Oblivions Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 I would love a 7" with 3-4 of the acoustic demos/live cuts they did with Vincent Moon and posted on their pre-release site for Boxer. But I'm guessing it will prob be the Mistaken for Strangers/Blank Slate single or something. Or a single for the upcoming record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timsimmons Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 (edited) I hope its not something on the Virginia EP. What I would love is for a couple of demos from the Tarquin demos. Maybe 1 of the unreleased tunes (Don't Cry Honey/Swiss Miss). Edited July 19, 2017 by timsimmons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuckle Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 (edited) Would be kind of disappointed if this ends up as Boxer. I love the album but this would mean three months in a row where the ROTM is readily available through other outlets, and sometimes at a much cheaper cost than the VMP membership (frills excluded of course). They will really have to make this special, beyond just a 7", IMO. But heck, they may pull it off...

aopps42 Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Also agree with the others that I'll be a little disappointed if it's Boxer. Solid album , but doesn't really move the needle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drewberinger Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 I have the yellow variant of Boxer but the National is my favorite band so I won't be mad if the ROTM is an expanded version of Boxer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fiona Apple was a first time pressing and is not available anywhere else. edit: nevermind, I guess Fiona Apple will be 4 months ago if this next one is the boxer.

timsimmons Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 (edited) Aren't most of their ROTM readily available though? A quick look back it seems Gorillaz/Fiona Apple are the outliers and most stuff was available outside VMP. Maybe im wrong, but I think before those 2 Four Tet was the only exclusive release they had. Of course I mean their ROTM being variant pressings aside. Edited July 19, 2017 by timsimmons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That being said, I wouldn't be surprised if it's something else entirely... Boxer is just what the masses are guessing.

Of course I mean their ROTM being variant pressings aside. I'd say that their ROTMs are readily available around 1/3 of the time in some form elsewhere AND at a reasonable cost. Panda Bear and Main Source were either hard to find, or their previous presses were pricey. All new releases obviously fall into the 'readily available' category; but they often also do their own remastering (Nina) and put together an awesome packages (The Books) for reissues that are available which does warrant ROTM treatment. That said, their job at finding hidden gems or records that NEED a pressing is going to become harder and harder as more of the 90's/00's stuff is repressed.

danyc Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 (edited) Late to the party I realize, but anyone have Fiona Apple - Tidal they don't need and want to sell for non gouging prices?

Worth a shot I suspect. It's still available in their store. If you're not currently a member they announce their August AOTM today. See if it's something you like than sign up and you can still add Fiona. danyc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrodan Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 lol, a grey press with nothing new about it other than color and a 7" with songs (prolly the same two as the 7" being sold at shows) from the new album. HARD PASS. thesewoodenideas 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charles Barkley Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 I would have picked up the repress had it had some new tracks on it, after all I'm sure my old copy could use to be replaced, but I'm not sure if i would sign up for VMP again just for the tracks that ill be listening to in a couple of months.
