SandwichRecords Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 I just got my deluxe edition yesterday. Booklet is 50% the photos you'll see on their website, but the other 50% are Iggy's hand-written lyrics which is kind of cool. Nice 180gram pressing in a decent quality poly-lined inner sleeve. The double gatefold isn't too exciting. Another standard photo that I already saw in one of their press releases or write ups. The sleeve isn't the thick board I was hoping for. As for the music, I'm digging it. I think I was let down at first because I was expecting this Iggy/QOTSA/Arctic Monkeys explosion to take place, and it's not. Much more mellow, but Homme's guitar work is stellar, and Iggy's lyrics and voice really started to get into my head on the second spin. My favorite tracks are the last couple on side-a. Overall, I'm happy to have picked up the deluxe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scarfaceclaw Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 Is anyone able to confirm that the European deluxe is a hardback cover, while the US deluxe is a standard thickness gatefold? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's thicker than normal sleeves/gatefolds, but not as thick as the deluxe edition of QOTSA's "...Like Clockwork" for example (both 'oversized'). scarfaceclaw 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scarfaceclaw Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 Thanks for taking the time to post the pic, much appreciated! I'm specifically wanting to know what the difference is, if any, between the US deluxe and EU deluxe sleeves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lethalenforcer Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 (edited) Rough Trade has an exclusive yellow pressing of this up for preorder now (releases this Friday). Not sure of pressing qty or when this was actually announced. https://roughtrade.com/music/post-pop-depression Edited November 14, 2016 by lethalenforcer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexicondevil Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 My black copy sounds great. Not a fan of Rough Trade. You can get a black copy for an easy $20 shipped with Prime Vinyl. Also comes with an instant DL of the album. This record is a must buy, either way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a completionist, the yellow will go nicely with my deluxe. Possibly AOTY for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you're not a fan of Reinventing Axl Rose. That's a bad record for a completionist! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
