Repress of First Temple as well. Good thing, my copy from Equal Vision is warped to shit. Now I just need them to repress Pink Lemonade after YEARS of saying they would.

Mine is too, and noisy as hell. And yes, bring on the Pink Lemonade. I think I'm brave enough to try some of that.

Hey folks

 

Just a quick update, the initial pressing of Penance is now sold out, so we're going to increase the printing amount to avoid people paying crazy prices on eBay etc.

 

Thanks again for your support and helping spread the word 😃

 

Mike

Good on you guys for keeping up with the demand :)

 

On the topic of albums going for ridiculous $$$, Pink Lemonade could sure use some repress love...

Years ago I did a vinylcollective secret Santa where my secret Santa sent me a mix CD with Sweet#hart on it.  Was into First Temple for a while after that, but it’s been a long long time since I’ve listened to it. After seeing this thread, I gave the album another go and still dig it enough to order a copy of the repress.

There were a couple of winks from them when people were asking for a reissue on Instagram.

Thanks, yep PL repress is definitely happening. We are working with some other people on this one so it's on a different timeline to the other records. We're planning to announce details on 1 October.

 

Additional Penance LP copies are now available from the band store if anyone missed out: www.closureinmoscow.bandcamp.com

Yep, just leave a message with your second order requesting to have them shipped together and you'll get a partial shipping refund when they're sent

 

Alternatively, email me at [email protected] with your order details and I'll make a note / issue the refund for part of the shipping cost

Will you guys be doing new artwork for PL, similar to FT?  Or will it be the original?

PL on standard weight black.  Please and thank you.

Ah sorry to disappoint you in advance, maybe next time! These versions will be very colourful haha.

 

I imagine you prefer black for audio quality?  We try to avoid certain types of colouring/designs which have produced audio issues in the past, so usually there's not much difference unless we do something truly wacky (which does still happen sometimes).

Can you say how many in total will be pressed?
