Thanks for the info Don!  I'll probably order through AC30 for now and cancel if it shows up anywhere with cheaper shipping.  Hoping this leads to more Air Formation vinyl down the road too!

Unfortunately never. 😑
I did get Near Miss from Amazon.uk and shipping was only $4.50. Didn't see vinyl for this one.... yet. If it sells quickly, AC30 often has a "2nd press" all ready to go.
Norman records used to get a box or 2 and shipping is at least 1/2 that of Club AC30 (which has the highest shipping ever!) but I don't see any there yet either. Norman still might though? Keep checking back. That's how I got most of my Ringo Deathstarr.
Struck out at Banquet, Rough Trade and Piccadilly, too.
Stickfiguredistro on discogs sometimes gets some AC30 releases.

New FVNERALS LP - 500 on black, 500 on black/grey splatter

They also have represses of the first two LPs on black.

For my “moment of clarity,” the song is not bad (not my thing at all (well, maybe would’ve been in 1998)), just commenting aesthetics.

The new EF record is a total blast from the past. So good. Reminds me of Yndi Halda from the glory days. Anyone else hear it?

Not at all, dead quiet in between tracks and the portions not "noise."

Understandable.  For what it’s worth, there’s 2 comments I’ve spied so far (1 on IG, 1 on Discogs, could be the same person) which have said that Xuvetyn sounds excellent.  I guess Scott was selling copies last week at Astrobrite shows, so a few folks have had their hands on copies for a minute.  Given that the music spans across 2 LPs, I’d like to believe those early takes aren’t just fanboy chatter.

2nd time through - no "warble" 😰

Been teased on social media for a minute by Scott.  I keep waiting for more info to get posted, and didn’t realize it was on Discogs already.  (Nice catch.)  Good to know they’ll ship almost immediately after being able to order… which should be soon.  Scott claims it’s going to be a big release and widely available, supposedly.

@drds89 thanks for the heads up. So I hope mine will arrive soon as well. It was a long wait for sure. I wouldn't have thought the variant to come out THIS amazing though:

If you’re stressing it that much, treat it like “seconds” so there’s no chancing it.  Take no prisoners.

Both sides of mine are off center, but I don't seem to notice any warble.  Could be my setup or my ears

Goodness gracious, Bliss Fields: Slowly, Forever from Acrobat Unstable showed up today! 11 months from order date, but it made it. Almost through with side B and no issues, sounds decent for clear with splatter.
 
edit: 20% off use "SLOWLYFOREVER" on orders. Also, love the search tag "cough syrup" on bandcamp 🤣

You know you’re in for a good time when a service provider has to have a status page.

I mocked it up in my cart just to see.  About $150 or so? 😕 The craziest part is that the standard 2LP is only about $42 PPD which is not shabby at all for an imported double LP… which implies to me that they’re not price gouging.  The packaging for that deluxe edition must be top quality or truly next-level – even nicer than the photos suggest.  At least I’d hope, at $150.

I couldn't resist, it looks really well done, and it's my favorite of there's. Not cheap though.

Really glad they chose to reissue the og cover art 

Saw Grivo when they were here with Slow Crush and they were awesome 

The album is incredible as expected. I got to see them in Philly last night and it was a treat. If you haven't seen them yet, make sure you can the next chance you get.

I thought it sounded pretty good! My copy was a little dished, not sure if that was an isolated incident but it plays fine and there’s def some dynamics. Wouldn’t go so far as to say it’s my best sounding record but I don’t have any complaints 

I missed out on the pre-order for this thinking it wouldn't sell out (oops!) but luckily found a copy at a local store last week. I gotta say: it sounds fucking fantastic! The three set LP is a bit annoying IMO (because of all the flipping) but I like that they kept all the artwork for each separate EP. Some of these tracks are Mogwai's best, it's so nice to finally have them in my collection. 

The magical chaos of Christmas Steps playing during the first big snowfall is what it's all about. 

If money and space were no object, I would have their whole discography.  I don't think they needed Albini to do A New Nature. Mucho excite for this track with Nadja!
