Gumbo72203 Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 (edited) YES! Finally!!! Pre-orders are live for Leech's remastered "The Stolen View". long, long out of print, and very pricey on Discogs (if you can even find it). USA pre-orders will be run by A Thousand Arms. Stay tuned for more info!!! Approx. 25 pieces will come here for them. First single drops 10/2 after pre-orders go live (which is unusual, but hey...) and it will be "The Man with the Hammer" USA RESIDENTS PURCHASE HERE: https://www.athousandarms.com/collections/distribution/products/leech-the-stolen-view-remaster-2xlp https://leechofficial.bandcamp.com/album/the-stolen-view-remaster 2xLP 180gram pink/blue Edited October 22, 2020 by Gumbo72203 lethalenforcer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gumbo72203 Posted September 24, 2020 Author Share Posted September 24, 2020 Apparently "The Man with the Hammer" will be the first single. Their FB page makes it seem as if it's supposed to be out already.... so standby! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alwaysopenmouth Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 This used to be a band I’d only listen to a single album of, but over and over again when I started getting into post-rock. I’m glad they’re still kicking around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I scrolled through what’s on Spotify and didn’t see any titles that I could remember. This is gonna bother me all week now lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say it's a bit more ambient and spacey, but just as good. You should definitely check it out.

Listened to The Stolen View yesterday, and that was the album I’d forgotten about. It was great!

Gumbo72203 Posted October 19, 2020 Author Share Posted October 19, 2020 Link is live! check the OP. It's nearly half-sold out already in the span of hours. So, move fast if you are international! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess that makes sense from a “we don’t want to oversell” perspective but it does seem to me that they could probably gauge interest or volumes of pre-orders between now and then. Did you end up ordering from the bandcamp? Also, does A1KA still use any coupon codes? That could be a deciding factor for me. This is what... about $50 PPD otherwise?

I'm sure if you have an old code it may still work, I'm not sure. Leech said about 25 copies will probably get sent but that hasn't been finalized. I'm not sure they're really used to working in this sort of manner haha. But he assured me, there will be copies coming over here. I think it's around $50 from bandcamp, yeah.

I don't believe Leech have a big-enough following to warrant all 25+ copies vanishing immediately – I like my odds checking out with A1KA. Half a hundred is just a little too steep for 1 record these days, even if it is a double LP that looks to be well produced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drds89 Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 I'll be one of the 25 for sure. "A1KA" for 10% off? Seems like that still worked last time I ordered. Wonder like Derek said how long it will take to sell through 25 US copies? Might be worth waiting for Cyber Monday discount... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With that A1KA coupon that Don reminded me of, I think it was $35 and change. Quite a bit better than $50. Pretty pumped. 6 hours ago, twatay said: Fuck yea! Loved their split with Thou! Ordered! Not the same Leech but your overuse of enthusiasm suggests that you're well aware of this already, so. twatay 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The next 2 full lengths after this are incredible. The early stuff has moments, but it's more weird Krautrock sorta stuff. But this, Gates, and FBOFW are fucking stellar.
