DarrenMcCall Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 Looks that way. Nothing is sold out and doesn’t seem to be running low on stock either. Everyone that had the password has got in by now, they aren’t limited, so I shared the password. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vinyl preorders for Anberlin go away once they do the show. Sounds like this really was going to be the livestream and they did the quickest about face I've ever seen to switch it to the studio recordings. Hopefully there's still a digital download of the livestreams like Anberlin. I dunno - I severely doubt it could be an about-face. 1. getting the rights to their back catalog to press doesn't happen in 24-48 hours 2. these live shows haven't happened yet - you really think they can record them, do test pressings, get the tests approved, and then have thousands of vinyl ready to ship in 10-12 weeks? I think the text on the obi strip is very confusing but I think it's meant to imply that these re-presses are a celebration of what they are doing at the observatory. copelandkid and Juturna90 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the text on the obi strip is very confusing but I think it's meant to imply that these re-presses are a celebration of what they are doing at the observatory. That's exactly what Anberlin is doing regarding the vinyl itself. Their preorders says 10-12 weeks (been seeing 10-12 weeks on pretty much every preorder lately) which surprised me too. And that's for a vinyl of the livestream. Not a reissue of their Blackmarket album. I would not expect that that's the actual turn around now. Only reason I think it's an about face, is knowing how tight together the two bands are (between marring in to the same family, coffee shop/diner together, and a side project together) it makes sense to me that that is basically the same set up as Anberlin initially. Hell, they'll probably do this at the same venue Anberlin have been doing the livestreams at in Tampa. I agree, getting the rights would not normally be such a turn around like that, I had to deal with this stuff before for a band and it's a pain in the ass (as I'm sure you with know with KD etc). So who knows. I have no idea what deal they had in place the last time they put out these records. But hard to argue against what's on the marketing imagery.

I like my VC threads long, riddled with complaints, and jokes that get taken too seriously. The password was just to make sure that people that ordered and got it refunded could get one. As everyone else said, I'm going to guess this in "infinite" and won't sell out. They'll keep selling till the show is over. Anyone trying to grab a second copy to flip will likely be losing money at this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Upon revisiting TOCS this weekend, I don’t think the nostalgic pull is strong enough to offset the vocals or justify the cost of it. I’d just never play it, but I’m still allured by DTGL and LITSOS. Maybe. Edited July 7, 2020 by Derek™ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGhostOfRandySavage Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 4 hours ago, drewberinger said: The description literally says “original recordings pressed on 180 gram vinyl” I dunno how much clearer it has to be Could be clearer since this has been kind of a clusterfuck; most things have been "clarified" second-hand from some random person on the internet, and even though the description says that, the obi in the product mock-up photo on the site says, "Exclusive series of 3 full albums performed in their entirety via livestream." There's no reason to be snotty, dude. 4 hours ago, justin_cole12 said: I mean I confirmed 6 pages ago through the bands manager that these aren't live recordings..he personally told me they weren't. I mean...you're a person unrelated to the band on the internet confirming something second hand, and the obi above seems contradictory. Sorry to ask for clarification again.

jkteddy77 Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 Thanks to the community for lighting this post up, I certainly would have missed this without it. I've been DM'd Underoath several times in the past if they had rights to repress anytime soon... While it's not the the fabled Green pressing of TOCS, I have to day I'll be so happy once I finally get my hands on these, and I dig the smoky color even if they do show up being nearly black. Grabbed a spare box because god knows it doesn't take long for each of these albums to be sought after again 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to ask for clarification again. I mentioned that the bands manager reached out to me via email to ask some questions about the accidental early release of these through Facebook. He then proceeded to contact me through Instagram to give more context. Idk how much more valid of answers you are wanting but this is all coming directly from their manager. Here is the full conversation I've had with him. Seems they are probably lurking this thread too because he is trying to correct some misinformation.

If you’ve uploaded to Imgur you just need to right click the image itself and Open Image in New Tab to get the actual URL. It’s an obnoxious process on mobile.
