Blumplum Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 My Amazon UK ( ) just arrived today as well. Can't wait to get home and spin it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parkinglot Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 The guy at my record store was a big Sigur Ros fan, had OG copies of all their records, but was completely unaware of the ( ) reissue. They had Von and AB. I'm assuming ( ) is Europe only right now? Hence why everyone is ordering from Amazon UK? I know the answer will be in here somewhere...sorry.

Blumplum Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 I ordered my copy of ( ) from Amazon.co.uk and it finally arrived today. Immediately threw on C/D as that's where most of the criticism has been with the pressing and fortunately my copy is without issue. Must be a few good copies circulating... Mine sounds perfect as well, no surface noise whatsoever. Really glad I didn't end up canceling my order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inlimbo Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Mine sounds perfect as well, no surface noise whatsoever. Really glad I didn't end up canceling my order. Same here. Man this album takes me back to simpler times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 I haven't got a chance to listen to ( ) out yet but my copy came pretty messed up in those flimsy record mailers. Usually they are fine in those but alas, the record didn't withstand the 5000 mile journey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stravinsky Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Already messaged amazon uk. They said they sent them by some carrier I've never heard of and that they're held up in transit somewhere and to wait until march 3rd. If I haven't seen it be then I'm supposed to get back in contact with them. Then again...the person have me a couple different conflicting pieces of info, and was less than helpful. Please, by all means get in contact with them and get angry with them. Neither album has arrived for me...have you had any luck? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serious business Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Neither album has arrived for me...have you had any luck? Didn't arrive. Got back in contact with them and they said they'd send out a replacement...gave me an estimated date of delivery of MARCH 25. I kindly asked them to expedite my shipping, as I'd already been waiting quite some time and got a new date of March 9. This person was much more helpful and accommodating than the last one.

serious business Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Update: My copy of ( ) did finally arrive yesterday late in the day. Pretty gnarly corner ding on the bottom right. Since they've already sent out a replacement, as amazon and I both assumed the other one was lost in the mail...I'll see how the next one looks/sounds when it gets here. Some noise on side C of this copy, not unbearable though. The new one actually has tracking, too. Left Philly today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shinji Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Whoa, Agaetis Byrjun sounds beautiful. No surface noise on mine at all, though I did deep clean it. I love the cardstock jacket, silver printing, and the fact that it comes with a CD. $24 at my shop here in the US was worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe on another pressing I saw for this in store had the same jacket as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsgoodtobefree Posted March 8, 2015 Author Share Posted March 8, 2015 I think the jacket is cool, wish it was a gatefold though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parkinglot Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Yeah, not complaining, it does look good, and the sleeves are nice too. Without reading through here, is there any timeline for when ( ) will hit North American stores? I can only afford to buy records locally now with our shit dollar.

TheGhostOfRandySavage Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 Did anyone who wants ( ) not order a copy and not mind a pretty decent sized corner bend in the lower right corner? Hit me up, I'll cut you a deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottyrobotty Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 Sigur Rós would get more of money money if they'd start pressing variants. That, or I'd have to stop being a completionist. I hope they don't press more variants, I have no self control. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
