turnstiles Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 Will pay 50$ for come come. Mountain goats are my favorite, and I doubt they'll have any close to Chicago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drewberinger Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 picked up the deluxe earlier today - disc 1 is a translucent orange/gold disc 2 is a clear green with black smoke deal and the bonus 12" is a clear red with black smoke - very nice package overall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisapple Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 So it appears that my preorder from Merge didn't take. I didn't get an email (I originally chalked this up to all the website problems they were having that day) and the order does not show in my account history. Anyone else run into this? I emailed them but haven't heard anything back yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
endlessslog Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 I have the e-mail from paypal but as far as I can see no e-mail from merge when I ordered. this is the first time I've ordered from them. so I have no clue if that's normal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisapple Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 My order definitely didn't go through but after contacting Merge they hooked me up and helped me place an order for the deluxe. Merge is awesome! esbe and hobbesthecat 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jerseydave77 Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 I see Other Music in NYC has the Deluxe. If anyone is desperate to have one hit me up and I will see about making a trip tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ratbrain Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 loving the deluxe version, mine just showed up this morning. "Blood Capsules" is alright but "Dub Capsules" is where it's at. i thought the bonus 12" was pressed on black at first but after holding it up to the light, it's translucent red filled almost completely with black "smoke." pretty cool looking.

chrisapple Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 If anyone missed out on the deluxe, there are copies available here: https://www.indievinylden.com/store/p359/The_Mountain_Goats-_Beat_the_Champ%21_Deluxe_3LPs_Colored_Vinyl_.html 15% off with code Weekend15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisapple Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 Also, free shipping over $50 so tack on Modest Mouse: https://www.indievinylden.com/store/p177/Modest_Mouse-_Strangers_to_Ourselves.html Or Death Cab: https://www.indievinylden.com/store/p319/Death_Cab_for_Cutie-_Kintsugi_%5B180g_Gold_%26_White_Vinyl%5D_.html Or anything else to dodge shipping charges.

cdcart Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 Good grab at Indie Vinyl- looks like when one is bought they put up another. The 15% is nice too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
endlessslog Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 Does Merge send e-mail notifications when orders are shipped, and are people receiving their copies directly from Merge by now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiatorhums Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 Does Merge send e-mail notifications when orders are shipped, and are people receiving their copies directly from Merge by now?

radiatorhums Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Just finished listening to this and I really enjoyed it. Haven't dug too deep into the lyrics, but it's a bit goofy (in a good way). Based on that initial listen, I think this is my favourite Mountain Goats album since Heretic Pride. I'm looking forward to some future listens.

ratbrain Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 So far I'm not digging it as much as All Eternals Deck or Transcendental Youth, but I really loved both of those. It's fun though, definitely not a bad album and I'll never be mad at hearing a sunset flip mentioned in song. Also, Jon Wurster is a really good drummer.

ryantark Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 This was my introduction to the band. I like his voice, extremely similar to Weakerthans. The first song is gorgeous, drew me in. The first half is flawless. Second half has some highlights. I grabbed some stickers from my local store. Fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klown78 Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Norman Records and Amazon UK have a few copies of the 3lp set. Not toooo badly priced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm opposite on this. I loved Blood Capsules, but Dub capsules doesn't really do much for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
