Mmm, I'll take 'ultra-limited' with a pinch of crystallised salt these days but this is such a great track I'm going for it. Be a damn sight easier to play this than unpack a triple LP box set each time. Musically I feel this owes ever such a lot to Orbital's Belfast. Seems like a probably homage to me.

Hadn't heard of this band before; very smitten now. My Complications with its Bloc Party intro is killer. Thanks for the tip. Will check out their back cat.

No coincidence with the timing of this given how popular Sia is rn, but very grateful regardless to plug the gap with a repress.

Happy enough to get Tongues on vinyl tbh so will def order (later in the year when it's out ROTW).

$9.99 shipping from CD Universe to the UK. I've never known shipping from US so cheap. Proves it can be done and that generally getting asked for $25+ is bs.

Yes it's unclear. I took the 'Online Exclusive' text to mean it applied to the whole package, but maybe the gold will be in stores?? They've not released to stores so far afaik tho and I didn't want to risk it anyway so ordered with the quickness! You're right about eBay madness. I have Fluffy and a signed Bros 7". If those tracks are on the LP I'll be selling them asap.

Spent 10 minutes trying to work out how to post a new topic and I'm stumped. I found a link to the pre-order for the new Wolf Alice LP. Can't even work out how to add a URL to this post! Fail Anyone care to point me in the direction of instructions please? Cheers

Probably regret a 3xLP and the labour of having to get up every 10 minutes, but it looks damn fine. Ordered from Amazon UK as I'm pretty sure Young Turks use Sandbag for order fulfilment. Sandbag suck major ass; have had too many issues to ever use them again.

thanks. Ordered!

Poster stores use a dry-mounting\vacuum press type machine to flatten posters\prints and remove creases. Wouldn't hurt to ask if they'd try one of your less valuable covers. Just a thought from a non-dick.

This already got posted - http://boards.vinylcollective.com/topic/111482-po-soon-ceremony-the-l-shaped-man-matador-records/

Very much looking forward to this more than the new Prodigy From their site: "8th June 2015 sees the long awaited return of one of the most established electronic acts in modern times.

I just returned it without opening. At least if yours turns up damaged you could always get a refund and purchase locally

For the 'diamond white' LP, be prepared to be underwhelmed with the flimsy vinyl :/ Also, mine arrived damaged. 2" seam split, crushed spine, massive corner bend - if the same packaging is used for overseas shipping too (thin cruciform, no stiffener), good luck! I'm UK. Back to the vinyl, reminds me of those late 80's CBS 12"s that you could almost fold back on themselves without breaking - both the record and the sleeve; so thin. I'm a cynical old git, but this just smacks to me of the same old major label vinyl cash-in practice - press as cheap as possible for maximum markup. 4AD\XL\Mute etc regularly do 180g solid presses in quality sturdy sleeves and inners for less than I paid for this LP. FROOT pancakes anyone? I'm returning this and will wait to feel the heft of a black vinyl instore before purchasing again.

This sounds like it could have been straight lifted from the last Broken Bells LP. Which is a good thing.

Black Messiah is in physical UK stores now ready to ship.

Motherforker. The stock level indicator on the jbhifi site will be my friend.

My contribution. I ship a lot from the UK via Discogs and use Royal Mail. The default insurance, worldwide, for loss\damage is up to £20 when you supply the free 'proof of posting' they provide. I stipulate that anything domestic or international over £20 has to be sent recorded, which gives basic tracking and full value insurance with a signature on delivery. International customers pay £5 for this on top of actual cost shipping. I'm fully aware that buyers have the right to get a full refund from Paypal if the item doesn't arrive. I accept this, it makes good 'no quibble' practice for me and my customers and the above rules cover every eventuality If I buy from an international seller and they put the standard, "I accept no responsibility for items lost in the post" warning, I pay it no heed; Paypal will protect my purchase. In the OP's case, if the seller posted the record without ensuring both parties were fully covered for loss then that's a fool choice. You could argue that the sellers attract more sales by offering cheaper shipping, but that's entirely at their risk in this age of Paypal. The customer's always right, and so Derek™ should file the Paypal claim. Cheers.

I both hate that we have to beg record companies to repress vital, long OOP vinyl, and am also ecstatic at them allowing me to finally own those first 3 releases. (ps - limited colourway for the 1st LP should be 'silver turns to blue')

I only come to VC for the gifs.

Great news. Missed opportunity on the pressing colour though - the film's about the theft of the *Green* Destiny sword. and afaik blue means far less in Chinese culture, compared to something like red, or green, or yellow, or black even

Please to have passed by to get the heads up on this, thanks! First album was great. Saw them live in London too - cool guys. In stetsons

UK stores are selling this for £40 ($60) so yeah, this thread cheered me up a bit

Also a Banquet Records 'splatter' exclusive, probably 300 - http://www.banquetrecords.com/futurehearts
