drewberinger Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 both the newbury and CT variants match up really nicely with the cover art Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweaters&pearlsrecs Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 This arrived late last week, the CT version, both clear with the tiniest bits of color swirled in, nice. The first disc is killer, keep going back to it. The second one feels like the tracks are a psych take on his style; more drawn out, slower feedback stuff, but overall fantastic record - more of the same as Oshin. Lots of packaging, random words on messy paintings, not sure how much that stuff adds to this but I support any expanded edition of his stuff.

kidamnesiac Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Caught night 2 of their LA residency last night. Some of the best individual musicianship I've seen in one band for quite some time. These humans are completely dedicated to the craft. So much energy, humility, and posititvity. Not an act to miss if you have any interest at all. pushbacktosquare 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dvv Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 STILL don't have my CT copy, this is so lame. Just here to vent.yesterday I emailed CT about my order and they replied saying they haven't received all the vinyl yet so there's still orders that haven't shipped because of that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pukebileforever Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Ya, looks like my tracking is active but they fucked up the label so it's on hold somewhere in NY, which means I probably won't get it for a looong time. Like, I love this label and everything but they don't seem to be so good at this end of things, which is disappointing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like, I love this label and everything but they don't seem to be so good at this end of things, which is disappointing. My last order with CT, I got a tracking number and order for someone else... evidently this happens often enough where several folks chimed in and said Don't Worry, you'll get your order, this happens all the time. They were right. I'm still waiting on my CT version, too. Going to upload some pics of my Newbury in a minute or two Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RadDonut Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Wait what? My CT version looks like the Newbury version of the pics you posted Don. Did I miss something in the thread where there was a mistake with variants? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadDonut Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Whoops! Never mind. The disc I thought was yellow is actually red and my blue disc has some yellow in it. Carry on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drds89 Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 The hype sticker on the Newbury doesn't match the vinyl - which makes them much more collectible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

downisthenewup87 Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 If anybody comes across any of the varients at retail price (what was retail on these btw), please let me know. Wasn't crazy about Oshin so I let this pass me over... Only to find that I really, really like this album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

downisthenewup87 Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Thanks guys. Was on a droid, which is why I couldn't find it. Got lucky today at Amoeba and found the Special Edition burried behind a stack of the standard edition. poweredbytrust 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zdkaiser Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 My CT special edition LP is warped on sides C and D.Anyone else have this issue? It's particularly noticeable on Healthy Moon. This is about the 6th or 7th album from CT I have received that is warped. And it aint my Rega's tonearm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I have had terrible luck with CT's warping rate, to the point I have dialled back on what I buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LPs I have received from CT that were warped: Wild Nothing - Gemini (Black) Wild Nothing - Nocturne (Blue) Wild Nothing - Empty Estate (Red) Widowspeak - Almanac (White) DIIV - Is the Is Are (Special Edition) They replaced Gemini and Nocturne for me. I'll give them that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
