Guest Admin Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 THE GET UP KIDS "Simple Science" 10" UK import http://stores.channeladvisor.com/vinylhome/Items/uktradelovea? A friend of mine offered to get me a handful of copies of the UK pressing of "Simple Science". I said, sure, why not, and today, I am happy to offer a handful of copies to those of you in the states. The UK pressing is a 10" and is on black vinyl. We will have the copies in our hand in about 2 weeks. While on the topic of Simple Science, we are getting dangerously close to being out of print of the US pressings on all colors. If you have been slow to pick these up, I highly suggest you do soon. For those of you who pre-order the U.S. version, remember I will be selecting 1 test press winner. The selection will happen next week. Good luck.

brammyg Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 A 10" makes more sense to me than the 12" American pressing. I wonder if it was an accident. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seafoamgreen Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 What's this limited to? Or is it limited at all? I can't remember with all the damn versions... Too bad the tour version won't be available over here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hookups96 Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 Mine did not come numbered... and I find it funny that the both play at 45rpm. Should have just made this only on a 10inch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wayfarer Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Any physical differences between the UK RSD 10" and the UK 10" available through Banquet/Hassle Records? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
initrecords Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 My GUK 10" package came from Hassle Records today...mailer was flimsy, not labeled with "Fragile" and beat to hell, I was certain the record was broken inside as the package had been bent in half, until I opened it and realized all that was inside was a piece of cardboard and NO record at all. I emailed them, but seriously what the fuck? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rrd Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 ^damn that sucks, i got mine today also and it was in perfect shape, so surprised after seeing that thin mailer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arnoldlayne Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 I don't know what it is about UK labels and those thin mailers. Even coming as far as Ireland they get beat. I'm amazed anything makes it in one piece. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trontank Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 My GUK 10" package came from Hassle Records today...mailer was flimsy, not labeled with "Fragile" and beat to hell... Same here. I picked up my copy at the post office today and the packaging job was plain horrible. Sadly this seems to be standard and no exception to the rule with orders from the UK.
