sunkilmoonfan Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 Originally a free download and a limited cassette, Grimes' debut, Geidi Primes, is going to be issued on vinyl for the first time on February 5, 2016, on Arbutus Records. It is not listed on the label website yet, so no further details as to pressing number, weight, etc. Description: It has a strange air of being created unconsciously while the artist herself was asleep. It is a vastly intriguing set of pop tunes highlighted by its amazing fifth and sixth songs: "Avi" and "Feyd Rautha Dark Heart", which are each frighteningly reminiscent of an unaccountable psychic experience you may have never had. It seems like an album made for very tall people about what it's like to be very small. It calls to mind the glowering of a child king amidst the many vestments and decorations of his coronation. Listening to Geidi Primes is what its like to suddenly realize you are being watched while taking a cold shower... on the moon. Available for preorder: Amazon Bull Moose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGhostOfRandySavage Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 Halfaxa should be coming as well per arbutus records. I thought they'd go up at the same time from what they were saying, but looks like nope. Edit: Went ahead and PO'd with The Cure - Disintegration since I still somehow don't have a copy of that, and free shipping over $25 on Bullmoose.

Holding off to see if Bullmoose puts up POs for the Halfaxa and Darkbloom together. $36 shipped, total, for the two of them would be just tops.

Sounds like you ordered it through VNYL and choose #dogshit as your #mood. rabbitclock 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGhostOfRandySavage Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 lol I can't find anything that says it's limited. I'm kind of curious now too. I didn't see anything about them being limited, but that doesn't mean they aren't Sebastian never mentioned them being limited when I was emailing with him, so I'd expect they pressed a decent number of them.

radiatorhums Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Got my copy of Halfaxa in yesterday and I'm a tad disappointed that they decided to make it a single LP and drop a few tracks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Got my copy of Halfaxa in yesterday and I'm a tad disappointed that they decided to make it a single LP and drop a few tracks. Yeah, I noticed that too. I picked a copy up from my local shop today. Anyone else's download code only include have 6 tracks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGhostOfRandySavage Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Got my copy of Halfaxa in yesterday and I'm a tad disappointed that they decided to make it a single LP and drop a few tracks. Boooooo. I didn't realize this when I ordered it. That's a real bummer. Heartbeats is a great song too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I'll never pay what the OP is going for, but I might have skipped this knowing that it's missing some songs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samsies on the skippage. I'm super bummed now. I was so excited for this too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiatorhums Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Samsies on the skippage. I'm super bummed now. I was so excited for this too! It's frustrating to me because it doesn't really make sense. My guess is that it was a cost cutting measure, even though most people would rather have a proper reissue and pay more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
