Not upset this was the only one in the UK store, cause I think I like it more than the red. Tasty (and jelly, as mine hasn't shipped yet). Does it sound alright?

DecayToDeath Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 Got my red today, gotta say to my ears it sounds like a marked improvement over the pink pressing I have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seanbo Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 The new CFUTF sounds flat to me. A-B Life sounds amazing though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ntslash Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 My red copy sounds pretty good when it isn't skipping and popping. Unfortunately, there are quite a few very bad skips. This is probably the worst offender in my entire collection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mars Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 Got my red but I haven't had a chance to listen to it yet - looks fabulous, hopefully the sound is alright. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

copelandkid Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 just went back to their website on a hunch and on the Foxes cassette product page there's now (or maybe there always was and i missed it?) a big red notice: SHIPPING IN JANUARY so that's that i suppose, sherlock out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This band has the absolute worst luck with deluxe vinyl editions, holy shit. On the plus side, we're getting a spare "off-centered" slipcase. Already scheming of ways to repurpose it to hold other records, potentially, or something else entirely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I factored in up to +6 months of buffer before I’d allow myself to be bummed. I do wish I had split my order up so I could check out the single LP version, but it seems like most people are pretty unimpressed by it anyways.

rcafilm Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 I know shipping is a factor, but... wouldn't it make sense to send out the full, misprinted set (with a note saying it's not the final product, of course) so people could at least have the vinyl in-hand, and then mail out replacement slipcases when they become available? Especially if we're going to end up with both cases anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially if we're going to end up with both cases anyway. Increased time, effort and cost. They aren’t amazon. Can’t blame them for pushing the whole thing. Now what they could do is offer to let people choose to wait or to just receive the bad slip case version now with no corrected case shipped later. But they don’t seem to want to compromise their vision. copelandkid, KyleHL and daegor 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The good news is that on January 7th all one-thousand copies arrived safe and sound at our storage facility here in Philadelphia. The bad news is that due a proofing error by the printers, Vasily Kafanov’s iconic album artwork was printed off-center and is mis-aligned on the slipcase, creating unexpected and off-centered margins for the border. Some could see this as a small gripe. Some might not even notice (at first). But we do not believe this end result meets our standards of quality (especially for a limited collector’s edition). The plan now is to address these alignment issues have the slipcases re-printed and re-shipped to us. Under normal circumstances this would only delay delivery a couple weeks, but since we do all our own fulfillment in-house we will be delayed even further due to our upcoming time on the road with Thrice which starts at the end of January and continues through end of the next month. This means is that these collector’s editions will not be shipping until sometime in March when we return. For whatever it may be worth to you, anyone who purchased this collector’s edition will now be receiving both the the off-centered slipcases as well as the newly re-printed version. And it should be stated that we have inspected all the other elements of the packaging and they do live up to our quality standards and we are eager for you all to get your hands and ears on this very special release.

OU818 Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 I only bought Untitled Deluxe because of this thread and it was well worth it. Should I get in on this wait too? Tempting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rcafilm Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 If you're all ready to do this again, they've posted another teaser video. Very similar to last time, but with rain sounds à la Messes of Men. Date is Friday, March 13th. IIRC from last time, that should be the pre-order date. Or it could be something completely different? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminded me of "Messes of Men" also. It's likely some sort of reissue of Brother, Sister. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CatsNJazz Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 I'm guessing it's the Brother, Sister Tour announcement, possibly a deluxe version to go with Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcafilm Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 I had forgotten that they were planning a Brother, Sister tour in "late spring" so it may just be a PO for tickets. But they did also mention in that same statement that they had "some special re-issues" planned so I'm still willing to bet there's vinyl to be had.

DecayToDeath Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 In the time since they mentioned a Brother Sister tour, Foxes grew to overtake it as my favorite. Now I want a Foxes tour! danmpie7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
