Bronchitis Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 For those without IG, new Parannoul album through Topshelf on 1/28. Two color variants (blue/white mix and magenta) and black. Derek™ and topshelfsquad 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek™ Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 …But also not available yet. 😅 You can sign up to be notified when they drop over at Topshelf though. I figure the music will be available 1/28 but the PO could drop anytime before then, feasibly. (Or maybe even after, which would be weird.)

dapeebs Posted January 20, 2023 Author Share Posted January 20, 2023 (edited) We thinking it’ll ship prior to Q1 2024? TSTNPOTD is fantastic, curious to see how this turns out. New Single is a bit of a change in direction, less fuzzy shoegaze: Edited January 20, 2023 by dapeebs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presumably, though it depends on how production and record plants will fair this year. Hopefully less bottlenecking but I’m not optimistic. But if this was a remark on Topshelf’s handling of the AGBPOL preorder, I suspect they’re probably in a better spot since they’re no longer dealing with stock in legal gridlock, in a warehouse off limits to them. I think it’ll be fine. buddha4281 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Elephant Gym pre-order from March 2022 is supposed to ship this month. I have no idea but I'm not hopeful for less than 9 months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alwaysopenmouth Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Hyped for this, but not for waiting months. Thankfully Topshelf always carries standard black copies so I won’t worry about missing out whoa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dantheriver Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 Hopefully they open up orders right around when they get these in hand so I can stop reading a bunch of whiners complain about shipping delays.

Letskissthesky10 Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 I’d rather preorder a record and wait for it instead of taking the chance of not getting one. So many times I’ve pre ordered a record and by the time it comes out they’ve sold out from hype. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it’ll be fine. Nah more on their recent preorders in general. Been a few recent ones I have been interested in that are 9-12 month preorders beside AGBPOL. Knifeplay and Elephant Gym being examples. Regardless, I am more excited that Parannoul is partnering/signed with Topshelf. Was championing that ever since their last album started to make waves.

Totally forgot about ordering Elephant Gym! Just checked their site and says expected ship date is 2/20/23. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawhizz Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 Album and preorder came out over the weekend. Vinyl is sold out on Bandcamp but still available through Top Shelf, although the Magenta Magic retail exclusive variant (the most numerous variant) is sold out. Album is real good, y’all. Pressing Info: /1000 ~ Polaris Blue, Gatefold 2x LP /800 ~ 180g Black, Gatefold 2x LP /1200 - Magenta Magic, Gatefold 2x LP (Retail Exclusive) topshelfsquad 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCDELTAT Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 Got a blue, but I guess I should’ve been on the lookout earlier. Since I’ve mostly abandoned social media, I just go off a list of releases in Consequence of Sound. They mentioned it was releasing on Saturday but I wasn’t sure if it was a typo.

Derek™ Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 I have an extremely hard time believing the retail exclusive magenta sold out at Topshelf, unless they only had 1-2 copies in their shop… which seems very improbable. I was on their product page within moments of the PO going live on Friday night and it was never available. topshelfsquad 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronchitis Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 I just assumed they never had it in stock. Grabbed the blue the other day. Hope it comes out looking somewhat like the mock up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope it comes out looking somewhat like the mock up. Same x 3. Album is very good as well. I know some people couldn’t get over the lo-fi production of the last LP… but they shouldn’t have an issue this time around. Even with extra bells and whistles by way of more prevalent strings and electronics, I think it’s still in line with everything that’s drawn me to Parannoul’s previous work. I’m quite happy with it and eager to hear what repeat listens reveal. Bronchitis 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like it’s an extension of TSTNPOTD through and through, just with a slightly bigger budget and more polish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
