I enjoyed the Wisp ep the few times I've listened to it, and knowing that these are 'collaborations' with her vocals and other bands' instrumentations doesn't so much hamper me liking the sound of it, but it would at least make me hesitant about going to a show, not knowing if there would be any sort of cohesive band. It would also halt a blind buy of her future music, as she tries to actually learn to play instruments - which she said she is now doing. Who knows if she'll live up to the hype and praise she's being given or will justify some people's distain. Time will tell.

dude, you should really go back and revisit.  I didn't like it at first, but now, I think it may be their strongest effort.  The production is tremendous, and the songs are all so, so solid. 

I know it's impossible to compete with when you first heard Red Forest and ATEBTS but man, Bones is fucking killer. 

If any Gifts From Enola fans here also with a tape deck, Zegema Beach Records from BC, Canada did a small run of their 4 full albums 2006-2013 on cassette. 
There were /25 swirl and /5 TP gone before I even got word, but /45 more 'regular' sets. I bought from bandcamp and paid $15 shipping, which also quickly sold out, but clicking around today, I found they still have some on their website for $32.50 + $6 shipping to US.

I'm sure the new Celeste and Panopticon will be making my list as well once they're released.
 

Same. It’s like they said, “here you throw this away so we don’t have to”

I'm trying, man.  The vinyl connect I was negotiating was initially only interested in Cale:Drew and Solace, but I'm hoping they'll be interested enough to do Subsets too. 

This is literally my #1 mission in life before i die, to make this happen and connect the right people. 
 
dude right?  Like...... i can't even. 

I hope that their remark on vinyl pertains to both SOS and C:D .  If Evpatoria can press Golevka, there’s no reason why Jakob couldn’t make these 2 classics happen.

Unofficial official update:

Jakob setlist 12/9:

Blind Them With Science
Magna Carta
Pneumonic
Lonesome
Jimmy Hoffa
The Diffusion of our Inherent Situation
Aural
I'm On Your Side
ReWild - NEW SONG
Consonance - NEW SONG
Ageena
Oran Mor
Resolve

THREE songs from Subsets!  and TWO from Cale:Drew!

More:
"Going to add Malachite for tonight's set at our hometown gig"

"No Recordings yet but may have something for people to listen to early next year"
"Yeah, those Subsets songs are great, forgot how good they are to be honest.  We'll get onto the vinyl thing when we're close to having this album finished."

From Jeff Boyle (Guitar).  He's so gracious and chill.  Really, really friendly dude. 
 

Anyone buy that Ranges chessboard yet?

Golevka /EP is up at A1KA
2 variants, $38. I went with the 2nd
Finally got to use some of my 1200 points for free shipping.
Really nice this finally happened 🙂

@abovetheearth gifted me the lone 3 digital tracks years ago from Ozean. The world is not yet full enough of this type of ethereal dreamy pop for me, but somehow I missed Moon Sounds Records vinyl treatment in 2017. It appears that the 12"  (/150 Black  /150 Blue) are going for moon money on discogs,  with a 55 have to 555 want ratio for this unknown, teenage ephemeral band.
Numero records has picked up their 'catalog' and says a 12" will be forthcoming in 2024. I will try to not to miss out this time.

Saw Holy Fwan tonight, they were great! I get to cancel my Zia order now too because they had Realms vinyl with them.
 
Low Heaven was rad, and Cara Cara were different, but pretty good too! If you're able to catch the last couple dates on this tour it's worth it.

Finally on vinyl, but shipping from Italy hurts (if any of the band members sell more on discogs, I'll post here, it was $40 ppd vs $50 and they'll sign if you ask, super nice guys). 
I never tire of this album, but understand the naysayers for nugaze that sound too much like _______ fill in the blank.
Several tracks keep that Loveless sound going that you don't want to end, but like Ringo Deathstarr, they also manage to put their own stamp on the music. Yes, I have their CD too  
La Casa Al Mare - This Astro .... finally on vinyl, almost 10 years later

Audrey Fall Mitau Vinyl!   Thanks for the heads up Gumbo!!!

Why are we still using PVC sleeves in 2023? Jesus Christ, have not enough records been ruining from off-gasing? 

Yeah! The box did NOT disappoint. I'll have to snap some pics and share them on the forum some day. Honestly the inability to upload pics make it a bit more of a pain to share images here. I'm up to 67 test pressings, too. 

Congrats! That's a big one down. I had a copy from the 2013 Fundraiser that GF had, and a more diehard Jakob fan than me from AUS wanted it BAD, so I ended up selling it to him less than a month later.
 
Glad to see you are still on the GF mission. Did he ever get you the custom-made box with all the Freddy Points you racked up?

I scored a Solace test pressing today! If you guys don't care no one else will, so I came here to share the news cuz I'm excited.
