Thom Yorke - Tomorrow's Modern Boxes ( Deluxe White Vinyl )

[Waters]

Shoot them an email. I had a similar issue.

Oh cool, glad they are addressing this- thanks for the tip

It FINALLY came today.  Today being my birthday and all I can't complain one bit about the wait

 

Got mine yesterday too. Guess we'll call Radiohead a draw

 

Happy belated Birthday btw

Anybody have a little splotch or two of black/darkness on their vinyl?  It plays fine on those sections I'm thinking it just comes with the fact that it's so darn white.

Sounds like your copy is a bit evil

[TheGloaming]

Also, has anybody noticed the inscription on the dead wax on side A???  It reads : "Villain am I none, therefore farewell; I see thee know me not"

 

From Romeo and Juliet I believe.

Sometimes colored pressings get mixed in with the black pressings. It's perfectly normal.

yeah mine has a fair bit of black "smokeyness" to it.. looks great.. pretty solid pressing.  Records arrived in mint shaped.. two flimsy mailers taped together = one solid mailer.

 

album is a good fit for vinyl. enjoying the album way more on this format.

 

This is kinda interesting... turns out this release is a bit of a class project for the MBA students at Oxford .  http://www.stereogum.com/1712341/the-next-radiohead-album-may-get-an-unconventional-release-too/news/

Works out to like $49 with US shipping (after VAT is removed). Basically the same as the original pre-order price.

my math gives me $57.11 (incl us shipping not incl. import taxes).. 31+4.50 gbp to usd ...  but know what, dont matter cause I already got mine, and love it like a long lost child.

Do people get hit with US customs duty charges on UK packages? I never have, but maybe just lucky...

I've ordered a ton of stuff from the UK and Germany since the late 90's and I've never once paid any fees. But I know a bunch of people who have gotten screwed receiving items I've sent.

Received my replacement bag and inner sleeve this week. The bag is perfect, however, the inner sleeve is crushed. Thanks sandbag.

Pre-order up on amazon…for $82. Hopefully this is a standard pressing and a non-import pre-order will show up.

It says "Import" in the title, so I'm guessing it is the one that's already been released.  Still, what's the deal with the $30 markup?

Amazon.co.uk link. 36 pounds.

 

"Tomorrow's Modern Boxes is a new eight-track record from Thom Yorke. A record born of silver darkness, pressed onto heavyweight 180g white vinyl completed with undersize 75mm centre labels, housed within heavy white board inner and outer sleeves. These are printed with a metallic silver laminate then multi-tone black and a striking neon green; the whole is enclosed in a bespoke anti-static shield bag - a metallised laminated material usually used by the electronics industry for protecting components from electrostatic interference. The bag is printed with neon green on both sides, and has a resealable grip closure."

 

So it's the same version.

Has anyone received their order from the second pressing yet? I believe it was supposed to ship early November.

RPM

[stl_ben]

Still waiting for my 2nd pressing too....and looks like 3rd pressing is what current orders will be.

[apeman]

Looks like the second batch is going out now. I got shipping confirmation for it earlier today.

Curious to see if there's any differentiating features between releases...

[stl_ben]

doh....got my notice less than an hour after posting.  From others who got second presses, there is 0 differences.
