Derek™ Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 The total cost to get it shipped to the U.S. ain't pretty... but if it helps to mitigate the ugly shipping rates, I'll glad pair up with 1 or 2 more U.S. buyers. Individually, it's about $50 PPD from Sasan's door to mine. It'll be interesting to see how much we could get that price down, in theory. Something closer to $40 PPD would be perfect.

mrewest Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Yeah $50 is a bit steep. I wish there was a pic of the color because it sounds awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek™ Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 I've been waiting on SH to put AHBF out on some translucent teal vinyl for a long time already. Took the words right out of my mouth. Translucent gold isn't a bad choice to go with the color scheme, either. It's such a trivial thing... but when an album is that vibrant and colorful, it just feels weird to watch it spin around on black wax. Yeah $50 is a bit steep. I wish there was a pic of the color because it sounds awesome. Trying to think of what "lime" variants I own, and drawing a blank. But even if it turned out to resemble a coke bottle green, I think it'd be infinitely more attractive than a solid yellow. That flavor comes out to $23.49. The UK green would probably be another $20 or so if we could group up some buyers. And after revisiting the single a few more times, I'm pretty comfortable with splurging on a preferred colorway.

CaptainHerbalLife Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 The Helm's Alee LP also came on lime. Here's a small photo of it. It's going to be translucent though so a little less flashy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burkazoid Posted February 9, 2015 Author Share Posted February 9, 2015 I wonder if they'll have some lime vinyl with them on tour (seeing them in Belfast in June). £21 delivered even just in the UK is pretty steep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm...if we can work something off of this where a bulk purchase can be made & shipped to the US for redistribution, I'd be willing to head that. Obviously that's a ways off, but if there is anyway at all to get copies of this in the $30s, that would be rad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadDonut Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 That single is pretty sweet. I've never listened to these guys so I'll have to do that and also think about getting the US variant sometime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely a mood thing for me, but absolutely worth checking out their whole catalogue. And their Audiotree session is a must. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that's even assuming that Burk is willing to help us American VCers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that's even assuming that Burk is willing to help us American VCers. I'd definitely be willing to help out, but I'm concerned that the Belfast date is a good bit into their UK tour, so if they have lime vinyl on tour, there might be none left by then. A big risk I reckon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A big risk I reckon. True. But at least it's not a tour exclusive. 1,000 copies would be really impressive to sell both on tour and through pre-orders over there.

The Vool Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Yeah, think so too...won't sell out too fast. I'm also holding back on ordering because it's just too expensive IMO for a single LP...need to give it a listen first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burkazoid Posted February 10, 2015 Author Share Posted February 10, 2015 Cool, well I'm certainly open to helping out if they have the lime copies on tour with them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainHerbalLife Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Liking this new sound a lot. Sounding huge, like the first album did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek™ Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 Liking this new sound a lot. Sounding huge, like the first album did. Rory posted an album update to his blog, with some words about the new record. In it, he shares this little bit of info that I took great joy in reading: It feels like this record wouldn’t exist with out what we did on All Hail, but Heirs has taken another step towards something new again. Its sort of like the same chocolate bar but this album has a way higher cocoa content! All Hail was covered in popping candy and multi coloured sprinkles and Heirs is like an 85% bar of Green and Blacks. Basically exactly what I wanted to hear. I won't count my eggs before they hatch, but it's sounding like even Rory acknowledges All Hail as an experimental, off-the-wall, "fun" record... with newer material being a little more wholesome and solid. For those who haven't heard it yet, there's a new track available to stream, too. Between this and Run Home, I feel like we're in for a pretty solid record. Wasps.

Burkazoid Posted March 27, 2015 Author Share Posted March 27, 2015 "The clear vinyl has landed in Belfast". So is this the lime variant? Looks like it since it's the only one on the UK store they link to. They said they'll have it on tour with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek™ Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Beautiful. I was hoping for something more along the lines of clear or coke bottle clear, and I think that looks great. I still haven't pre-ordered, yet, because I'm stuck on scoring that variant. Going to try my luck with a Discogs seller or something – I really can't see it being that difficult to track down.
