Hey guys, so I wanted to make a place for all of the A Thousand Arms stuff to be centralized since they're starting to become quite the operational center for things. Currently there are 2 brand new album pre-orders up and available: Ranges - The Ascensionist 2XLP (180g Milky Clear with Bone A Side/B Side vinyl. Limited to 125 copies. Deluxe Edition limited to 33 copies.) https://athousandarms.store/collections/ranges Appalaches - Cycles 2xLP (Solid Red vinyl with gatefold packaging. Limited to 100 copies through A Thousand Arms. ) https://athousandarms.store/collections/athousandarmsmusic/products/appalaches-cycles-2xlp Other album pre-orders that are quickly selling out: TRNA - Lose Yourself To Find Peace ( 180g 33 RPM Black in Ultra Clear Color in Color with Black Smoke and Bone, White and Milky Clear splatter vinyl /159) https://athousandarms.store/collections/elusivesound/products/trna-lose-yourself-to-find-peace-obsidian-brume-edition-lp PG.Lost - It's Not Me, It's You! (Clear & Bourdeaux red /250) https://athousandarms.store/collections/pelagicrecords/products/pg-lost-its-not-me-its-you-2xlp A Thousand Arms also now has distribution for Kapitan Platte, Pelagic, Aloud Music, DUNK records, and Elusive Sound. Check the website for the full list of distro items, and pick them up before they are gone. Additionally, A Thousand Arms is the USA distributor for the Australian contingent, which includes merch/records for We Lost The Sea, Dumbsaint, and Sleepmakeswaves. Have fun guys! I will be updating this thread as new distro stock arrives for them, as well as any new album pre-order announcements. A Thousand Arms has opened up their own record label wing in addition to the screen-printing operation (look for their work with the new The End of the Ocean shirts!) so I am guessing we will start to see more albums popping up soon.

No info so far, but the label posted a teaser picture so I wanted to get this going. Unfortunately I am no longer able to offer group buys from Elusive Sound. Thank you for everybody who helped participate in these for the last couple years. It was a lot of fun, a lot of work, and we were able to snag some great records. Stay tuned! Pre-orders go LIVE on Tuesday, October 1st at 20:00 CEST (2:00pm EST)

Next Elusive Sound pre-order cycle begins soon! There will be 2 releases. TRNA will NOT be coming now. You should know what the other release is; it'll be officially announced Sunday/Monday. Bruit - Monolith. FFO: Arms and Sleepers. I literally don't know any other artists like this. "We're happy to announce our next pre-order cycle with this great, first variant of Bruit's EP! Presented in a heavyweight gatefold featuring the first use of spot UV ever for Elusive Sound, this 180g-vinyl LP shows off the endless possibilities of color combinations.

Bruit standard: Bruit deluxe: Ravena deluxe: Ravena standard:

Elusive Sound will release Blankenberge - Radiogaze on two variants this Friday!

https://elusive-sound.com/glasir-release-new-dark-age/ Elusive Sound proudly presents “New Dark Age“, the long-awaited debut album from American post-rock/post-metal trio Glasir. Recorded and mixed by Sam Striker at Native Darkness Productions and mastered by Randy Cordner at Beast Mansion, “New Dark Age” is the follow-up to their critically acclaimed 2015 EP “Unborn”, the very first Elusive Sound release. This incredible 3-piece from Dallas, Texas, have crafted a powerfully evocative album where their heavy siege cannon is unleashed and blasts us into a blackened world, where sound resonates in decayed city shells and life submerges in stagnant pools of death. We are one with the shadows hidden midst the smoke hung in a haze that ascends hollow towering walls of steel. It obscures a blood red sun we cannot see yet feel it’s oppressive heat searing down like the breath of hell. This is our tomorrow, a new dark age. Featuring full artwork by Alex CF, “New Dark Age” will be released by Elusive Sound digitally on August 31 and on vinyl at a date yet to be announced. Full album out now, available for download and streaming: https://glasir.bandcamp.com/album/new-dark-age Vinyl TBD, but keep an eye here for group-buy information. I will be conducting the Deluxe group-buy from Elusive themselves, and A Thousand Arms will be getting the non-deluxe variants for USA residents. You can always get a non-deluxe in the group-buy from me to guarantee a copy. As with all Elusive Sound releases, this will sell out, and it will be incredible. Stay tuned!

Elusive Sound is very proud to announce its first double vinyl release: Silent Whale Becomes A Dream - Requiem The critically acclaimed conceptional album of the France-based band was released on digital format in late 2017 and will now see a full media release on Elusive Sound.

Finally, we are happy to present Requiem by Silent Whale Becomes A Dream in the prime variant: Featuring a 100% Swiss made bookcase-style sleeve of the highest quality, made of buckram and carton with hot foil lettering and numbering. With a limitation of only 50 units, it is the most limited variant available. The bookcase-style sleeve is the result of months of conception, testing and careful execution.
