I just checked out the UK list and I’m drawing the line at Women in Technology by White Town.

Me, a responsible 40-something adult: “Another boring RSD.” The 90s kid who lives inside me: “Hello by Poe, Little Earthquakes B-sides AND Villains by The Verve Pipe? Hell yes! Gotta nab those!”

Was wondering the same. Making me jealous.

Saw Jake Blount over the weekend. Probably no one here cares much about fiddle and banjo music that is mostly several decades old, but it ruled anyway.

Album and preorder came out over the weekend. Vinyl is sold out on Bandcamp but still available through Top Shelf, although the Magenta Magic retail exclusive variant (the most numerous variant) is sold out. Album is real good, y’all. Pressing Info: /1000 ~ Polaris Blue, Gatefold 2x LP /800 ~ 180g Black, Gatefold 2x LP /1200 - Magenta Magic, Gatefold 2x LP (Retail Exclusive)

Man, I somehow completely whiffed on Old Solar but discovered them recently and really love their sound. Picked up See on discogs and ordered Quiet Prayers (Redux) through ATA.

No vinyl but I’ve been really digging this one. https://crowhammer.bandcamp.com/album/vol-1-tales-from-vertexia

I had forgotten about this album. I ordered one of the vinyl but haven’t seen an update in a while.

Well, it’s close enough that I’m not buying another copy . . .

Now available through Merge for those who missed out: https://www.mergerecords.com/product/the_collected_works_of_neutral_milk_hotel

This was recorded kinda close to where I live and couple of local shops had the last pressing in store. It was still a little too rich for my level of interest but cool that it was pressed.

Test presses, boxed set, and a shelf of R.E.M. miscellany all the way to the left (behind the lamp), some random stuff on top.

25% off select items, including some collectors editions, through the weekend. https://mewithoutyou.com/?&utm_campaign=campaign%3A+BFCM+'22+(6380163f02b59f001953ae92)&utm_medium=email&utm_source=omnisend&omnisendContactID=5e20c28a4572ea6db20021ba

Following as I’ve been contemplating this recently too and just keep forgetting to look into it.

TTTH 35% off sale with TTTH & Parting Gift test presses up as well. Prices shout what you’d expect, though I imagine some will he pretty interested (I snagged one I couldn’t pass up): https://www.takethistoheartrecords.com

I’m going to need a guide of my own for the five new ones myself (as their stuff seems to be pretty varied so I expect the new albums will each have their own vibe), but my recollections of the back catalogue off the dome is: - “5” and “7” I remember being pretty similar sounding indie/neo-soul albums. - “Untitled (Black Is)” is far and away my favorite SAULT album so far and uses a lot of samples and quirky rhythms. It sounds kind of like “These New Puritans made a soul album” to me if that means anything to you. -“Untitled (Rise)” is more of an R&B album and I never really dug it. -I don’t recall much about “9” except I recall it being short and having some spoken word components. -“AIR” is basically a classical (almost ambient) album by my estimation. It’s the least like any of their prior albums. I don’t think there are any intelligible vocal in it.

Got the OBI because I love his album. The second thing from my list of “Albums I Wish Someone Would Press But Probably No One Ever Will” that picked up with month (the other was A Mountain Is a Mouth by Bruce Peninsula which randomly got a vinyl pressing out of the blue).
