backpackoat Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 (edited) Represses of Wintersleep's first three records, Wintersleep, Untitled, and Welcome to the Night Sky have finally been repressed. https://www.dinealonestore.com/collections/wintersleep The colored variants are limited to just 150 apiece, so get on it before their social media accounts post about it! Otherwise, black vinyl doesn't seem to be limited and is 180g. All records come with a 7 inch of b-sides. Shipping absolutely sucks if you're in the USA. Ships in May. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________ New Wintersleep album March 4, 2016. Preorders include either black or pink/green split vinyl, shirts, prints, cassettes, or some combination thereof. Released by Dine Alone. Unfortunately the vinyl doesn't ship until after the release date. https://wintersleep.store-08.com/pre-order/ First song released, Amerika: Sounds so good. Really excited for this one. Love the album art too. Edited February 14, 2018 by backpackoat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostTrail Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Really excited for this; the new track sounds like a step back in the right direction. Wasn't too keen on the last two albums. The fact that this is released through Dine Alone makes me weary that this won't be shipping for 6 months though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that this is released through Dine Alone makes me weary that this won't be shipping for 6 months though. I have a feeling that it won't face delays like the bundles - that was them re-releasing old material without some kind of urgent deadline to get stock out at a release date. I am guessing that the March release date is connected, hopefully, to an actual physical release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GhostTrail Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 You need to check out their first three albums for sure! Here's a good starting point from their 2005 Untitled album, and probably my favorite track by them: KingTacoMunster 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidney Crosley Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Not a huge fan of this band, but back in 2009 my girlfriend (now wife) and I were backpacking through Europe and attended a little-known but incredible music festival called Haldern Pop in the middle of Germany. On the first night, Wintersleep played to an audience, of whom I would say 99.9% had not heard of them. But someone who obviously had brought a Canadian flag. And for whatever reason, during Weighty Ghost (my favourite song of theirs), the flag waving while the band was playing is still one of my most memorable live music experiences. Also, that was an incredible festival overall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Barkley Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 The first three albums are incredible. I wish I could speak of their later ones, but I honestly only listened to them a couple of times each. I'll probably end up preordering this.

dawhizz Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Anyone seen any pressing info on the split v. black? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
backpackoat Posted January 15, 2016 Author Share Posted January 15, 2016 I really liked that last album, didn't mind it at all. I don't have any of their stuff on vinyl and I want it so bad, especially Welcome to the Night Sky. Think I missed the boat though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wellnow Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Just got the untitled album off of discogs. Interested in hearing more albums from them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Untitled and Night Sky are perfect albums. They fell off for me at new inheritors and I really never gave Hello Hum a chance. Hopefully this one sounds good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeromium Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Single sounds alright. Untitled is fantastic, I get a lot of mewithoutYou vibes from it. I didn't care for Welcome to the Night Sky, but I actually liked Hello Hum for the most part. I haven't heard the other albums. I'll add this to my stream queue when it comes out, but the single doesn't really move me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingTacoMunster Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 So I took a chance on this band/album and bought the pink/green split, which I should have any day now, but gave this album 2 listens and not my cup of tea, if anyone wants it for cost/shipping (US only) let me know. thanks. I think that variant is sold out now. edit: Gone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
