preston Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 You can pre-order Andrew Bird's new 2xlp at Fat Possum. http://fatpossum.securesites.net/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=A&Product_Code=1124-1 He's one of my favorite artists ever, so I'm pretty stoked.

scotterson Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 gah...i want the deluxe 2xcd also for 'useless creatures', but a total of $48 is killing me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
preston Posted December 3, 2008 Author Share Posted December 3, 2008 I'm at the same crossroads...This dropped upon the great deals from VC and No Idea and additional Christmas shopping are going to make me poor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monk0nuggets Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 Shit! I didn't even know he had a new record coming out! This is amazing. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotterson Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 oh no! just got an email from itunes saying they will have two exclusive tracks, one being a preorder only. i cannot buy this album three times!!!!! i am wondering if these are instrumentals from useless creatures. does anyone know of a tracklist for that?

monk0nuggets Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 uggg...I wish the vinyl version of Airchair Apocropha wasn't missing a track from the cd as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotterson Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 ^agreed, but im a kind of ok with it as its not a key track or anything. its better than having a double with three tracks per side. i wish sick of elephants was on there. i would like to see a kind of bsides LP with soldier on, and some other nonalbum tracks. self-torture/the water jet cilice is so good.

monk0nuggets Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 I would have like it if it was a double LP with three tracks a side. It could have been at 45rpm, and made it sound even cleaner, not that it sounds bad or anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest drawthecurtains Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 He's one of my favorite artists ever, so I'm pretty stoked. FULLY BACKED. I liked Bowl of Fire more than just Andrew Bird, though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked Bowl of Fire more than just Andrew Bird, though! If they could reissue "Oh, the Grandeur" on vinyl that'd be incredible. That's probably in my top five albums of all time (if such a list existed). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotterson Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 i would love to have all of the bowl of fire stuff on vinyl. i dont see it ever happening though. when i saw him live he played an amazing version of 'why'. i cant wait to see him again. and when you say reissue, does that mean it has already been pressed?

I love it. There's a song on the new one that borrows heavily from lyrics on "Oh, the Grandeur!" Yeah, I doubt Ryko did a vinyl press then, I just meant a reissue as in a re-release on vinyl....All those Fingerlings albums too--those would make awesome LPs.
