All variants have been that way I believe (no specification of color in email). Red, green and orange. ryantark 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryantark Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 (edited) Just in case I'm the last one to notice this...one variant for each stripe on the cover. Red = Initial color on cultrecords.com (sold out) Orange = Gov Ball Yellow = Newbury Comics Green = Spotify (Sold out) Blue = Indie Record Stores (And, Black) Edited May 27, 2016 by ryantark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nycmale Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 Strokes pop up shop in NYC next week. Maybe they will have exclusive yellow ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hut hut hike Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 I went ahead and picked up the blue from Bull Moose. One store (The Glass Onion in AL) claims that the blue vinyl will be available only at stores that participated in Record Store Day. Makes sense. So "retail," yes, but more like "indie exclusive retail." Bull Moose says: Wonder how many are pressed on blue? Would image a 3-4 thousand... but maybe not as many if they're also getting black? I'll be keeping the following twitter search open until I fall asleep tonight, and again tomorrow, just in case yellow appears: https://twitter.com/search?f=tweets&vertical=default&q=strokes%20yellow%20vinyl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is my favorite band, but damn this seems like a little too much. Especially when we are talking about $23 for basically 3 songs. 2 minutes ago, hut hut hike said: I went ahead and picked up the blue from Bull Moose.

I am also wondering how many copies there will be of the blue. Regardless, as others have stated, it is cheaper to buy the blue version from bullmoose than the standard black copy from Cult, so I just went with that.

nycmale Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 So far we know green is /500 but don't know how many red , blue and orange were pressed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mourning Wood Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 I see one blue on ebay for $100 and none sold so far? Is that right? Also bull moose should probably tighten up their definition of "quickly" lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orange is still available, and perhaps they'll set aside some to sell at the concert itself. Blue, several thousand... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nycmale Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 I guess it's possible all colors are out of 500 since we only have the one confirmation so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djghost1976 Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 I thought that I saw Bullmoose put up a tweet earlier that said something like 'Based on how quickly people are ordering, it's hard to imagine there will be enough to go around'. I'm assuming it was for the blue variant. So maybe they aren't even sure how many they're getting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nycmale Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 True. But how many people know about bullmoose selling blue online outside of here ? Green went out on email to a ton of people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lethalenforcer Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 To follow up on some pressing # info, a UK retailer on eBay is/was selling 10 copies of a "limited" black version, and Rough Trade's listing notes that it's limited to 2000 in the UK. Guessing theirs is black too since it doesn't specify color. Yellow at the pop-up shop sounds realistic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cobannaboc Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 The Strokes made a playlist on Spotify titled "Future Present Past" nine days ago which also includes a link to the preorder page. I didn't get the Spotify variant email and I'm guessing it was just sent out to people subscribed to their page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
