** THIS IS A PRE-ORDER FOR AND THESE LPs WON'T BE SHIPPED UNTIL MAY. Digital street date: April 27th. **

The last Elway album came out without much fanfare, the band did a short tour with Propagandhi, and then they called it a year. Strangely, in spite of a lack of recognition from the important internet tastemakers, it went on to be their best-received effort to date. The band did LESS stuff... and got more popular? Yes, it even confused us omniscient music geniuses at Red Scare Industries. So now the Colorado quartet is back with another self-produced album and this time it takes aim at the critics, naysayers, and scenester shit-talkers. They're calling the record "For The Sake Of The Bit". Hmmm. It's raw-sounding, defiant, a bit snarky, and the band is actually gonna get off their ass this time for some festivals and a tour with Dead To Me. With some new tunes and a little elbow grease, Elway might finally get acknowledged by the greats at Pitchfork and NPR. Haha, JK, those guys can still suck it.

TRACKLIST:

1. Inches
2. Hold On
3. Crowded Conscience
4. Selfish Masochistic Psychic Trauma
5. Eating Crow
6. Perfect Silence
7. Paper Guitars
8. Nobody Goes Into Meteorology For The Sunny Days

Stoked on this, meant to post it the other day when I saw the PO go up.  I thought for sure they were gonna call it a day after the last album came out and they barely toured on it.  No single out yet, but here's an article on it...

Didn't see this posted anywhere else, but Elway's new record came out last week. Streaming everywhere.

Vinyl/CD available here: https://redscare.storenvy.com/collections/9915-all-products/products/35147239-elway-the-best-of-all-possible-worlds-lp-cccp-240-1

Heard the vinyl should be shipping out this week from a reliable source, but we'll see.

The record rules.

I want to grab this, but I can't stand that Red Scare uses store envy.  Shipping is $7 and then there's the $1.99 "handling fee."  I've had red scare items in my cart several times and bailed once I got to this part.  Ok, rant over.
