one willing to accept responsibility. It has nothing to do with the time restrictions of Vinyl, as there is clearly plenty of room at the end of Side A for the 1:40 Segue. This appears to be a simple case of negligence.

    It is very easy for a label to get in touch with us, but even if one can't be bothered to spend the time and effort to contact the creators, and have them approve a new master before release, how hard is it to actually check the Vinyl Master against the CD or Digital version of the album, which are readily available, and as we intended, before you press up and release a 12"? 

    So, for the people who already bought this impostor, we're sorry you were duped. If your a collector type, maybe you'll be into this sort of thing. And for people who are thinking about buying it, we recommend that you not. At least not until they decide to put out the actual album we made.
