simple_torture Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 Pulling information from a few different sources for this (originally saw it listed on this site, which is a great source for Oldham updates), and they don't all match up exactly (with release dates and such), but here's what this looks like: This Italian order page details that these songs come from Peel Sessions recorded between 1993 and 1999; it lists the release date as 1/22/16 and lists the tracklist as follows: 1 . (I Was Drunk At The) Pulpit 2 . Death To Everyone 3 . Arise, Therefore 4 . Jolly Fives 5 . Beezle 6 . One wildcard (2-15) 7 . When Thy Song Flows Through Me 8 . The Houseboat (O How I Enjoy The Light) 9 . Trudy Dies 10 . The Cross 11 . Stable Will 12 . The Idol On The Bar You can pre-order it from amazon.co.uk with the same release date: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Pond-Scum-VINYL-Bonnie-Prince-Billy/dp/B019KF6N88 There's a listing on the US Amazon page (only US link I've found) which lists a 1/29/16 release date: http://www.amazon.com/Pond-Scum-BILLY-BONNIE-PRINCE/dp/B019KF6N88/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1451615220&sr=8-1&keywords=bonnie+billy Hopefully there will be other info soon, and a US pre-order!

warhenrecords Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 Sweet hopefully we see a bunch of Oldham releases in 2016 No doubt. 2015 was a slower year for him I feel like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simple_torture Posted January 1, 2016 Author Share Posted January 1, 2016 Sweet hopefully we see a bunch of Oldham releases in 2016 There's another record coming this year, a collaboration with Bitchin' Bajas called "Epic Jammers and Little Fortunate Ditties," but there's very little info out there about it.

simple_torture Posted January 6, 2016 Author Share Posted January 6, 2016 GO - http://www.dragcity.com/products/pond-scum enjoy Thanks for the link! I ordered, but didn't get an e-mail confirmation...it's almost noon in Chicago, wake up, Drag City! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt79rome89 Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 Has anyone ordered his records from Drag City and also received the limited edition freebies that usually come out in the first batch? Record stores usually have something extra: 7", 10", cd, cap etc. but not sure if DC pre-orders usually get that stuff too. It's hard sometimes to track those down in stores. One record store even took the bonus poster out before selling to me once. I didn't realize until later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never really expecting anything extra, so it's a nice bonus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aphasias Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 I got a bonus 7" with Wonder Show Of The World, a simple 1 sheet calendar with What The Brothers Sang and a do-rag with Wolfroy Goes To Town direct from Drag City. I was also able to get the bonus CD with The Letting Go but only by email request. The recent bonus 12" with Singers Grave I had to hunt down a copy of from a record shop even after preordering early and emailing DC.

simple_torture Posted January 8, 2016 Author Share Posted January 8, 2016 For promotion, BPB has released a re-worked version of "Rich Wife Full of Happiness," which isn't on Pond Scum, but which is "similar in tone" to the collection.

simple_torture Posted January 21, 2016 Author Share Posted January 21, 2016 Amazon has this listed as being released on 2/5 now; not sure if that'll affect direct orders from Drag City. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simple_torture Posted January 22, 2016 Author Share Posted January 22, 2016 I hope everyone pre-ordered; today is release day, and this is now listed as "Out of Stock" on Drag City. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JacobMckinley Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 It's weird that My pre-order from Amazon still says releases Feb 5th. Not to mention this wasn't received at my local shop that normally gets everything he releases. I wonder what the deal is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simple_torture Posted February 1, 2016 Author Share Posted February 1, 2016 Did anyone who pre-ordered this from Drag City receive it yet? I had some problems with my order--it didn't show up in my order history for some reason--but Drag City assured me that everything would be okay. I've seen it in stores, but I don't want to snag a copy, try to cancel my order, and have it show up the next day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simple_torture Posted February 1, 2016 Author Share Posted February 1, 2016 I received mine last week. They sent an email when it was shipped (no tracking though). They've never done tracking as long as I've ordered from them; but I never even got their bare-bones shipping message. Off to customer service I go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simple_torture Posted February 2, 2016 Author Share Posted February 2, 2016 Turns out Drag City had marked my order as "possibly fraudulent" and didn't send me a copy in their initial shipment. For those who can't find it locally and didn't get a pre-order in, they told me they're going to get more copies in soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simple_torture Posted March 14, 2016 Author Share Posted March 14, 2016 We never made a thread for it, but for those of us who ordered the BPB collaboration with Bitchin' Bajas: mine shipped! March is flying by. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warhenrecords Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Awesome, haven't gotten shipping notice yet, but I wouldn't be surprised if it wound up on my doorstep before I ever got a notice from DC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warhenrecords Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 LOL just checked my email and there was a DC shipping confirmation email. Carry on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
