I don’t think we’re going to get any type of variants for this one. Just got a feeling. Exactly, this is only being distributed by polyvinyl 🤔, so we won't get another variant or other thing until this gets sold out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danbass Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 Was so lucky to see Matt on his latest living room tour, and I still wasn't even expecting this. Yowza. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thievesdont Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 Its not even the novelty of a new HUM record after 22 years, its the fact that they just dropped an actual MASTERPIECE on us.

sugareggs Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 After the first listen I have zero regrets on the blind preorder. Legit had some goosebump moments on the first play through. The boys are definitely back in town Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcpherson123 Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 Listening now and up to track 3 and I'm convinced I need to get this. Getting heavy Jesu vibes. That's not a bad thing at all. I wasn't sure what super grown up Hum was going to sound like. It sounds good. Little bonus for analog nerds is that its highly likely this release is AAA.

DecayToDeath Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 Where are y'all seeing that it's limited? I'm as excited as anyone, but I don't wanna be too hasty to jump on $35 lest it hang around for a while/gets another variant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just going off of the available stock in the shop. It was 2k when it first went up, and then was bumped up to 3k. So far 1600+ have been sold in 2 hours. Seems like they'd be incredibly dumb for this to be limited at all. DecayToDeath 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polyvinyl is definitely known to do variants, Early Bird pre-order colors, etc. Considering that it's been 23 years since we got a new Hum record, I would speculate that it's being released on Matt's terms and how he sees fit. If a variant popped up anytime soon, I'm sure PV would be very easy to work with. I've never had to cancel an order with them, but their customer service has always been on-point. Guess it just depends on how comfortable you are having them hold your $39 hostage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got a text from a buddy with the PO link while I was driving and was afraid it had already sold out. Pulled the shit over and ordered with haste. Just now listening. Halfway through track 3 and my mind is blown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek™ Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 Still feel like this release was anything but rushed though, considering how long it's been and how we've all been kept in the dark. Part of me would love to see some kind of translucent purple press done in the same vein as that Downward repress from a few years back... but if this is all we get, I'm very content and would rather hop on it than potentially regret it later. FOMO will be the death of me. About to queue it up now for a first spin... jrodan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He also did the latest Caspian album. Along with Turnover and Nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
