niblips Posted April 2, 2014 Author Share Posted April 2, 2014 I sent them a quick email yesterday evening asking if i was one of the first 400 pre-orders and received a msg back today confirming that i was. That surprises me though because i didn't find out about it until about 8 hours after it was announced. Now to wait and see which variant arrives..... chiefwahoo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExtraFox Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 I got an email today just after noon EST saying they hadn't quite hit 400. Hopefully they still hadn't when I ordered an hour later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluessinger Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 The book's incredible. Just like this record will be. The one Andrew Earles did is also great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niblips Posted April 3, 2014 Author Share Posted April 3, 2014 Sorry to go off topic but has anyone read his book? Thinking of picking it up. the book was a good read. I enjoyed it and passed it on to a friend, who enjoyed it and passed it on as well.... by the time i get it back i`ll read it again When i read it the first time i kept going to my ipod to play the songs he was talking about in the book.... it added a lot to the reading.

xbpr Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 His last few albums have all been pretty solid (District Line and beyond) I'm expecting more of the same from the new one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yancey47 Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Book is really cool. He doesn't shy away from admitting fault in many matters and he also isn't shy about championing his triumphs. A great read for fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glass realms Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 I think it's a good album. It basically continue where Silver Age left off, if maybe a little harder sounding. It's definitely still Sugar-esque. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niblips Posted May 30, 2014 Author Share Posted May 30, 2014 cool! Mine shipped on May 23rd from Chapel Hill NC on route to Ontario Canada but as of yesterday it was in Miami FL..... i guess i'll get it after it gets some sun and sandy beaches.... hope it's not warped from the heat when it arrives Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twhite1221 Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Mine arrived today as well. There isn't much marbling in the yellow but that's not an issue for me. I will be spinning it this evening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LIGMA_BALLZ Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Picked this up at Academy Records in Brooklyn. Surprised to find this on yellow. Bump for a good album. Yea I found a copy of this a few months ago at my record store in seattle, I though these were only limited to a couple hundred/pre-order only.... this album rips Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niblips Posted November 17, 2014 Author Share Posted November 17, 2014 it may have changed, it was initially supposed to be 400 in either yellow or brown, in the end they were all yellow... they may have increased the number as well.

fuckinandsuckinandtouchin Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 I think the first 400 were limited. They may have sent a few out to record stores though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
